| F961 |
Yeah, well in dat days, it wisna too difficult. |

//It most have been.// |
| F961 |
wi a borrow; dey were, you couldna get ony
//machinery in idder as// |
| F960 |
//Of course.// |
| F961 |

| F960 |
//Yes, uh-huh.// |
| F961 |
Hit wis a lot mair wark dan biggin a hoose

//No, well withoot er machinery.// |
| F961 |
yeah, ended up bein a piece higher dan
//hit really wis meant to be.// |
