Live at redcliffe in 1990 to 93 working for torque ford toyota and vllage motors. Great place. Wish id got there when this clip was shot. Hi lorriane. And karen. Geoff steele. Nsw. 29/4/2023. Such memories. Woody piont. A great area relaxed saw it last year lots changed like me. Fish and chips. Still great. 😅
As a young child probably very early 70s, my family often went to Redcliff, with its lovely beaches. Fond memories. I would take my son there too in the late 80s.
I remember going to Kippa Ring Kmart when it looked like that, it was the only shopping centre open on a Saturday afternoon, I’d buy records there as a teenager.
There wasn't much of an obesity problem back then. People looked a lot thinner than they seem to be these days. Marvellous footage, this is an important social document. Thanks for sharing.
The parade video looks like its from the opening of the Houghton Highway bridge in December 1979. The original 1930's Hornibrook Bridge that ran alongside it was supposed to be upgraded but was closed permanently when the new bridge opened.
This is the kind of video that Millennials and Gen Z have absolutely no idea about, and need to see - the way Australia used to be, and not the absolute mess it is these days, and as such, they don't know how good Australia can be again.
Whatever happened to marching carnivals. I remember covering huge carnivals all over the place in the 70's and early 80's. Thousands of gilrs competing but I have not heard of it since.

Do you have footage of the gateway bridge opening?. I remember being young child and threw a tantrum and poor mum had to carry two children under 5 up and back on it. I remember seeing us on the news. ;) good to see the old horniebrook. (Bad spell I know.) Thanks
Great to see Redcliffe how I used to remember it as a kid.

Worth watching just for the old cars.
Makes me think of happier times with my parents.
This is the opening of the new Hornibrook highway. I shouted mum a helicopter ride that day that she still talks about
Every thing looks dead nowadays, back then things had colour and class.

....and people, generally, were much much happier and positive...you can kinda feel it just from watching the video. Good times!

@The_Jaguar_ Knight We used to walk around from Scotts Point on our holidays in the late 50's and playing on and in the Gayundah every day
I couldn't wait for dad to get to the old Hornibrook Highway for all the whoopedi doos.
I remember driving over that bridge as a kid and thinking the car was going to bounce right off the bridge into the water😂
i live here currently. such a nicer place before mass migration and insane house price inflation. need a million dollars for an average house here now
I used to ride on d old bridge

Hi! So glad you enjoyed this and really appreciate you sharing your memories too. Keep your eyes peeled, we might be able to dig something up.
@@auroraborealis5565 Cool Thanks
Wow i from brighton side
🤔... 2:38 a Go Go Mobile ! 😂
Great footage. 60s and 70s muscle cars all over the place, awesome.
Not a fat body anywhere. Back when people had to be outside 🇦🇺
I miss the old Australia..we let the government flood us with too much 3rd world. Now we're paying the price
So Smart.. So Proud.
Are you sure this is 70s?? At 12:18, thats a green 1980 VC Commodore!!!!
pre-release model? I have a 1981 XE Falcon, which weren't officially released for sale until 1982.
@@martinscrapp7166 actually, upon closer examination, it's 78-79 VB commodore, so you're off the hook. My mistake. Very similar tail lights.
Australia peaked in the 90s. Has gradually gotten worse ever since... Australia is the Argentina of the 21st century.
@@auroraborealis5565 open your eyes mate 🤠
Makes one think of communist parades. Who are they and what is the occasion?
Have you never seen American parades? Communist, really?
American marching girls and parades look communist do they?
I see skinny people.
