RIVER GREAT OUSE 1989 - ELY to ST IVES | Throwback Thursday September 2020 | Ep285

[@OurDaysOut]

Good to see the Cutter Inn back in 1989, always go there whenever we are in Ely for Fish and Chips. We where in St Ives recently, and it hasn't changed much. Thanks for sharing, Paul and Suzanne.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thanks Paul & Suzanne, two places we love to visit too. It’s very different but just as lovely when you approach from the river though 🙂 Trev

What a great but of old film from 1989 to bring back to life in 2020. Feels like I am watching an old feature film about taking a boat trip down the river and through the locks. Really enjoyed this, Trev and Sue.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Thank you Sue. It seems like just the other day to us. I so wish my mum and dad were here to see the footage restored and edited 😀 Trev

[@CompetaJohn]

Looked like great fun, Sue & Trev. Many thanks for sharing & reminding us of all those 80s fashions! 🤣👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Sid used to love going on the river with Trev’s brother. Fond memories. Thanks for your kind support John, we appreciate it 😊 Trev n Sue

[@ExtremeMotorhomingAdventures]

The good old 80s I was sooo young then ! Loving the fashion 😉👏🤣 Great throwback video! Michelle and Andy x 😃😃

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Not the most interesting video but memories galore 😉 thanks for watching 🚐 Trev

[@andrew-karens-adventures]

Lovely day messing about on the water, some great family memories thanks for sharing 👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

I particularly like my mum and step dad in this one. They have been gone a long time now. Fond memories 😊 Trev

[@G.J..Journeys]

Nice seeing the boats. Was on the Norfolk Broads in my younger days and loved it. 👍 Graeme

[@PoshcatsCamping]

My first boating holiday was from Wroxham on the Norfolk Broads when I was about 12 years old. It was a very new experience and exciting time 😃 Trev

[@HoneyandMe]

So fun!! I really enjoy looking back at older videos and reliving those fun times from my life, so imagine this was a great memory trip for you! One of the things high on my bucket list is to make the trip over the pond and go on a canal boat! The locks looked like an adventure in themselves!! Now you've got me itching to get over there! Thanks for sharing!-Sue

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Hi Sue, when you come over to the canals, make sure you get a good guide book about the history as it’s fascinating to see how time has changed from canals to railway then roads. Some of the old industrial buildings still exist too. It will be an awesome trip for you 😃👍🏻 Trev

[@HoneyandMe]

@@PoshcatsCamping Great advice! can't wait!!

[@Tom-852]

Great video! I really enjoy seeing the old footage.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Ah thanks Thomas. We have got a few more lined up for future. 👍🏻 Trev

[@CraftyCampervanners]

You had us shouting at the screen, we were sure Sid and the boat were about to plough into the wall... then a pan to the left and we were breathing again. Pete & Kaz 👍👍👍

[@PoshcatsCamping]

LOL knowing how Sid handled the boat, anything could happen bless him 🤣🤣 cheers guys 👍 Trev

[@HappyTrailsHiking]

Trev and Sue, I am catching up on TT as we were out of town last week. What a fun family outing on the river! So neat that you got to revive this footage!

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Happy Trails Hiking thanks for watching, hope you had a fun trip too. We are so lucky to have this footage 😉😃 Trev

[@HappyPlaceCamping]

Haha I just told Desmond's Donders I love these throwback videos. But that there is no way the 80's could be much of a throw back since I lived through them and that surely could not have been too long ago!!!

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Haha seems like just the other day. I was born at the beginning of the swinging sixties 🤪 Trev

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Thanks for that, see you were at Houghton Lock where we were last week.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Yes, my navigation on water is poor. I have to use a map at every bend in the river 🤣 Trev

[@kevandrews6418]

Nice one trev the good old days kev

[@PoshcatsCamping]

Yes things seemed more simple in those days. Hard work sometimes though 😃 Trev

[@DesmondsDonders]

Thanks Trev. I know a song about going to St.. Ives LOL

[@PoshcatsCamping]

I bet it has cheeky lyrics 🤣 Trev

[@HitchUpAndTow]

Great video, did you film Sue's t-shirt in technicolor? 😂😂😜👍. Loved it. Mark & coral

[@PoshcatsCamping]

There’s a long story about the shirt. Did you see the continuity issue in the film? She was not wearing it at the start 🤣 cheers Mark & Coral

[@HitchUpAndTow]

@@PoshcatsCamping that's bad Trev, you had 30 years to get it right LOL

[@CarinSomers]

al these old holiday videos of the 80s and 90s are so recognizable, did you guys had a large bulky videocamera ???

[@PoshcatsCamping]

It was a Panasonic VHSC camera so it was quite big 😃 Trev

[@TheBeckwiths]

you cant beat being on a boat, messing about on the river.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

So true. I think the children were a bit young to remember it but the grown ups had fun 😉 Trev

[@deenunya7735]

More like 31 Yrs Trev Bet you was Knackered keep Jumping Ship n Running Foward to get the Long Shots in.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

I need to check my maths 🤣🤣 yes the long shots were tough, almost got wet feet 😃 Trev
