I AM nearly 68 and when I was a little girl, which doesn’t seem that long ago, I heard my mum talking with her friends about a family that lived on ‘poverty street’.
I asked my mum where that was and she answered, ‘I pray you never find it'.
In the situation with the government this year, I think a lot of families will find it.
