Northampton 1993 (a)

[@justinjennings9840]

Thank you. Used to live there until I was 12 in 1989. I haven't been back there since. My mother and I used to walk from 19 East Paddock Court in Lings to Western Favell to do our weekly shop. Fond memories. It's surreal seeing this footage. Childhood nostalgia is strong here.

I was 19 turning 20 in 1993. This was the year I left. We use to spend a lot of time waiting for buses at Weston Favell and hanging around in the Grosvenor Centre. I can't say I miss any of it, but this video takes me right back. The sounds, the prim old ladies, the teens with curtain haircuts!

[@jamesw4085]

Same! Nostalgia hit, but probably not as good as we remember it.

[@flaxvert]

Next to the weston favell shopping centre. Focus diy was in the video as was my old doctors. I was 19 at the time and living in Standens Barn.. oh the memories..

[@jamesbrowne7601]

Doctors still there

[@ThatBusEnthusiastOlli]

Great Video, The rIde inside the Volvo Citybus brought back some memories

@@gabrielwalker421 I don’t agree with this comment however multiculturalism hasn’t worked. You can’t just bring the poor uneducated without significant support to re-educate and push society up. We should be holding each other to high standards. It’s pathetic. We shouldn’t be rolling over like this

[@terrytibbs6029]

I was 13 and I can still smell the back of that bus wow ...back when England was great

[@justinjennings9840]

I was 12 when my parents moved aboard. That was 1989. I recall sitting at the front on the first deck and remember all the squeaking lol. Lots of plastic parts squeaking every time the bus went over a bump in the road.

[@timbrown1897]

is not Northampton as they speak English

[@blueballanimations]

which northampton do you live in then?

[@ColinFlowers]

Maybe you're not from Northampton but the correct word is "its".

[@robloxfan4271]

This looks way earlier than 93

[@justinjennings9840]

I was thinking the same thing. Looks like late 1980s

[@gavinmellon9313]

Definitely 93. Those Volvo buses are all K reg.

[@TheManWithNoName.]

That Bus headed for Duston, id love to see a video of duston back then, i was 12 and still at Ryelands Middle School, a year later i was heading upto Duston Upper School, i have a desperate urge to see videos and photos of northamptons past, as its all turned to shit gradually over the last 30 years .... i miss the past so much

[@justinjennings9840]

There isn't much online. I lived in Lings.I was 12 when I left Northampton in 1989. I now live in New Zealand. Haven't been back since. This is surreal. So much nostalgia. Loved this video...took me back to Western Favell - lots of memories. I must make a point of returning.

[@TheManWithNoName.]

@justinjennings9840 it must be strange for you yes after all this time and however many thousands of miles distance you are from here now .... I have been searching for as many photos and vids of old northampton as I can find ... ive found a few things and I'm gonna try and make a few nostalgic videos out of what if what ive found .... you should come back and visit .. but it has changed alot over the years and not for the better

[@justinjennings9840]

I'll follow you if you can post a link or reference. Do you live in Northampton still? I often considered commissioning someone to take footage of where I grew up - a walk round if there were such an opportunity. I just can't see myself ever returning. Google street view is not the same. My mother lives in Ireland so perhaps an opportunity when I visit next. @@TheManWithNoName.
