(LR)
Aye. Oh aye, she was like a very [unclear 00:20:09] thing, she used to stride
about.
WRM
Yeah. Did she come down by herself?
LR
Oh, aye. I remember this time we were broadcasting in Leeds and it was in
February and there was a bit of snow on, you know, and this Harry Hopeful
said, ‘Will Michael be listening in?’ That was her husband. ‘He will if he
thinks on,’ she said, ‘he will if he thinks on.’ [Laughs]
WRM
And you sang in the same programme, did you?
LR
Oh aye, yeah.
WRM
How did you get to Leeds?
LR
We had taxis, like, for two guineas each; with four on us, mebbe that’s eight
pounds. We once came for a half hour’s programme, The Keld Singers, in
Leeds: five of us there was. That’d be ten pounds, plus we had t’carriage
there. I wish we could mek a half hour programme now wi’ some o’ the…
what would we mek, five thousand ?
WRM
I know it’s amazing, isn’t it?
LR
[Laughs]
WRM
So this village would be blotted out on a funeral day, would it?
