Yeah man. One parent a full time skilled worker, with either nighttime rates or overtime, plus another with a part-time wage was enough for a family of four to have a pretty comfortable life. We were never big spenders, mind - didn't go on holiday every year, and when we did go it tended to be little caravan parks in yorkhire or wales, almost out of season at the end of september :p I don't recall that feeling like much of a hardship though - there was always plenty of other stuff to do of a summer.
