This is incredible! I'm from London but Westport is where my family originate from, we still have the family home just off Rosbeg and this is our local town, so much has changed...then again, I saw a video of my local London high street in 1984 and that has changed so much, buildings have been demolished and shops have changed, not compared to like this! I may live in London and have all my friends and life but Westport is where my heart lays...
I'm 18.

Third world country back then.

What is this shot on? It appears the only thing that changed was cars looked better then...

My father's from Westport, and I was born in this year. The place honestly hasn't changed much from the looks of it, and I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing!

Music is a bit dramatic?
