I lived in Lanchester from 1964 - 1974. Here I comment on life then and what it looked like during a visit in December 2010.

My channel on you tube : http://www.youtube.com/alanheath is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced over 1,700 original films. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- http://www.ceepackaging.com - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.

Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!

Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

This was great to see. It showed the house I was born in Croft View back in 1957. Also the old and new school, I remember the day we moved to the new school. In addition, the walk to your old house. We called it the Leeches estate where the houses had plaster board internal walls. Looking forward to part 2!

@A2MMUmet Yes, the Leeches estate - where I lived too. I did not know the internal walls were plaster board. Just as well I find out now I suppose!!! Part two is posted.

It is a pity the weather was so bad when I when there otherwise I would have done more!

@alanheath Part 2 was excellent as well. I was born in Croft View opposite the new school. I am looking at these video's from Afghanistan so a nice reminder of a very special place.

@A2MMUmet From Lanchester to Afghanistan - that is a long way. (However I do have a film from Afghanistan on my third channel!!)

Back to the past. I like it. Recently I visited my town from my childhood and can't find the street so I asked somebody. 'What are you looking for?' He asked. 'Nothing, I just want to find my old house, I haven't been here since 20 years'.
