Translation

Me and my brother, my younger brother we used to go down to the Leeds Market. We’d put on our best clothes on and go down to the market and we’d there until about stay there till about 10 o’clock at night.

In them days the workers to sell their stuff they’d put on a show on telly. They used to be very interesting and I used to like watching them and listening to them. I remember a time one of them picked my brother up and lifted him over a barrel and said “can you pick me up some grapes”.
