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.
This is a journey through the Derbyshire village of Milford and the Town of Belper.

That's amazing - in NZ and missing my home town so much, you go right by my first flat at the top of High St :)If you could just Manor Rd & Bargate Rd on the next one that would be great! :)

Yes the HQ option makes these look great. Best of all are my HD videos when viewed via HDMI connection on a big TV.
