In episode 16 we return to the vivid and entertaining story telling of Jeanette. This time its all about growing up in the mining village of Newton, Midlothian, in the 1950s and 60s. Childhood in the village, the mischief she got up to: including stealing cabbages and turnips from the farmer's fields and taking a dare to jump a barbed wire wall. She still has the scar on her knee from that adventure. We hear a local piece of rhyming slang and how to prepare the house for hogmanay visitors.
