Evocative memories from Olivia of Leith in the 1940s and 50s. We hear about the return of her father, after being away at war for five years. Tales of cadging jam pieces from neighbours, taking a gang of young boys to the saturday morning matinee at the Capitol picture house, stealing apples, getting the messages at the wee shops, the butchers and the cooperative. Dancing a conga round Rabbie Burn's statue at hogmanay. Spying on horses in a nearby stable and being an apprentice at a hairdressers. Step back in time to a Leith long gone.
