Hi Gary. Thanks for sharing this family film. I love the 'Carry on Camping' score, lol! We really enjoyed this. Take care. Johnny.

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Johnny, i have been watching carry on films recently, i also saw a youtube video where someone else also used carry on music to cine film. it suits well. thanks Johnny take good care

[@johnnytasker1531]

@@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD Hi Gary, yes I can see how 'Carry on' scores would go well with the whole cine type of thing, perhaps from a similar era, like me! I love Carry on and watch and watch, laughing even thought I know the nest punchline! Thanks Gary, take care.

[@ivyjulieharvey3043]

Love these old films. amazing memories to have and well done on restoration

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello, its good to hear from you, hope your keeping well, sorry late getting back. I used some of the filter colour enhancing tweaks and sharpened the picture on it to improve it as well as some sound, but this real is by far the best Quality compared to some of the others, I've just uploaded another one but sadly youtube has blocked the comments due to child protection rules as we are running around in our swimming trunks ! ha ha even though we are now grown men ! thanks so much and take good care

[@DashDrones]

Amazing footage. Man I'd love to go and live in the 70s and 80s again...

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello, the 70s and early 80s were a great time, no silly rules like now days, i remember my dad sending me down the off licence with a note asking them to serve me with half ounce of golden virginia and a packet of greens ! i must have been only about 10 years old ! i want to go back as well, times were simple. I also remember winning 3 bottles of Pomagne at a fete in the park next door to our house, it was hook the bottles to win and i mastered it ! i took them home, my Nan and dad were very pleased, they even let me drink some ! i was under 10 years old then ! the modern world is becoming a nightmare ! ha ha thanks and take good care.

[@DashDrones]

@@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD yes mate, good times! Now all we need is a time machine 😎

[@lindsaybenison813]

Oh my goodness, we had those very same picnic boxes, my Mum used to fill them up, they had room for a salad and for some pudding and a space for a drink, no idea where they went but they came out every holiday and day trip we had when we were kids.. Thanks for the film, brilliant..

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Lindsay, hope your keeping well. Funny enough i still have the very same picnic boxes. They all stack neatly on top of each other with an elastic cord to hold them together. a great things to have, they are made of plastic but blinking strong very thick plastic. thanks Lindsay, keep safe and well, take care

[@NoName-zh9ov]

the fact that that was a year after my mum was born shocks me! must be great being able to watch all these and relive the memories! my favourite part was the seal at first i was confused what that black blob was but then it emerged! a black blob with a head! thank you for sharing! looks like an amazing park! stay safe!

[@kaylag5158]

i've just moved from woburn! the safari park is not like that anymore, its still good though. but very expensive!

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Kayla, thanks so much for this comment. I just googled modern Woburn and Woburn in the 70s, wow its completely changed like you said ! i was also a little worried i had identified the film wrong as its changed so much, but i did find a comment on Facebook saying " Does anyone remember the cable cars and taking them to feed the seals at the lake. The cable cars no longer exists ! thanks and take good care

[@vetworker]

Wow what great memories. You really look like your father as well. Your mum was a stunning looking woman. Thanks for sharing this.

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Thanks Dan, my mum was half Italian. she is no longer with us so the film is like a wonderful time machine for me. Hope your keeping well, Dan, thanks mate take good care.

[@bartemaeusp2798]

Brilliant look back in time. Easy to see who your dad is, thanks for sharing mate.

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Thanks for popping by, keep safe and well.

[@dilly239]

What a lovely thing to share with us, your blast from the past. You can tell which one is you right from the beginning, you haven't changed at all (well maybe got a bit taller!) Good looking parents by the way. Sad you lost your mum so early, but great that you have this and others like it to go back to see her smiling face. Thank you for sharing x

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Dilly, its really like an amazing time machine for me, to see my mum and nan in moving pictures rather that photos ! im so happy to have this, , im now interested in lip reading to see what words were spoken ! ha ha, if only it had sound ! thanks Dilly, take good care

[@get2rog]

