We had to earn our pocket money but making our beds and keeping hoovering, dusting etc. I think we got £2 a week which was pretty generous then. I used to spend mine on comics and penny tray sweets.

We could earn extra by doing bigger jobs like cleaning the car and cleaning the "pan cupboard" which was all very well till I scratched my dads car pretty badly by cleaning the roof with a mop!!!
