Grimsby Inshore Fishing Boats 1960's 1970's
I was given this film because my dad was supposed to be in it. It came as a VHS cassette. and was originally shot on cine film. Due to being copied so many times it has lost a lot of it's quality. It shows the inshore fishing boats from the old dry dock. My dad (Harry Vasey) had his own boat GY59 "Olive" and would have known most of the people in this film. He fished the river Humber for many years. Beam trawling, long lining, shrimping and also trawled up some odd stuff including a clay pipe, a radial engine from a vintage seaplane, (now both in a museum) and several WWII unexploded bombs !! I have treasured memories as a kid of going down dock and out on the Olive. The film also shows some deep sea sidewinder and stern trawlers, tugs etc and an air show, could be RAF Binbrook, what do you think ?...Dad makes his brief appearance at 15:40 waving at the camera from his mate Nico's boat, the only moving film I have of him. I've added some nice shots of The Olive at the end.

This is a visit to a scooter rally in one of my favourite places, Whitby on the east coast of Yorkshire. Steeped in history the whole area is beautiful. Scarborough, Bridlington, Robin Hood's bay, Staithes etc. Some nice bikes, and a drop of rain did not put anyone off.

This is a video I made some time in the mid 1990's showing the appliances, uniforms and type of equipment we had in use at the time. Other films I made include, a visit to Rimar salvage yard, a visit to RAF Coningsby, and a look inside the lockers of a working Dennis Rapier fire engine. I will upload these soon.
Brigg Bike Night 1994
Переглядів 6Місяць тому
Hi, this is a short video of Brigg Bike Night 1994. Always a good, well attended event. Classic, vintage, custom and modern bikes. Look out for a few rarities, not least the local legend, the late Barrie Ladlow. (He forgot more than most of us know about vintage bikes) Also the British beat bobby, armed to the teeth with a note book and pencil and a wooden truncheon, (Just in case the crowd tur...
Humberside Fire and Rescue Service. Blue Lights
Переглядів 573 місяці тому
Security camera footage. A very large fire started in the bin storage area behind a building of multiple occupancy and what started out as a quiet evening, soon became a hive of activity and blue lights. Thankfully no one was injured. A big, well deserved shout out to all the services who attended including the backroom boys and girls, control staff etc.
Humberside Fire Brigade Passing out parade. Course, 01/1997
Переглядів 784 місяці тому
I made this video of my son's passing out parade in 1997. He has about 3 years left to retirement, some of the other lads have already gone. I myself joined in 1978 and served 25 years. I filmed it from the grassy knoll with a hand held video camera so some of the close-ups are a bit shaky. My son, "Stace" is at centre rank nearest the camera when facing the guest tent. The battery life in the ...

In 1995 my son, my brother and I went to the motorcycle show at the NEC in Birmingham UK. We all enjoyed the show and the musical interludes supplied by THE JETS rockabilly band. (Still rocking by the way !) This is the video footage I took on the day. I myself make a rare appearance in front of the camera at 07:00 sat on a Yamaha Virago 535 in the grey leather jacket. I later bought a Virago 5...
Tom Keating on Tom Keating

In 1984 after the second series of Tom Keating on painters was broadcast on channel 4, a special programme was transmitted of an interview with Tom Keating himself. I recorded this episode to VHS Video. I later transferred it to digital and enhanced it as good as I could. This episode was not mentioned in the free pamphlets from channel 4 which I had ordered to accompany both series (as seen at...

Flower Parade Le Roc St Andre Brittany 1998
Everything a painter should be....legend :)
Great job, what joy.
Thank you so much for posting this. I have been looking for it for decades! I have a fragment of the episode on an old VHS tape and have searched for the full episode in all sorts of ways ever since I recorded it. He really was a remarkable man, not only for his skill in painting but, to me, even more so for his humanity and humility.
Hi Jamie. I'm glad you like it. Sorry you had to wait so long.
It is astonishing one coming from such a dismally deprived life and as gifted as he turned out to be should reach fame and excellence through forgery of the masters in art. I can only speculate what he could have achieved had he had even a modicum of advantage. It is to his perseverance and credit and love of art he is the genius he was. His breath of knowledge of master techniques amazes me. I have watched many of his videos. Thank you for highlighting him and his life. I am, and will always be, a great admirer of Mr. Keating.
He hated to see poor artists exploited by the upper echelons of the art establishment, like a latter-day Robin Hood. Flooding the market with fakes was a stroke of genius. As he said "serves them right".
Thank you so much for uploading these. Tom Keating is a hero of mine and a big influence, and I'm honored to see these episodes in great quality. As well as this one, which has never been uploaded anywhere to my knowledge.
Hello, I'm glad you like them. These two VHS cassettes had been sat on a shelf for decades. The times my wife said "Why don't you dump those old things, and that old VHS player, you will never use them again".
Odd but interesting
