Great memories from Betty, from the 1930s and 40s. Tenement life in The Pleasance, on the southside of Edinburgh, where her grandprents lived. Every child's dream- her granny had a sweet shop! Betty's evocative stories give a real sense of what it was like to be brought up in a close knit family before World War Two. Also what it was like to be one of the families who moved out from the crowded tenement to one of Edinburgh's new housing schemes. We also hear about her wartime stays with her aunt and uncle and the many visits to airbases in England. A child amongst the fighter and bomber aircraft.
As always, fascinating memories from a member of North Edinburgh Dementia Care's Seagrove Centre.
