WOW WHAT A DIFERANCE I LEFT READING WHEN I WAS 17 I AM NOW 83 THE CHANGE IS AMAZING IT LOOKS REALY GREAT

[@braddonboy5638]

What a wonderful video. I used to live in Reading from 1977 to 1979 but it was sooo expensive and I took a job in Canberra (Australia) where I still live. I hardly recognise the place in this film - lots of big new buildings and very lively at night. The Thames and Caversham area still look very pretty.

[@dimbus2000]

Born and bred here for 31 years, this has been a nice reminiscence, thanks x

[@pj1909]

i lived there 95 to 2002 this reminds me of walking home from train station after work up oxford road to west reading on summer nights knowing there was a beer waiting in the restoration or pond house

[@brt3761]

Thank you so much.... I will be landing soon in UK and my work location is in forbury road. I am completely new to UK and this video has given me the glimpse of how my office premises look like... Thank you so much for showing my office building by the way 😀😀😀

Thank you for this. Living in CANADA since 1982. Reading has changed but still has its charm

[@kimshayler4501]

Awwww, thank you so much for the walk. I was born in Reading but left many years ago and now live in Cyprus. It was SO nice to 'visit' home although so much has changed and is unrecognisable!! But, it was good to walk the familiar roads and remember..,.... Would love to see more, but it's such a big place to cover!! Thank you again 🤗

[@walkthroughtime8373]

It's a very nice town. A lot of the 'commuter' towns are changing fast! I bet you don't miss the cold winters! 🥶

[@daljeetsingh6198]

Great effort. Hats off to your patience while making this video. I lived in Reading from 10 August 2011 till 28 May 2015. I really missed Reading. Hope to visit this lovely place some day in near future. With love from INDIA

Would you mind to tell me that are there any power plant in Reading now?

[@walkthroughtime8373]

I don't think there is. I know there was one that was closed down in the late 1960s

[@NguyenCuong-fo5rc]

Would have really helped if the texts were been read out. Some are difficult to read.
