The family moved to Norwich, Norfolk when Humphrey was nine and attended Framingham Earl High School and the Sixth Form at The Hewett School, Norwich. During his time at school he also worked as a paperboy and became interested in the media. For two years, Humphrey was subjected to bullying from other students and transferring to other schools resolved his problem. When he was 16, Humphrey got a job at McDonalds and was fired for poor communication skills. Later he worked in the position of a waiter.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“the cluttered eyes
of early mysterious night.”
—Imamu Amiri Baraka (b. 1934)
“To drift with every passion till my soul
Is a stringed lute on which all winds can play,
Is it for this that I have given away
Mine ancient wisdom, and austere control?
Methinks my life is a twice-written scroll
Scrawled over on some boyish holiday”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
