Fantastic!. Brings back great childhood memories. The city centre was special back then. If only you had turned left at the top of the escalator in Broadmarsh we would of seen Skills ToyShop.

You can climb over the gates if your nimble enough, I did it 1 night after they started charging. But didn’t go in the main buildings, I didn’t fancy a free night in the cells

All the worst amateur cameraman's faults. But helps illustrate how successive Labour councils mucked up Nottingham town centre big time. And this was shot just about when the UK's coal miners were committing suicide, and the town's money was drying up.

@marklongdon2435 3 ай бұрын

@@user-re2fl3sh2d And which government were buying the cheaper products? That's why the miners were striking. I never said the labour councils weren't at falut. But then as now that's only part of the picture. The reason that labour councils are failing now is because the tory government is reducing the funding from central government. I am not here to point the finger in one direction because I am not blinkered into one party. I look at all causes of an issue.
