7250, although Kodachrome 40 was used for the town & on the train shots. A Krasnogorsk was also used for town/train scenes, as It attracted less attention than the Arriflex would have done.

@@gazellefilms Thanks. I just shot some 7250 myself and look forward to getting it developed soon. Another spool just developed was mostly a dud, but we'll see.

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.

Kodak Vision 5201.

@@gazellefilms That is a solid Vision 2 film stock, used for the likes of THERE WILL BE BLOOD, SAMSARA, the musical HAIRSPRAY and THE MASTER in 70mm, at best, I have some in 16mm and cannot wait to try it out myself.

Could see how things were going, which is why this film was made.

Early training with a tiny round pen, sheep inside, dog outside, is a brilliant idea,. Was that common practice, do you happen to know? This is the first time I've seen it, but it makes so much sense it seems almost obvious in retrospect.

I can't remember now what happened, was long time ago. But checking the specs of this camera online (I no longer have the camera). It seems that It should be able to read 100 ASA.

@@gazellefilms l understand, thanks for your reply!

And I used to live in one of the cottages at 28.44. And seen In one of the episodes of it.

Thanks Rob, not always filming what I'd like to, but somethings better than nothing. Hope you're keeping well.

We were neighbours to Ivy on the other side, Bungalow called Tuscan. I assume you lived in the end terraced house next to Ivy. The car repair man who lived there must have moved in after you. All I can say is there was much trouble, with poor Ivy being on the receiving end. The village was very picturesque with it's castle & history. Unfortunately there were certain individuals who seemed hell bent to exploit it for their own ends. There was a family there with five feral kids, who caused nothing but trouble. After six years we moved out, and were glad to be gone.

​@@gazellefilms Amazing. I remember Tuscan - it was opposite the field behind the phonebox. I can remember a lady called Nora living in one of the bungalows near yours or maybe even in it. No, we didn't live in the old (Primitive) chapel adjoining Ivy's house. To my knowledge there was no-one living in it when we were there, I think it was just used (by Ivy?) for storage. We lived at Chapel View, opposite the newer (Wesleyan) chapel but were Ivy's immediate neighbours then. Previously we'd lived on Hagnaby Road. When Dad bought Chapel View it was a row of three small cottages which he knocked into one. It had an asbestos garage + large-ish garden next to it and beyond the hedge was Ivy's garden. While we were there, the Edges built their large house in the paddock opposite us. During the 1980s Mum & Dad sold Chapel View and the new owners - or possibly the ones after them - split the cottage into three again and added a fourth cottage onto the right-hand end + an extension at right angles to it, behind it. 'Chapel View' is now the name of just one of these four cottages. Later still someone built that (rather hideous) 'Meadowsweet Barn' holiday home thing on the end of what had been our garden. Also there were no houses in the field running off Moat Lane behind our garden -- it was just an open field. So now it all looks a bit cramped - like Manhattan. Dad was a teacher at the Franklin School in Spilsby and we had a Welsh collie dog called Tasha. Dad reckoned he knew about two-thirds of the adults in the village - either directly, or through their kids, many of whom he taught. There was a strong sense of community in the village and Dad was very happy there, but Mum was always a town girl, and after years of nagging him to move, he finally caved in and they moved to Skegness. They probably moved out before the old chapel was converted into a house and the 'problem' family and car repair business moved in. What's your surname, then? We knew Ivy very well. She often called in for a chat. I nearly fell off my seat when I saw her grave in your clip - but wondered why she was buried at Hareby and not in Old Bolingbroke. Did she or the Pensons come from Hareby originally?

You're welcome!

Was filmed with old 1970's movie camera.

Thank you, much appreciated.

Thank you

Thank You Much Appreciated.

This was put out on dvd around 15 years ago. Before that on vhs tape. A remaster for dvd is in the pipeline. Thank you for your positive comments, much appreciated.

There is no song, the title of the music I can't remember.

Very good to hear, thank you !

No but planning to make a video on the Surfers at Folkestone.

Never thought of it that way. But yes, could be a fitting description for it.

@@gazellefilms i think the music is warm and friendly

Well I see 53 people have thumbed it up, so I suppose it has provided a certain level of interest. As stated In the description, the film was shot over twenty years ago. In fact filming was started around 1995.

I remember being in a passenger train on this line!

The rail shots are a valuable record of the immediate post-provatisation era, and very valuable for the modeller. Thank you.
