Everybody has a story to tell. Once Upon A Time In The Muirton is a collection of memories gathered and told by the people of Muirton in their own voice and in their own style. These podcasts capture the oral history, spoken by the people who lived, worked, played, laughed and cried in a 20th century housing scheme. Inevitably, memories being what they are, mean occasional mistakes on names, dates and locations will be made. But every story told is done with the best intentions

Episode 16 - 52 years of friendship and counting - Omar Dafalla and John McLeish

Hello everyone, sorry it’s taken a wee bit longer than planned to get this latest podcast out for your listening pleasure. We’re sure you’ll agree after a listen it’s worth the wait. 😊

In this episode you get to hear from 2 long-standing friends of 52 YEARS and counting, Omar Dafalla and John McLeish. They are both lovely storytellers. We did a bit of filming and podcasting with these Auld Muirton Bairns which is why the sound fluctuates a couple of times. But it takes nothing away from the quality of Omar and Johns retelling of their time growing up in Muirton.

You’ll hear about Racism, Scone Aerodrome, Cross 70 bike, Muirton Park, Andy Robbins, Hercules The Bear, Kendo Nagasaki, Big Daddy, Giant Haystacks, Cappy Oswald, Garden Olympics,dead man’s fall ,polio jags, lumps of sugar, fray bentos pies and much, much more.

Happy Listening, Enjoy.
