So many wonderful memories ❤

HAHA “MAIDENHEAD!” that’s a word for a Hyman!

interesting thanks . 😁😁😁

Great video, but it looks like winter.

I used to live here. God I’m pleased I left. What a dump.

Used to live down Iver Lane, which the GU cuts across by The Shovel, just below Cowley, and we'd travel over to Hayes to the swimming pool. Left in 71/2, not been back since. Is the pool still there ¿?

10:57 that building on the other side of the road, used to be the HQ of ladbrokes. I worked there in corporate, just after graduation, from 2007-2010.

I’m a teenager who has lived here since 2007 and I can describe this place in one word, it’s a shithole I have been robbed by knifepoint in the highstreet opposite McDonald’s and there are always people robbing the Tesco late at night, I think this is why Asda shuts at 10:30 now

used to go as a child now take my children here. Beautiful

Grew up in 44 Myrtle road ( the street with Queen Elizabeth painting) from ‘63, best childhood in a lovely working class town, up to mischief every day with the Brookers, Pearces, Sims, Gethings, Horners, Pigeons, Gunners, Kays et al kids. Such happy memories, my old town changed too much for my liking.

an islamic centre just popped up in Ruislip Manor.

I stayed in college avenue in Chalvey in Slough 35 years ago I remember all you can smell is curry cooking It was a shitehole then

I live in Slough. Its not as segregated as people say. I think its great that Black blokes are systematically going round screwing many (not all) Chav White girls on poor run down council estates in Britwell, Cippenham Manor Park, Wexham and Langley. It makes me extremely happy that the Whites and Blacks indulge in a lifestyle that makes them happy. At least they are intergrated which is what they always wanted. The Asians as usual own all the shops in Slough. They are the most hard-working people I've ever seen but they do not speak English very well. The Romanians form their own little communities and don't really interact with anyone as most of them do not speak English very well either. The Polish people are very racist towards Blacks and they also form their own little communities. The main problem is that all the various groups do not interact with each other. It's mainly only Blacks and Whites who actually interact with each other with most of the interaction being sexual in nature. Integration can only work when everyone speaks the same language. If no one bothers to learn to speak English integration will never work. The Polish people are very hard-working but they are very racist towards Blacks so intergration is not possible. They are also White but they are not Anglo-Saxon so their behaviour is very different from the indigenous British. The only two groups of people in the entire country of Great Britain that are truly integrated are indigenous British people and Black Caribbean people. The interaction between these two groups is mainly sexual in nature. We see this behaviour on poor run down council estates throughout Britain. Whatever makes them happy is cool with me.

I grew up in Twickenham Lovely place, lot's of happy memories if you haven't been there it's well worth a visit.

You’re right, the bar was called Cheers

Foresters pub was nice...

The real estate scum have taken over...

thanks i was born in hayes but not been back for years now live on the south coast overlookimg the sea

That was probably filmed early on a Sunday morning. That’s why it doesn’t look busy.

23:14, Quarter hour chime of Big Ben.

Thoroughly recommend that breakfast at The Greyhound.

I went to a prep school very near there in the late 50s early 60s, when it was still civilised!

Brings back a lot of beautiful memories. The Bunker that I had only heard of, was a treat. Thank you indeed. I hope you can work on your driving skills soon !

Heartbreaking I lived at RAF Uxbridge first in the early 60’s again in the early 70’s totally unrecognisable as home to the Queen’s Colour Squadron And RAF Central Band 💔

I went there once. didn't stay as I couln't find anyone who spoke english.

i lived in Ealing in it`s hay day. We had Bentals, m & s, bhs, Bejams which became iceland, and a variety of little shops, also you weren`t qallowed to jay walk and would be fined for littering. on a Saturday you couldn`t walk on the pavement because Ealing was the place to shop. You couldn`t pay me to live there now. from a sad ex Ealing resident.

Thank you for stirring up beautiful memories 👍👍

I used to go to school in Hounslow in the sixties it was a nice place then, glad i don't live near there anymore looks like a real shite hole shame.

I shall be very happy to see Slough changing. If you visited this little town between 1980 and 2020, you will notice not much had changed and the life looked as sleepy and drudgery as before. Good Luck Slough. Thanks.

Thank you indeed for stirring up some great memories ~

Lucky u didnt get robbed and stabbed

Worked there for 5 years Sheez It’s grim

You could have turned off at Junction 2, then taken Lionel Road North to get to Pope's lane.

The Treaty Centre is built on top of land that included the old Treaty Road, which no longer exists. I remember the beautiful old Treaty Road public library, which was in late Victorian / Edwardian Neogothic style. I think the old town hall was there as well, of similar style. All gone now, and replaced by the soulless monstrosity of the Treaty Centre, which occupies what were several blocks of old buildings.

Lived at raf Uxbridge in early 90s till 2005, can’t believe how much has changed ,makes me sad changed forever not for better

Good video. Unfortunately, my experience in dymchurch did not go as well as expected. There were lots of travellers in which some said racist slurs to my mum and grandparents (and made monkey noises), drug dealers and overall the residents were not so welcoming. They were also unfriendly and scummy. Also there was a p0rn sign in the rides area. I didn’t feel safe there. Sad to say it’s on my ‘scummy seaside towns’ list.

In regard to your question around 6 minutes, as to whether you could once drive through there, the answer is no, at least, not in the 1960s you couldn't. It was built with the mall on one side and a big open area that I remember. Fromn the way you were walking down the mall to start with, the market I mentioned would have been over to the left. You went down to the end of the mall, turned left and walked a way down there to the market. It seemed a long way but I was only a little kid, so it may not have been that far.

I didn't recognise much except the bridge right near the station, until it got to 4:02. I recognise those cement flag stones. They were used in the shopping area of Bracknell. One of the first indoor "malls" was built there. The same coloured pavers can be seen in the shopping centre in Easthampstead. I suppose being a kid, I spent quite a bit of time looking at them and not the shops when we went to Bracknell. There used to be a big open air carpark, which became a market on Saturdays. Occasionally we walked into Bracknell from Easthampstead as we lived close to the Bagshot Road. There used to be an old shop, a general store, along there called The Orchard Stores. It must have also been a delicatessen because I can remember the rich delli smell of the place. I loved it because sometimes Mum would buy us some smarties or a kit kat. Unfortunately, Mum passed away around the time this video was made. I'd have liked to have shown it to her. We left the UK in 1974, and Mum never went back.
