Another fabulous video. The real value of it will be far in the future. A snap shot of your family showing the culture, the good and the bad of your city. The trains are fabulous. I loved Russia because i could root about places like that. As far as Mango's go. I'm sure there will never be a lack of them. The question is whether the general public will be able to afford them. Good wishes.

Thank you. I like to revisit my old videos myself sometimes. When I rewatch them, I get the feeling that a part of myself continues to live in that time and location.

I follow a few people like you. One is Ponderings of a Presbyterian. From Van Morrison to rural life in Northern Ireland. The other is excellent. Roger Griffiths. He's an ex teacher and does lots of Natural History short videos here. He'll be busy today, it being Burns Day!@@Ecoclimax
