00:00 I'm with Keith and I'm in Lilianne's coffee bar in Victoria Road. Keith, I believe you
00:07 came up with an idea of making people a little bit warmer this Christmas by going out and
00:11 giving them some hats and gloves, is that correct?
00:14 Yeah it is, yeah.
00:15 What made you think of it?
00:16 When I was homeless before on Christmas we had nothing to wake up to, it was just, it
00:23 was cold, it was lonely, there was no warm drinks, there was nothing, do you know what
00:26 I mean, it's after everyone, so when Trevor asked me to try and think of an idea of what
00:31 I would have liked, just like a warm drink and a scarf or something, you know, just to
00:36 make you feel better.
00:38 What was it like for you Christmas when you were homeless?
00:41 Lonely, sad.
