Thanks for posting the clip.

It is always nice to see these images especially for those of us who were not fortunate enough to have lived through those times.

Thankyou for that,great memories of a great era.What struck me was the amount of traffic on the roads, my memory recalls there were far fewer cars about, still this from someone who now is unable to remember where he put his glasses,why he went into the cellar and if he posted that letter or not(The letter he hasn't written yet !) Happy Days !!!
