Answer 3

ok..so - you have to watch the film Angela's Ashes...its a very true account of what life was like years ago in Belfast.

my mum was born & raised in N.Ireland,,she was born in 1937...the poverty was dreadful..and some days - they didnt have food.

& just like the film..the children would go to the railway station & hope that coal would fall from the trains - so that they could collect it up & take it home & have a fire in their homes to keep warm...oh boy - these people really did have a tough time.

p.s. interesting fact i think...fabulous footballer - George Best - was born & raised there...he was a legend!
