£20 a week.

I was definitely much better at saving money.

What did you save your money in?
I used to have a Piggybank.

I remember buying a light blue pager, which was a device to send text messages.

Did you ever ask your parents for a raise?
No, I wouldn’t dare!

What was the most expensive item you ever bought with your pocket money?
Apart from the pager which was about £80, I remember buying a pair of trainers which cost nearly £100!

I think I’ve had a bank account all of my life.
