Do you play anything else except the skiffle?
*Yes, ( I can’t understand what he said)

What are you going to do when you leave school, do they have skiffle?
*No. To do, uh, well, biological research.

Do you? I knew that already as a matter of fact. What do you mean by biological research?
*Well, cancer if it isn’t discovered by then.

You mean be a doctor?
*No, no, I don’t have enough brains for that I don’t think.

Not enough brains? Sure you have. Well, alright; understood as they say.
Not at all, I think you’ve got quite enough brains to be a doctor. What do you want to do? Research into germs?
*Yes

Interview (Drummer)
Now then, you want to biological research as well, but not into germs?
*No.

What do you want to do biological research?
*No, Things a bit bigger than that. Anything but germs and that

Why? To do what?
*Well, just to discover new things.

And to make what?
*Well, not to make new things but to discover things and give out that information

Well, alright we have two biologist’s, both who want to do research. Now we move over

Interview: (Bass player)
You don’t want to go into biological research do you I know because you want to you’re ????
*Yes, I hope they let me in.

That’s right, tell me a little more about this skiffle group. It meets how often?
*Well, we usually have a rehearsal about once a week.

Where?
*At Jim Page’s house. It’s central for all of us and I suppose his mother has to like skiffle

That’s right; she’s long suffering. You made, you made, you made this instrument I understand. Like Anthony, (???) he makes his own instruments too. Did it take long to make?
*About five months on and off

Did it come out alright? I mean when you finished making it, did it not play in tune?
*Well, No, it came out as I’d hoped.

It did? *(yes)

Are you going to make another one?
