Helen and Amy discuss Duncan and Scottish Traveller lifestyle; the importance of living in balance with the land and, of course, there are stories!

Helen remembers how she first met Duncan, his self-reliance and how he balanced acknowledging the scorn and prejudice he had encountered with an open-hearted generosity and joy in meeting new people.

A warm, intimate conversation as two friends make the most of a chance to reflect on a unique man; the startling relevance of his stories today and the incredible tradition he carried.
