DescriptionTracks 1 - 7: Actuality with a man from Galway, Republic of Ireland, 'Martin Kilderry' and Charles Parker. On track 5 the sound quality degenerates. Martin recounts his reasons for leaving Ireland to find work in England. He talks about his experiences coming to London and making frends. He describes the living conditions and the social life for the Irish men that come across to London to work. He talks about 'pioneers' - Irish men that do not drink alcohol - and why people would begin to drink alcohol once they moved to England. Martin speaks about his reasons for preferring living in England to living in Ireland, and the discussion moves on to prejudices between English and Irish people.
