    I am a memory man like yourself. Wherever I would go I'd reminisce about what *used to be here and there* decades ago. Most times the current people don't even know about the past of their own local area because so many have moved away and places changed ownership three and four times.
    The terrible state of roads and the amount of garbage littering the land never seems to change in most parts of the world unfortunately. Thanks for the walking tour. They're always enlightening no matter what.

    Thank you for posting this video I enjoyed seeing the village I grew up, my family’s house is on the Public Rd directly across from middle street. I loved seeing all the changes. Going to Starlite cinema was a big deal, everybody would get dressed up. Depot damn and seeing the mosque and the Roman Catholic Church, Malgrotut primary school going around the bend towards Versailles …so many memories. It’s nearly 50 years since we left Guyana. Loved this.

      Starlight is no more, building razed and Toolaram Supermarket will soon be occupying that spot. Word has it that Exxon bought out their current location which is just up the road and on the same side as the ( Versailles ) mosque.

    My dad and his siblings - all in their 80s now - grew up here!! All of them left Guyana many years ago for Canada and the UK. I've only been to Pouderoyen once, in the 1990s and the Starlight Cinema was still open. The people who lived in the house my dad grew up in remembered my dad's family and invited us in to see the house - they were super friendly! My dad was tickled to show it to us. It made me so happy, it was an amazing thing to see. In my memory, they lived in the house across from the Starlight but I could be wrong. My dad wanted to quit school to work at that sawmill but my grandpa put his foot down and said no, you're finishing school!
    Thank you for this video. It makes me feel homesick for a place I don't even know. I'm sending it to my dad - and I've subscribed to your channel!

      Cool, I also grew up there, we lived behind the Azeezes ( the late Maji of the Versailles Mosque) They sold their house, which is still there ) to the Ramsamoojs. They migrated to Canada
      I will definitely know your dad.
      We left there in 1990.

      I sent him the link and this is what he said...
      " I don't recognize much: the Catholic Church and school I attended, the Starlite cinema under demolition and the sawmill located just behind where we lived. The roads are paved, with all those overhead power lines, and did the guy say they have a supermarket??
      "The aerial view at the end shows a different place from the little village I grew up in, population about 150.
      I think my three little brothers would love to see this."

      Yes man, that was the place to check out the girls, especially Sunday afternoon 5 pm Indian Movie.
      Pouderoyen was the brightest Village on the West Demerara because we had many things in a small area. We had a Cinema, Funeral parlour, 3 rum shop 😄, a butcher shop, a sawmill, tailor shop , slaughter house , library .
      The Cinema was the biggest of course , people used to me there from as far as Nismes . A lot of times on a bicycle , boys would tow their friends on their bicycle all the way from Nismes etc to the Cinema.
