Episode 6 – A Ticket into Existence
Receipts. Not things that tend to elicit much of an emotional response, unless you are afraid of taxes that is. But this week guest Demi Bailey-Paul has a pretty special receipt for Catherine and Lynda to marvel over. She’s brought them a receipt for her grandad’s passage from Jamaica to the UK in 1961 and is as amazed as Catherine and Lynda that her grandad has kept it safe for so long. With her grandparents meeting in the UK this receipt marks not only her grandad’s journey to the UK but Demi’s ticket into existence so it’s a pretty powerful piece of paper! This episode was a Message Heard production brought to you in partnership with Catherine Ross and Lynda Burrell of The National Caribbean Heritage Museum: Museumand.
