AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Bandicoot was a superb raconteur and any written version of his storytelling loses the brilliant musical quality of his voice, gestures and emotional expression. He greatly appreciated the humour in these events. His story was recorded at Bulman and edited in 1989 and was read to him at Beswick in May 1991. Sadly, Bandicoot passed away in 1994'.
