I got 10/- a week (50p) from my dad until I left school in 1959. When I started working I gave my mum my wage each month (we weren't paid direct into the bank then) and got back £2 a week, out of which I had to pay my train fares, until I was 18 when I started paying "board" - £2-10s (£2.50) a week.
