Haven't been in 30 years, but pretty sure there weren't beard there then either. 😂

Any more old film from London and area?

[@KaspiansTravels]

I'll check and let you know here. They're mostly old family in-home Christmas films, but I've been pulling out ones that might have public interest--this one, the UWO parade, and the Boy Scouts banquet. There might be a few more coming, but will have to review them for relevance.

@@KaspiansTravels Thank you. I live in London. It's always interesting to see old film from my home town.

@@fabio40 That's where my dad's family's from. My uncle ran a garage there (Ferguson) and my cousin eventually took it over.
