I was my parents second child so born at home, living in the Suffolk countryside the midwife failed to arrive in time so a friend of my mother assisted with the birth.

My parents wanted to acknowledge her help when naming me. The lady's name was Eillen Hornbuckle, so not much scope there for a boys name. Her maiden name was Tristram so thats what I got! I hated through most of my childhood as I was endlessly teased for it at school!
