Early Life
Terry Morris was born in Llanelli in September 1965. He attended Lakefield Infant and Primary School before moving on to Graig Comprehensive School, Llanelli. Self-confessed as ‘not the best academic’, Terry lost interest in school during his teens and only stayed on his final year, aged 15, to study woodwork with his favourite teacher ‘Mr Evans’ (Mike Evans), lovingly known as ‘Killer’ (due to his Size 13 plimsole!)
Terry left school at 16 and joined the Parachute Regiment in which he served for five years.
During the following years he worked in many different jobs, including as a labourer for his father’s building firm, before settling as a welder for Llanelli-based sound and lighting firm PA Installations.

—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
“Poor devil, poor devil, he’s best gone out of a life where he rides his rocking-horse to find a winner.”
