[QUOTE="JohnEGreen, post: 1950205, member: 223921"] When my father died in 1963 my mother and I were destitute my mother had not a penny to her name she went to the social services and was given the princely sum of 7 shillings and six pence about £9 in todays money I think this was to keep the two of us for a week pay the rent? and by food and electricity and gas I wish there had been food banks and charity shops we could of accessed back then that is one reason all my clothes that no longer were usable by me went to a charity shop and I would be quite happy to wrap a coat round a tree or lamppost now because I remember what it was like to have nothing.
