At 1 minute in watch out for the Cadwallader Atki
Having just watched this, does anyone else not recognise this as Stanstead? It shows a level crossing in the distance in one direction and quite a sharp bend in the road the other way. Neither of these are recognisable to me…
Edit Just realised its Stanstead Abbots not Mountfitchet!!!

The start of the Norwich by-pass construction at Thorpe in the late 80s, one of Bartrums waiting at the lights. I’m pretty sure it opened in 1992 and is one of the best time savers in the country. Cheers Haddy, Gt. Yarmouth.Nice photo mate. You’re right about the time saving, but I felt that once it was open they altered all the traffic light settings, I seem to remember being able go from Thorpe past Jupiter road, and if you hit the first lights on green you’d roll through each set right through to the Dereham road, but as soon as the bypass was open every set seemed to be on red

Ah that’s just the thing. Nice one Haddy. You probably wouldn’t believe this, but the southern bypass was before my time. I don’t remember it being built. Having said that, I remember going to Norwich from Swaffham and travelling thru Easton.You must remember it being built, or you’ve had a hard life
You cheeky on key. I didn’t leave school till 88 and then I don’t really remember going thru Norwich much. Used to avoid it.

MR VAIN I maybe passed you in Swaffham I was down twice in the early 70s to BROCKS FIREWORKS which was just through Swaffham. Brocks main plant was here in Sanquhar.

I think some of the ground where Brocks stood is still un used. Swaffham has changed a lot since the 70s mate
Great shot of the Scotish Newcastle Beer ERF IIRC This was one of the first to have disc brakes, ■■?, Regards Larry.
Another shot taken in Chester before they opened the A55
