The worst thing of all of this for me, it that I now live in the town where I was baptised and drive past the church most days so get reminded of this huge injustice for me.

It's good question Astral. Certainly one of the things you can do is ask that the record of your baptism to be removed from the offical records in the church. Good luck with that one as it will bring you in to contact with those you want to remove yourself from.
I think your post begs a bigger question. What gives our parent the right to baptise us? I asked my mother this and her answer was "It was the thing to do" I have some friends who are born again, and no one in their church can be baptised until they are old enough to make the decision themselves. As part of a service they will thank God for the delivery of the child.
