Andy's Driving videos around Derbyshire, UK :
Are you an ex-pat of Derbyshire, feeling homesick? Or perhaps you just want a clear way of giving someone directions to a location in Derbyshire or just want to show people your village. Well in this video and the many others I have made, you will be able to take a virtual drive around the streets as though you were in the driving seat. I use a dash-mounted camera, Traffic lights and heavy traffic have been edited out.

  • Thank you so much! I lived in Melbourne 2003 - 2007 on Thomas Cook Close, in one of the old houses on the corner.

    This brought back amazing memories, I'm not ashamed - I shed tears at the memories of this place brought back by your video and music. I'm now in San Francisco, but loving every second - it's just so very, very different. I miss the pubs, the bakery, the newsagents, the spar, the library, the doctors right nearby. Oh wait, that's pretty much everything!!!

  • @emmacramshaw Glad you enjoyed my video. Have you watched my newer one around Melbourne called "Melbourne, Derbyshire by car in HD on 9th Aug 2009. Derbyshire villages by car series" Have a look.

    Andy

  • Nice to see this because I live in Beijing now. You drove by my parents' home on Spinney Hill.

  • Cheers, I have a large collection of local Derby and Derbyshire videos if you want to relive those memories. Sub me!
