BRO BUT NGL THX BRO IM INCLUDED

Yo just know your behind my house thx for including me

Wow! I came by this by chance and what memories it gave me. I was the first Housing Officer , based on Camborne Walk. As a welcome my office window was smashed on the first day!! Replaced by polycarbonate and no further problems after that. I was newly qualified and full of enthusiasm to get flats let and repairs done. There was a small maintenance team on site and I remember and active tenants association that I worked with. It certainly was an eye opener to life and it maybe looking back with rose tinted eyeglasses but it was a happy time!! Great experience which lasted just over 6 months before I left to join North Shropshire District Council as Assistant Housing Manager and on the Senior local government ladder!! 🙂🙂

Home birth 72 Claypole road

My nan worked in the chips shop there she also worked in the pub there also I used to get a free drink and a bag of crisps there and a free meal at the chipshop also great memories and we used to go to claudes cafe and all my uncles and aunties including mum dad and nan and grandad used to go around all the pubs along that road I even used to run down noel Street to the goose fair when my dad was working the rides there they were the good old day and both white and black ppl mixed together loved it there

Me my mum dad and two sisters lived there until about a year before they were knocked down from there we moved to Highbury Vale

I lived there in the 70s before joining the WRAF. It was a hell hole, and I was so glad to leave. Should never have been built, humans should not have had to live in such bloody awful places.

Good to see a few familiar faces in this docu. Hyson Green was awesome. Pawn shops aplenty so you could grab a bargain, pirate radio stations ran from the flats, blues nights.. I remember sneaking out to the black and white cafe at night for Victors parties! Can't have been any older than 16! there was a strong feeling of community spirit. Now, nobody invests in it, and the city has lost it's identity because of gentrification.

Joshua, are you related to Ruth who used to live in the flats on saville walk?

Fantastic recording of the Notts accent.

Anyone know the reggae song 13:10? Quite catchy but haven't manger to find it

I was on Hadleigh walk😊

ahhh the blues....happy days :)

I remember the reggae early in the morning from the flats between alfreton road and Ilkeston road. I used to cut through the flats to my YTS at GKNautoparts off Ilson road. That would've been 1987/1988 ish. I didn't live in the inner city so it was a shock

i lived on the flats from 1974-1978 at 14 Blaby Walk!

these balcony flats were used as scape goat in the political world

its seems fantastic to be living there and I am at the other side of the country ,I wonder and I think we have lost a lot of this community spirit ,and looking out for each other, and labeling and judging one another ,and with a lot of pubs, clubs,closing smoking bans and general government control,don't eat or drink ,this and that,it just seems a very far cry from the 1960sand1970s yes poor, but happiness and a kind of contentment compared to now, even the television was better. you know you could go for a few pints put a few Bob in the juke box and hear the latest hits and have a laugh ,where do the people go now, or even the kids when they get courting.and I believe its been government control in to every business thats being ruined through tax,rates, health +safety, and political correctness gone mad in england and eventually that's ruined our country .nothing is made in england , in the north east of england it was bursting at the seems and thriving ,every kind of industry you can name was here .completely everything 100% now like all over england ,nothing is made here .our governments since 1970 s have ruined england all over the country, with taxes,rates health+safety and political correctness. and to much interference instead of help how much can we hinder you ,and ruin you and then close you .for our big boys, our friends, the supermarkets .you scratch my back and I will scratch yours
