We begin with the subject of tripe and offal. Do we like it? Do we hate it? Its an episode all about food. How to make it last or eek it out in times gone by. Mince and tatties, pots of soup and stovies for tea. Thanks to Jinty, Anna , Nessie, Barbara, May and Colin for more great memories.

Join us in a good old blether about christmas and Hogmanay, in years gone by. From hand knitted christmas gifts, whether you wanted them or not, to out of tune sing songs on Hogmanay. The memories flow from- Jinty, Anna, Nessie, Barbara, May and Colin.

In the episode we spend some time exploring Abbeyhill in the 1950's and 60s. The shops, businesses, picture houses and school. Nancy tells us of her teenage travelling- to London and Dublin. Dancing up town. School days and her early jobs. Her early married life in a room and kitchen in Leith and her eventual move to Portobello.

Allen was brought up in the Parson's Green area of Edinburgh. His childhood memories include his many escapes from his parent's garden, at the age of six, to watch the trams at Northfield Broadway. His many delivery jobs, before and after school- milk, rolls and papers. An abortive attempt to become a car mechanic and his eventual job at a printers. Part two will follow!

Nessie paints a vivid picture of her childhood in Leith. Starting off in Tollbooth Wynd, at the bottom of Kirkgate, in a single end. At the age of four the family had moved to Burns Street. She tells us all about life at home, of gas light, out side toilets. Her father being away at war, in Burma. The great sense of community but also how family life wasn't always the easiest. It's another evocative step back to bygone Leith.

Shelagh was born and brought up in Pitt Street, Edinburgh, which is now the north part of Dundas Street. It was an area ful of tenements, shops and industry. We hear about Nan McKenzies's grocer shop, watching the dancing at the Ross bandstand in Princes Street Gardens. The dangers of jiving at the Palais, when your partner forgets to warn you he's about to hurl you over his shoulder. Her time at Ferranti as an engineer. It an episode full of laughter.

Anna was partially named after the officer her father served as a batman to in WW2. We hear about the shell shock her father suffered from, her early marriage after a holiday romance. Her short term jobs and her love of dancing. Its a great snap shot of growing up as a young adult in the 1960s.

It's Raymond in this episode of The Seagrove Sessions. From early life in St James's Square, living on the 5th floor in an attic room with a shared toilet, to the luxury of moving to a new house in Niddrie. We hear all about his long career as a time served plumber and exactly what the lethal concoction 'monkey dung' was. His long hobby of wrestling. Success at the British wrestling championship and the strange sight of Big Daddy emerging from a mini car. Enjoy and please remember to share.
