Evelyn Strang – Reflection On Life

Evelyn compares the welcome she experienced from Scots people and the abuse she had lived through in Germany

Read the Transcript

INT: If you look back now on your time in Scotland what would you say are the high points of your time here?

E.S: Just that all the Scottish people were so wonderful. I couldn’t believe it. After having lived in Germany and being, you know, abused by the Germans, I couldn’t believe the people here were so nice.

INT: And do you think they were particularly nice because they knew what you had gone through?

E.S: I don’t really know. I just thought they were wonderful.

INT: What’s the names of your children?

E.S: My children; Samantha and Charles and Lorraine.
