Is this around 1977 to 1979 ?? Oh dear, oh dear. the passengers look a bit different now unfortuneatly. I had garages in SE London and saw the RAPID change from 1980 on, bad, really bad. Thats why I live on the Isle of Wight, part of the white exodus,
I used to red bus rover it in the 70's and also London country rovers but now I would most likely get beaten up by yobby gangs of shit so it would be to dangerous. even when I use the tube now I am looking.
I moved to co Durham now and it is like the 70's up there I mean no schvarzers
Yes scruttart, times have changed , I used to walk in some very dark isolated places at night in London working with British Rail and felt totally safe .
Lovely little movie of Seventies London it looked so civilised & safe I noticed the Clippie walking home alone at half past twelve at night you could not possibly do that now for fear of getting attacked or even murdered.

Yes, it's a shame that they dont make similar films these days, would be good to look back on in years to come.
