...well more like 1976. Those of you who remember Grafton Street prior to pedestrianisation should find this clip nostalgic. Brown buses, Mk1 Escorts, Renault 4's and bell bottoms all make an appearance.

A few members on this forum were probably sporting fantastic mullets and lamb chops then. :)

Love those old clips, even when I'm bored I'll take a trip down 'Youtube lane' and browse through the old advert clippings from the '80s, '90s, etc. Who would have thought that you'd look for ads! :)

I think the camera is stuck to the side of a "Mini Moke", but I'm open to correction on that one.. :D
