In the left hand background at 0:32 is the zurich insurance building. Still there but for sale and may be converted to residential. This is in the days before pedestrianisation, the St Nicholas Centre and mindless immigration.
Seems odd now, seeing buses in Sutton High Street. Imagine going all the way to Reigate on that Leyland National on the 711-you'd need an osteopath by the time you got off.
BUT I REMEMBER AN EVEN MORE DISTANT TIME. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE DAYS WHEN GIRAFFES USED TO ROAM FREELY UP AND DOWN REGENTS STREET ? (I remember coming out of the bakers on the old Goodge Street only to see my Aunt Betty in her broken down old jallopy getting towed home by one .)
