Colum Arbuckle's guests are Florence Chambers and Pearl Hutchinson
Pearl grew up in Donegal and is from a family of 13. Her father had a ‘counter shop’ in the town. Pearl later worked as a computer programmer at the University of Ulster. Florence grew up on a small holding in County Down. Her mother was one of ten children and her father was a school teacher. Many of her mother’s family emigrated to America and Florence has many connections there. Plus, Colum hears about the magic of Banagher sand from historian Ken McCormack, and we travel back to January 1979 and the beginning of David Attenborough’s iconic ‘Life On Earth’ television series.
