The man giving the naration to the motorcycle part was called Ted Lambert. who owned a motor cycle and car dealership at the time, called Horsmans'. He was very keen on road safety, and made quite a few films. I worked for him for awhile, and he was a very good man...
@@hhoward14 Hello Mr Howard, Thank you very much for replying to my message,and sincere apologies for the delay in responding.I knew the name Horsmans as soon as l saw it,but couldn't place where they where located,Thank you! I wanted to be a motor mechanic when I left school,and can recall going into Voss Motors in Hanover St, to ask if they had any jobs going!,do you recall Voss's? I can't recall what they told me,but I never started for them.I tried quite a few places in Liverpool,would you believe walking from one to the other,l was offered an apprenticeship with somebody,(l can't for the life of me recall who,)as a Auto Electrician,but me Da put the blocks on it,saying it was too far to go.Your words on Mr Lambert and his concern for road safety,made me think what Mr Lambert would think of today's attitude to driving safety,esp' parking on pavements,which I can't stand.Regards,Mick.
I remember all the things shown, everyone seemed much happier then, even though they didn’t have much money, by todays standards. If kids misbehaved they got what my mother termed ‘a thick ear’ ….. great times.
The guy presenting the prize for Miss New brighton was an actor forgot his name think he died young was from south africa,1959 was a very good year Cammel Lairds had just launched the RMS Windsor Castle the biggest Liner built at the yard.
How can you not smile through this great film, love it 🥰

I vaguely recall Horsmans,where were they based?,was it the Walton area?,or where they near Hanover Street? Many thanks,Mick.
@@michaelgaskell7408 They had various branches, but the principle ones were at Renshaw street, and Pembroke place.
