Have you ever searched for your name on chatgpt5 with a deep dive?
In years past you had to pay a private investigator for stuff like that.
Research biography of "Darren Ingall" 27/8/25 - proud of that!
My latest claim to fame a few church readings.
The first home extention I ever built..

Mayors award 2025, I'm pround of that!

You can tell a lot about somebodys by their facebook profile (including how old it is and why it might be private).
I can't put the stuff I did with the Scouts here as it includes lots of pictures of children and as such they can't give me permission to publish their images/ videos but I did about 2 years with Guildford Scouts. Their leader when my kids needed help really went the extra mile to help out taking time off work and all sorts. This was just kind of paying them back.
I can't put the stuff I have done with St Peters Church here either as it includes pictures/videos of children who as children can't consent to my use of the same. I've been part of the church for nearly 20 years. When I once needed help there was this chap who like jumped through hoops to help, not to mention the vicar! I'm pretty involved with the church now. You know kind of pay it back.
Something else I did for kiddy group at church. As it contains images of children who can't consent to my use of the same I have only posted the picture / video of the wooden plaques I made for them to polish and keep as a memento of holiday club at church 2025.
I spent most of my working life (32 years) here as happy as a pig in muck working as a field service engineer: Robertsons of Bramley. I really enjoyed that job. I was just like left alone and trusted to get on with it. I made my own decisions about almost everything. I had really good support from managment, flexy time when I needed it, just put a line in my diary, I'm leaving at xx on Tuesday. Nobody ever said anything, they were so supportive. I mean the only time I ever got greif was when I let the van get dirty. In 32 years I only really had a run in with one customer who started swearing at me the minute I walked in to repair his washing machine. "I suggest you find somebody else to repair your machine sir, I will not be here again!" I mean this customer clearly had issues but I got no grief for walking out on them. I retired age 50 during covid and I still get staff discount to this day.
Why the charity work? well after my own childhood it feels good to help others and is a refelection of newtons law of relativity. 'Every action has an equal and opposite reaction." Oh and I did pretty well out of my divorce too. Call me a Christian, call me a fake. it matters little but to be of a mindset (all the time your not being taken for a ride) 'Its better to help others, maybe in need or unable to help themselves than it is to help yourself' makes me feel good about myself. I make mistakes like everyone else and if I do I'll generally put my hands up and do my best to put them right. I genuinely believe there is an omnipotent force a bit like gravity or space that sees everything and will one day judge us. Some people refer to this as 'God.' Respect to you if you think differently. I generally don't push my ideas on others but hey as your here :-).
Well there you go with the more positive stuff.
Now some are of the opinion you should keep less positive stuff off your CV. I don't, one lie or omission leads to another and so on. Before you know it you've tied yourself up in knots and look shifty. Lets be honest anybody with a brain can normally tell if your hiding something. It is what it is and these days I really don't care who knows (save children of course.) Honestly 99 times out of 100 I will normally walk away from strife but there are a few times when you have to fight back.
One lesson I have learnt in life is that most (not all) people when it comes down to it are short sighted and will throw you under the bus to help themselves. I often look ahead and plan for it. KARMA will normally given time bight these people in the behind and it can be good to see. Some call that putting your trust in God, each to their own.
We were all kids once. This is my story: Child abuse trigger warning!.
The BBC news report with regard to Berrow Wood School. (40 years the authorities knew about this place abusing kids and did nothing!)
The BBC video interview with regard to Berrow Wood School.
Chatgpt 5 (deep dive) on 'Berrow Wood School'
A little bit more personal but my ex. Linda Ruth was not expecting this when she cried rape in the divorce, she lost everything! even had to pay my costs too. KARMA or what!
