That was awesome!! I lived in EK from 1959-1963 and remember well the Hype of the Queens visit. I remember her car and her yellow outfit she wore as well as where she unveiled the Plaque. I loved those roundabouts, we could go anywhere without crossing a main road = super safe!!! Memories
Thank you for your comment, the film 'East Kilbride - Going to Town' (which is also on this channel) was released in 1977 and has a section looking aty the development of housing and the 12,000th family to move in from Glasgow. It does not have much footage of the actual house-building
myself, since scottish schools avoided the subject. My childhood nationalist hate subsided to a more mature understanding, of history the royals...but westminister ...still sucks :-) england is beautiful and after being in the prescence of the princess royal..such a lovely woman. I'm a fan of the royals, though weary of westminister x
