Bill Black - Baria family business

Transcript

But I can remember going into a laundry in Baria, and it was this bloody bombed-out joint that I mentioned earlier. Why we were there I couldn't even tell you, but I was talking to a young girl my age. She spoke perfect English.

And I asked her, and she was educated in Sydney, and I remember saying to her, "Why are you back here?" and she said, "I grew up with this. It was going on when I was born and my parents run the laundry."

And that's always intrigued me. The family business. But she spoke better English than what I spoke.