Have you ever suffered a nervous breakdown? Caused as a result of my being falsely accused of child abuse by a school teacher who would not even pick the phone up for my son. It turned out mum, my wife was more interested in an affair than defending me when it was put to her I was abusing our son by a school teacher who ran away with an idea and just did not listen! That was until I got the world and his wife involved. I mean I went for broke, the prior school head, prior teacher, scout leader, took my son to a shrink, he took time off work and came into school as well. The prior school head like dropped everything and got the lads prior schoolteacher in the next meeting. I registered a dedicated website published it and wrote to the head of Social Services asking for an opinion and then wrote a book and published that too. I then sent a copy to the social workers. I had some chap who was clearly in support judging by the little he charged me for it, narrate it for me.This is what microsofts AI thing thinks about my book All they ever had to do was say "Sorry, Darren buddy we made a mistake and got things wrong", then I would have gone back to sleep. But no, Mr Moloney the head of George Abbot school at the time wrote to me stating 'I am not quite sure what I would be apologising for.' No mention of the fact I over the prior 2 months had requested a number of times the school make a simple phonecall to my only support for the child. After my 5th request the teacher refused and seemingly accused me of child abuse. Well I had twigged the wifes affair by now and kind of saw red after receiving that. One day I was going to tell my story. Maybe read the last chapter in my book and you might get the idea. I had to wait a few years until my youngest child finished school as it would not have been good for him my going off on one publicly while he was still in school.
He might be autistic, I really don't think so but listen to the support I got from my son, the lad I supposedly abused. (age 12) at the time when he finally got to face his mum. I kept that off the internet till he turned 21, now in his 30s. I knew nothing about it until he handed me a memory stick.
Sometimes a school gets things wrong and finds themselves having to apologise to a parent. This obvously goes against company policy but this lady kind of understood where I was coming from.
The social workers could not run away and hide fast enough. Pick a fight with me will you? Not a problem, I'll get as many people as possible involved and publish it all over the internet! Then I'll send your boss a link and ask for an opinion! I hope that social worker got a good telling off! Stupid woman!
Caught the social workers out in a lie so published that on the internet too, then gave them a link and asked them for opinion. You can only walk away from a fight for so long! I mean we all make mistakes, All you do is say "Sorry we messed that up" and do your best to sort things out. Not the social workers, Never apologise for anything in case it makes you liable. Read the letter in reply to the meeting linked to the left. More like an excuse than an apology.
What I did not know at the time is where you might go to if you have issues with incompentant social workers who do not listen and run away with the wrong idea. Lets be honest thats just another system of bureaurcacy infected with many delays and people who just pass the batton to each other. If there is an issue with a child on Monday, it wants to be dealt with on Monday, not 10 days later when the child has forgotton all about it, reports have been written, re written, shortened passed from pillar to post and ommisions made! With hindsight I should have just written to the school head telling the school everything and copied it to as many people as possible at the first problem but I so did not want my kids to come from a broken home or pick a fight with the school or for that matter tell anybody about my childhood or my wifes affair. I had to in the end as my son's special needs teacher blanked me at every opportunity. I had so lost all trust in the school by the time they led my autistic? I'm not so sure son on with reward for saying anything they wanted to hear. I did not see it at the time but they did jump after I went off on one. and found myself in front of the prior school head and teacher in tears. I'll bet they gave that social worker a hard time. In the meeting with the school head she said not a word and looked seriously like she was bricking it. 4 days later they had closed their case. CAMHS a week later. Its a shame the wife bolted but hey she had an easier life on the horison. 2 weeks after the divorce at Gretna green without even telling our children she married him, her elderly boss :-), you have to laugh. He is a lot older and lives in a council bungalow in what amounts to a retirement village paying rent.
On a brighter note I got my apology from the school eventually. I might have been polite but I was on the war path and had to feel for these two.
This is what can happen if you do whats called a deep dive searching for somebody on Microsoft copilot.
A deep dive on my childhood abuser
The only ISP I recommend. Hardly ever down and great support
Microsofts AI assistant, better than Google! maybe search for 'darren ingall' on it a great easy way to find out about someone.
Maybe your old school and might prefer to Google me?
I really don't want your money and I'm not looking for a job either Maybe send it (your money) to the NSPCC / childline? and please help the next family or child. You see when I was a child they did not exist and the social workers just blanked my mother and stepfather having written to them 3 times asking for help.(see the last chapter in my book).
