Looking back we didn't have that much money at all, it was just me my mum and brother and when I was really little we lived in a hostel for homeless families and then moved into my mums friends room until we got a council house. But I only remember the council house, I never even noticed how poor we were, my mum was amazing and was positive and always made the best of things. I lived on second hand clothes but I was a tom boy and didn't really take much notice of the clothes I was wearing. My entertainment was playing with all the other children on the estate on the green outside out house which didn't cost anything, it was great, because all the families around us were in the same situation I didn't feel like I had any less. By the time I got to secondary school and was more socially aware my mum had done a degree in social work and got decent job so we had a lot more money. I loved my childhood.
