Ricky's guest is Mary Contini, one of Scotland's best known cooks, plus he discusses the best ways of parenting when it comes to alcohol and children.

Ricky's first hour guest is Mary Contini one of Scotland's best known cooks and a director of Edinburgh's legendary Italian delicatessen Valvona and Crolla. She talks about her love of food, family life and her faith, and shares a few of her favourite pieces of music.

With Scotland's ongoing issues surrounding drink, Ricky discusses the best ways of parenting when it comes to alcohol and children. What should ordinary parents be aware of especially in their own attitudes and behaviour to social drinking and what would be the best parenting to make sure our children have a responsible and safe attitude to alcohol?