That was bloody brilliant! Love the 'Carry On' score. Fits perfectly with the 70's home vid. That cheeky little sexyfied musical score that came on when you introduced yourself at the end ...🤣 Gotta say though I don't miss that fashion at all but compared to today I miss those times. Remember begging mum for a fiver to buy a pair of Oxford Bags for school. After all my nagging I got them and the bloody things fell apart within a day. Needless to say I never got another say in what clothes I would be wearing. Now I think I'm gonna have a 'Carry On Sunday' and play the movies in the background while I get on with stuff. Nothing like a good ol carry on to lighten the mood. Thanks for the cheeky upload. That's made my day. 🐪🐫🐘🦏🐎🐒🍗🥩🍖

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Mike hope your keeping well and enjoying your peace and quiet. I have been watching the carry on movies of an evening, ive now seen about 6 now and plenty more to go ! my favourite so far was carry on screaming. I remember watching them with my nan and dad when i was younger. My mum in that video passed away with cancer when i was nearly 6. My nan then come to live with us to help raise us. My dad then remarried after about 5 years to another great second mum ! despite what happened i have super fond memories of the past, the good old days for sure ! thanks Mike, keep well, thanks and take good care

[@jennifermillardX]

Good grief you do look like your Dad X What great memories of a family day out X

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello Jennifer, its lovely to hear from you, hope your keeping well, and i hope they get a move on with them blinking road works !!! i was round that way about 3 weeks ago visiting my dad who is now 84. Its like a wonderful time machine as my nan and mum are no longer on this side. im so happy to see them again ! thanks and take good care

[@BeFree-BeFrugal]

Oh the memories, my dad had a cine camera.. I remember warm tomato sandwiches that had been in the boot of the car in an old biscuit tin … no plastic in them days

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello, happy memories of the past, thanks for your story of the past, i do enjoy reading these type of comments, certainly the good old days ! I'm also beginning to hate plastic ! Im looking to buy an old style mop and metal bucket as the plastic one broke ! thanks Jill take good care

[@just-another-guy]

This is awesome. Thank you so much for sharing your memories with us. I won't tell you what that car would be worth now lol. Stay safe guys. Best channel on here.

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello, thanks so much for your kind words. ha ha yes i expect the Datsun cherry would be worth a good few thousand now ! My dad loved Datsun cars and would trade his car in for a brand new one every 2 years. thanks and take good care.

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

That was brilliant mate, I was one or two months from being born, September that year a little Rhodesian Moose was born in Salisbury under a starry African night, alas no three wise men showed. This was the Britain we were told about as kids, green, beautiful gardens, clean and safe. WTF happened lol. Your pop reminded me of my old man and Grandfather, Brylcreem tops and clean shaven, nice tidy gent's shirt and trousers. Magic, Mother and Grandmother all done up and looking cracking. Magic mate. Then you three herbert's looking for mischief no doubt lol.

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

Hello moose, blah ha ha, great comment !. From all your wonderful stories of your life wow you have really lived to the full ! it how life is meant to be ! Yep Britain has gone down hill, hence me hiding away from it all in a forest, ha ha. The close knit community caring people are mainly pensioners now ! i always talk to that generation, real nice conversations to be had. The younger generation mainly consists of lazy, im too precious to get my hands dirty, im alright jack fuck the rest, staring at a fucking phone screen like a bloody zombie ! but our generation give that to them ! blah ha ha what a complete mess that has been created ! Also i must admit that the good people who comment on this channel restores my faith in humanity a great deal ! there is still plenty of kind caring people about. Thanks Moose, take good care, many many comments at this moment in time , the reason for being late to reply, but ive only got 3 more to answer and im up to date.

[@markpage9397]

Greetings again from Alaska. I am always interested in vids about life in the UK. I have been since I was a teenager. I was in High School at the time of this home movie. A lot has changed since then. There is another channel I have followed for years called Lost In The Pond done by a UK expatriate now living in America who does memos about the differences between his native UK and America. He covers topics such as language, customs, holidays, school, food and many other items of interest. If you have not already found him I suggest you give him a look .

[@ESCAPINGTHEMATRIXFORGOOD]

hello Stuart, yep I'm old and f ing grey but i do remember you. ha ha . We are trying to escape the shit system here by living off the land and I've give up my job/rat race nearly 11 years ago to do this. These cine films are what i found in the depths of a cupboard and not normally the content i upload. Im a kind of F the system person now and live life on my terms and not the governments idea of living. We eat mainly from the garden and rear poultry for food. Our normal uploads are about living of the land and being self sufficient with lots of piss balling about for fun. cheers and take good care
