The Story of Simon Francis Mann
Simon Francis Mann was born on June 26th, 1952. His family wealth came from brewing and right around the same time Simon was born, his family sold their family business to a big company in return for a pile of cash and a seat on the board. This meant that Simon grew up very comfortable, but it also meant that he would need to find a new career for himself when he grew up taking over the family business would not be an option. In the grand tradition of all fancy English people, his parents sent him the fuck away to spend his childhood at Eaton, which is frequently referred to as the nursery of England's gentlemen.
