Thank you for posting this. Have recently found out we have relatives who worked as weavers in Kidderminster!

The Music makes me think of old black and white " Carry On " films and "Norman Wisdom" movies.... :-)

well the point is they are not bored and its not boring to watch. People are interested in their own history, We have other peoples history rammed down our throats. the news is all about london and the world. Social history is little recorded and this is an excellent piece of history. Just think what this video will be like looking back in a 100 years after you and me have left the planet. its gold dust a fragment of time recorded never to happen again. do more. Cheers Rob

I'm still amused people are still bored enough to watch this. I've pulled all my other 'driving' videos (recorded in a phase I went through about five years ago), but have only kept this one up due to the fact it inexplicably continues to get hits - nearly 7,000 as of today. I'm now living 45 miles away so can't chronicle any changes.

2½ years after I uploaded this, I'm now living elsewhere and can't believe this has had over 5,000 views. Oh well, proof (if ever you needed it) that you lot have no taste :) I've only kept this video up because some of you are apparently fascinated by it enough to keep watching it...

Wow...that is well ace. I have moved from kiddy over 2 years ago after living there for nearly 3. It was very nice to "drive around" again! Well done for the initiative of making this video...it was a great idea!

I can remember driving along there^^. I've moved now, so everytime I watch this I listen to Highway to Hell from AC/DC, it fits perfectley and brings back memories.

I have to say that Kidderminster was a great place but the ring road is in the wrong place, it goes straight through the town and not around it like it should.

Simple - as I recorded ~15 minutes of footage, the video is double speed to squeeze it into YouTube's limits - and make it a little more exciting than reality :)
