Episode 26: Friends: From boys to men! Stories of Friendship, Food and Family!
Welcome to episode 26. We had the pleasure of being with long time friends Steve McKechnie, Tony Quinn and Mark 'Sykes' Sandeman.
They have known each other since the 1960's and had plenty of anecdotes to share.
Stories of Corporal punishment, dirty protests and sex education. And that is just in the first 30 minutes 😁
Through the memories shared, the importance family and friendship regularly comes through.
Steve, Tony and Sykes take us on a journey of young boys growing up into young men and some of the adventures along the way.
From a time when belting kids at school was accepted as normal, creating maps to recover wayward hit golf balls making some money, to growing up in the 70's and finding an identity through music and second-hand fashion.
Listen as they take you on their journey through Once Upon A Time In The Muirton.
Happy Listening, Enjoy.
