Less of a channel, more a scrapbook of random bobbins.

Thanks to @et8deedee, who sent the drone up without us knowing and caught part of my descent following @maverix into the valley.

Salford Quays Cargo Crane Demolition
มุมมอง 886 ปีที่แล้ว
This shows the final bogie from the DD2 cargo cranes being lifted over the Metrolink power lines to be sent for scrap. Earlier in the day the cabs and jibs of both cranes had been cut from their supporting columns, lifted and broken up on site. Only a few months earlier these were locally listed structures of historic importance, being unique to the former Manchester Docks. The remains of the c...
NTL Cable Modem Installation
มุมมอง 1.2K6 ปีที่แล้ว
Rather dated explanation of how to use an NTL cable modem. The original CD was about to be binned when I thought it might be nice to upload it, so that everyone can relive those happy memories. You could also ignore everything the video says and connect your computer up with an ethernet cable with no additional configuration needed, but they didn't tell you that.

Salford BG Triathlon World Cup 2007 (Time Lapse)
มุมมอง 186 ปีที่แล้ว
Time lapse recording of the Salford BG Triathlon World Cup on 29th July 2007, filmed from Imperial Point with a terrible webcam. The picture focuses on the Lowry plaza in Salford Quays, which was the finishing point of the race that year. The recording covers some of the early setup, the race, and the breakdown.

From The Server Room, De La Salle College, Salford (Time Lapse)
มุมมอง 6026 ปีที่แล้ว
This is a very long time lapse made from the server room window of De La Salle College in Salford, using a webcam which was terrible even back in 2006. I'd hoped to get it to a year, but someone pulled the plug on it when the old servers were cleared out. The buildings were demolished in April 2015.

Nothing more reassuring that a bunch of men in white coats marching in lockstep while singing "And so say all of us."...
THE VOICEOVER WAS MIKE READ
Memorable advert, and back in the day when adverts were fun and catchy.
This commercial was funny
They don't make them like that anymore
I was 13 in 1982 and Fancied the pants off the lead actor 😂😂

Andrew, we are doing live special on August 14th about the Welsh built Dragon computer, and since it was a computer sold through Boots during it's heyday (and had no TV commercials of it's own), we would like to play a Boots commercial from the same time period (1982-1983) to show people in our North American audience what was a typical Boots commercial was like. Would we be able use this clip (and crediting you, of course)?
This one must be for the United Kingdom since ours is keeps you hummin’.

Why would they recommend a USB 1.1 adapter to connect to an Ethernet interface? This is a bottleneck and means more hardware to support that they’re responsible for. An Ethernet controller on a PCI bus would be a LOT faster and less of a bottleneck. Another point: Why didn’t they include an autorun.inf file on the disk to automatically start the installation executable on the disc, rather than have the end user type in the location of the executable on the optical drive in the run dialog? Also, what if your disc drive wasn’t mounted on the letter D? I remember back in those days, it was common to have more than one optical drive. I bet this caused a monumental headache for those working in customer support for the less tech savvy back in the day. Speaking of autorun stuff, I can’t remember if this is correct or not, but I have a feeling that Windows would auto start an executable if it was called “setup.exe”, rather than “install.exe”.
Spark Plug They said the application should start automatically. However, some users may have turned off the Autorun feature of the OS.
When I was 8 years old this really tickled me for some reason. But... Plagiarism spotter - It's "We're in the money" with the notes not quite in the right order
Hi Andrew, may I use this footage for a countdown video please?
Joshua Lynn Sure; I mean, it’s not really mine - but I can’t imagine the ghost of MFI will come chasing anyone. 🙂
Cherry and walnut sounds really nice, what happened to them?
Used to have these a lot in the 80s, very nice they were too!
Reminds me of Star Wars a new hope
Reiss Wheatley Strangely enough, this aired during what I think was the network premiere of ‘A New Hope’ on ITV. That’s why I had this copy of the ad; this was captured from a VHS recording of Star Wars made by my Dad. Think it was the last block of ads before the attack on the Death Star.
That’s crazy as i was telling my other half exactly the same thing only my copy was on Betamax ☹️also by my father. Memories 😊
Same here - if I remember rightly, it was the very first advert in the very first break when it was given its network premier on ITV (and was also featured in another break later in the film)... Had that on VHS for many years afterwards
I went to this college, started 1995 and was kicked out in 1997. Great place, amazing laughs, can't believe it closed.
Yum
I love time lapse recordings, with the changing light and movements of people.
It's a great shame that those cranes were scrapped. They are a point of interest and should have been kept for future generations.
Aidan O'Rourke Totally agree. I was in touch with a couple of people in the council, but despite some interesting reports and ideas they’d had, nothing came of it. Money again, though some of the figures I saw for refurbishment seemed excessive. Despite the safety concerns people were reported to have, they were structurally very sound. All thick steel, not much more than surface corrosion, especially seeing as they’d already stripped the handrails and ladders from the jibs. London Docklands shows what could have been done with them, and their cranes were the larger, ‘off-the-shelf’ version of these custom made ones.
Many thanks for highlighting this. In Dublin docks they have also kept a couple of cranes. Why can't we preserve our heritage like other cities do?
Can you still get this?
Treasure Hunter UK in France yes

Peter Murphy so beautiful
My HSBC/old Midlank bank branch is closing today. I'll miss it. And I also miss Midland. They were so much better than HSBC in every way.
When i was a kid in the early 80's this was the first time i heard this song! I had no idea it had come out in the sixties by manfred mann and didn't have any lines about crunching into light crispy rice or chewing caramel toffee!!!!
The Manfred Mann version was one I remember my folks playing!! "Into the valley rode the 300, 54321"
This was one of the adverts in one of the breaks when "Star Wars" was shown on TVS in either 1982 or 1983. I think just before the Death Star battle. Must have watched the bloody thing on fast forward 20 times.
KingKaitain In which case, you’ve just watched it again - this was taken from a VHS of Star Wars recorded in ‘82, so quite possibly the same broadcast!
If I remember rightly, it was the very first advert in the very first break when it was given its network premier on ITV (and was also featured in another break later in the film), although I was in the HTV Wales region, so may have differed slightly in other regions... Had that on VHS for many years afterwards
