1. Having been brought up in a relatively undesirable area, I had very few friends who could have been then described as anything but poor. This was meant that I was always impressed by wealth and large houses.
2. On one day I went to a folk music concert with some friends. There I met a girl called Alison who invited several of us to her house for a cup of coffee. To my amazement, her house was huge. It was located in beautiful countryside and had two entrances at the front. Although Alison came from a wealthy family, she never looked down on people. It did not take long for us too to become friends.
