Saturday at close of business at my office with a Dutch bank in Marina House, Queen's Road Central. You see me in front of the vault.
See the old typewriters. Marina House has gone now! Most of our employees were Portugese. The staff was all Dutch.

oh okay, thought it could have been the gentleman in the beginning. Anyway was Ton your only child? yes i now know he was your foster son. I must say on another note i love the old movie clips, they have a great romance of time gone by.

No, Ton came into my life in 1981.

was he the one in the beginning?

I wish I had contact with one single person shown in this clip. However, I'm afraid that they are not with us any more.

That's one big vault there. So nice to see old videos from the 50's. Seeing offices before was really different from today's office.

@MichaelRogge Really? I knew inside was just bills and coins that banks keep. I saw a vault smaller than the older ones in the bank. I liked it. Looks like a big metal box on a wall with a wheel similar to older ships.

@HLD452 I joked. In fact we stored many watch consignments for dealers there for final payment, as well US dollar notes which under the existing regulations had to be deposited with banks in order to obtain an importlicense.
