what a marvellous story of one of the lovliest places on Scotland. Well documented and listening to it you can almost feel you were there taking part. A truly great account of one of the most important industries in the country. Thank you for that!!
'At wis affa bonny min. Poetry. I lumped fish at the fish market in the late 70's and the variety of species was amazing. In the mid-70's as a newly-fledged teen I picked herring up off the pier (with permission) when the hopper became overfilled during unloading. You could fill a shopping bag in 5 minutes and be on your way. Then there was the batten(?) boats unloading hundreds of cut planks on to the quay where they sat for weeks. The 'Klondikers' sitting out in the bay. I waded through the mud looking for lobsters in car tyres when they deepened the Faithlie basin. Back then, when the weather was bad for an extended period, the harbour was full of boats. Sometimes 4 or 5 deep out from the quayside. My grandma had a hoose in Braidsea. 51 Main St. You stepped down into it at the front door and the livingroom window was at knee height on the street side. During the Summer, the braes were full of families having a wee picnic while the kids swam or rock-pooled. Thanks very much once again for the memories. ☺
very interesting film. please add subtitles. you can see a lot of work put into it. wonderful archival photos. I am glad that I live in Broch. it is a really nice town - unfortunately a bit neglected buildings in the center. but it has its charm.
