Ahhhh! The days when everyone looked out for each other…..now we have to look out for “ others” ! now, we look out

I can well understand why, as a little girl, my mum never liked the boat trips over to Liverpool. No stabilisers.

Some tremendous footage here. With modern technology they could improve the Quality AND add Colour. 😆

A jewel set in the Irish Sea.

1.11 that's my great grand dad! Looks like my dad.

Awesome! Is Mrs Maddrell really this fast, or is this due to the film? I card, comb and spin, but will never achieve her tempo! Thanks a lot for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing these films. My father was from the Isle of Man. He would have known all of these places and would have been able to tell me all the stories about them. I wonder if one of those cottages was his mother's. I wish he was still here to tell me. He would have loved watching this. What a beautiful place.

thanks for sharing!

its amazing how much has changed and how much is still the same

Definitely, definitely the IOM TT. I recognise Ramsey and the Bungalow.

very good

I stood on this spot only 3 days ago.It is a beautifull place is the ship an old packet boat ?Also the fog horn looks very similar to the ones at point of ayre. I agree with jeri good video.

historic film posted on you tube makes up for all the childish garbage we have to wade through. this was great!

Pre POW camps!

Such a great video. Thanks for putting it up! :)

great film Dez Sanderson

the large tall green bridge is coos bay oregon and the water fall with the train trustle in the rear is celilo falls on the columbia wich is under water because of the dalles dam around the 50s the rail bridge is the sp&s railroad at that time now it is the BNSF

thank you for posting these wonderful old movies. social history by real people - I bet your grandfather would of loved you tube.

Awesome old video, this is so cool and I am spinning on an old ashford spinning wheel,

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing it. I also found it really informative, as I'm learning to card!

The Travelling marshal is Bertie Rowell, a former MGP rider, the machine is probably an Ariel Square 4

thank you! a very athmospheric video and one whch also gives the real technical details. From when is it and from where?

Thank You! For those of us who try to preserve "the old ways", it is wonderful to actually see techniques used - not just to learn from modern methods. Marty Mc

Thanks for letting us see this old piece of film! I found it fascinating. I noticed she is using what I have always thought of as a Shetland style wheel, where the brake band goes across a string between the two maidens. I do hope it is the old style film that is speeded up a bit - she doesn't really card THAT fast does she? THanks again - Amanda (ADHUK)

The second steam packet boat seems to be Ben-my-Chree or Lady of Mann. The final shot is either St Seriol or St Tudno of Merseyside & North Wales Steamships, probably returning to Llandudno on a day trip

that was so great. thank you very much for sharing this video.

Last second or so looked like the bungalow,interesting piece of film,shame it wasn't longer,Blondie luvly.

No - it's Ramsey

Raining then too! Nice blonde bird at start of clip!!

WOW, so THAT'S how they did carding! Books don't explain it very well. Thanks so much for posting this educational spinning and hand-carding video!!!

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

Wonderful. It is almost certainly right after the war. I could be in this film, sitting on my father's shoulders in the crowd on the opposite side of the road.
