I was born in Derby [The Big Apple]. I spent several years in and around London but decided to come back a few years ago... ...on arrival, the words of the old Tom Jones/Jerry Lee Lewis classic came to mind... "...The old home town looks the same/ Still pissin' down with rain..." Up the Rams!!
Excellent! The building at 3:16 I'm sure in the sixties it was the the bus drivers rest room. In the days when nearly all the buses terminated at the market place.
I studied in Derby 1996-1999, brilliant times at Derby Uni, I think of Britpop when I think of Derby but the main tune I think of is White Town - Your Woman, the guy was a Derby Uni student.
Just listened to it a few seconds ago, the video has scenes of Derby city centre in it (it'sdown at the mo but I still recall the vid)
I think this is great! Andy is clearly very proud of Derby. I've looked at many of his pictures on the Internet aswell as Youtube videos. I live in London but have relatives there (in Chad) and visit from time to time. I discovered it has the oldest park in England - said to be model for Central Park, New York. I visited it). I really enjoyed walking around Derby with my mapbook last time I was there. Derby is a cool place. Everyone should be as proud of where they are from, as Andy is of Derby.

Great view of Derby... I like it, especially if I moved recently in to Derby. It is much more sensitive as the day time.

Nightlife? Here was me expecting Baileys, Tiffanys or even 'Clouds' which was up from the Spot! I think I am thirty years out of date....
Seriously Andy, you are truly passionate about Derby and it shows in your work.
PLEASE keep up the excellent work!

Some great shots there. Just one criticism, no collection of Derby-at-night photos is really complete without a photo of McTurks...
