Never had pocket money, we had to earn it. Running errands or collecting scrap.

Yes, we were always trying to make a shilling. Chopping wood for firewood bundles or growing winter lettuce,

This surely does make me remember my childhood, my sisters and brother at an early age, our interactions, our going to school. Fun memories.

love this. When I was little the World was still recovering from the war and then the Korean War...(since WW11 Australia has always joined the USA in every War) drought years etc. Everyone was poor. I never thought much about it.

Good afternoon
It's great for such a young mind to have the knowledge of earning a buck and what being poor is all about. Going to school, making a few pennies from working papers, and an eagerness for life will take Helen very far if she so chooses.

Good Afternoon
Life can be hard but I think we learn at an early age that there can be rewards. Great writing!
