 Despite being a successful market trader, Barry Eaton found himself penniless and on the streets.
His homelessness was due to the breakdown of a relationship. Unlike many of the homeless people Barry met at this time, he had neither drink nor drug problems and furthermore, he was considerably older than most of them.
