  • Résumé

  • We're ending a year in The Archive Room with another chance to hear a great collection of funny and fascinating stories of Island life in years gone by - told by the people who were there.

    Ellen (Cissy) O’Brien and Inkerman Faragher remember life in the Douglas Children's Home, Laura Briggs recalls a frightening incident during World War II, Charlie Webster and Geoff Cannell recall the first days of TT broadcasting in the mid 1960's and Leslie Garrett recalls his childhood living on the Calf of Man.

    The heyday of tourism is remembered here too - with stories of the success of Cunningham's Camp, and reversing the fortunes of the failing the Falcon Cliff Hotel.

    And in the world of education, Mrs Annie McArd shares her memories of teaching table manners to the youngsters in Marown School between the wars - and Laurie Davies recalls a most unusual Christmas carol choir practice!
