  • I was born in Dundee and I’ve basically been in care for most of my life. I first went into care when I was three or four, my mum was on drugs and that. I quite enjoyed it, it wasn’t as bad as people made out. The staff were all nice and that. I went to loads of different ones, seven or eight different homes. I was in care till I was about fifteen, and I’ve been on the streets ever since. I’ve travelled about all over Britain in the last three and half years. <br />
<br />
Being on the streets is not the greatest thing in the world, but it’s not as bad as people make out. When you’re on the streets, everyone looks after you. All the homeless people look out for each other. I’ve never really been on my own, there have always been people I could go to if I was in trouble or anything like that. It’s always been homeless people, people on the streets that I could go to. In the winter it would be really really cold. I’ve been all over Scotland, and I’ve been in London four or five times, mainly in London when I’ve been in England. I just sort of keep moving about. There’s nothing to keep us in one place, if you’ve no got anybody to look after. I’ve not got any responsibilities, that’s what it’s like travelling about. It’s not as bad as what people make out.<br />

My mum’s dead, she died about a year and a half ago now. I’ve no other family, well, I don’t really know. It’s always just been me, by myself.
