Yes, Burton is a good town, sadly lead by Fools & Horses, whom just seem to want to pull each other down. One wants one thing, the other another., so there is never ever a cohesive move in a forward direction. Just look or remember how Burton quietened down when the By -pass was constructed. Then that `Bailey` called St Peters bridge was assembled and the traffic all returned. Call that progress I do not I call it greed and inefficiency of vision. Why in heavens name can not the councils forget there political `Bent` and work together for a better quality of life for all whom live "In Burton".

I had 27 years in Burton! From what I've heard it's got worse 😂

I saw Mx. Smith on Most Haunted years ago in an episode where she was in costume as Mary Queen of Scots. Reciting a speech that Mary gave or would have to visitors to the castle. She was great then as she is in this video. Hope to see more like this. It helps to bring History to life. Thank you for uploading and hope to see more. Thank you once again.

Can’t believe this ,, finding out where Swadlincote is ,never looked before ,,,and hear people are being interviewed on Friday 13th ,,,,, today is Friday 13th ,10years later,!!that is strange !!

Lots of memories from Uttoxeter. Great place. Nearly as good as Abbots Bromley.

I went to school at Uttoxeter Secondary Modern Boys 1958 to 62 but theres no trace of the place on UA-cam! Im sure im not imagining it. Must be someone else remembers it??? Mr Morgan Headmaster, Mr Critchlow from Rocester was Geography teacher - brought in loads of Roman artifacts dug up in Rocester, Mr Good - Science I think, Mr Plant - Art, Mr Parry - Woodwork. Mr Hurst Maths. Must be somebody out there who remembers it. :-)

didn't know Blake Fielder Civil lived in Burton now

GOD YOU'RE ADVERTISING THIS CRAP HOLE !!!

Moved here 27 yrs ago. Loved the town, it was clean, tidy and we had a council that weren't so greedy. Now its filthy, zero activities, the rivers are polluted, there's garbage and constant fly tipping everywhere. Oh! And now we have an Mp "Katie Griffiths ", who got in on a mass sympathy vote due to her now ex hubby being a town sex pest, he was previously the Mp for Burton also, you couldn't make this shite up! Our current Mp believes her veiws on local decisions are the only ones that matter! She also voted aye to continue animal testing. Despicable woman, so many won't be voting her in come 2024!

Up until the '80's I thought Bargates was a great, unique building. In the early '70's there was a fashion shop there, me and my sister used to go to a cafe towards the Washlands for egg custards and had great times at Coasters' disco in the early '80's. Happy memories for me ❤

It is a lot of fun to be on air. it is a feeling that only being on air can you know how it feels. No words can tell you.

I say, the bastards who leave their dog shit in the pavement and people drive should have it posted through their fucking letter box!!!!! Only dirty C***s leave their shit on the floor. Frigging hang them up by their ear and throw rocks at them, dirty bastards. My village used to be a dog sewerage line and there was shit on my fucking drive way almost every day of the year. I even stepped in it and when I confronted the dirty C*** who left it, she couldn't give a shit, dirty bitch! ) :<

Swad is a small town with a big heart ❤

I grew up there, went to De Ferrers, but let’s be honest, it’s a shithole!🤣

I was born in Burton in 1957 and left my home town in 1983 to live in Winnipeg. I miss my home town and still visit it from 1986, 2001,2003,2005,2008,2010,2013,and my last visit 2015.

Thank you for this. I have photographs of several pieces the same shape 53 or 54 as the last very tall vase, which were decorated by my Great Grandfather, John Barker (1867-1943), many years before the people in the mural, but he was a contemporary of William Oram Trivett (in the mural). John Barker states he was head designer-decorator under Henry Tooth of course, between 1894 and c1900. He was York School of Art trained in design, alongside an almost five year apprenticeship in the medieval trade of the "Painted Glass" trade in York, with the master of that craft, John Ward Knowles, between 1884 and 1888. In 1889 he started at Burmantofts as "Artist" then soon after went with a group of artists, a modeller and others fed up with pay and conditions started in direct competition as the Leeds Art Pottery (LAP) also in 1889. When a partner and others left LAP he became head designer under the uncle of the girl he would marry, Harold Leach (LAP owner) who had been one of the top artists at Burmantofts as was his former LAP partner Roland Charles Browne). After starting examinations with South Kensington through the York School of Art in 1884, he continued after his apprenticeship and by 1893 John Barker had won four or more National art awards, called "The "Queen's Prize" as well as a "National Book Prize" in the examinations held each year. Each year the best seven works would be selected from over 2,000 art works submitted annually from all over the Kingdom, and John Barker was chosen in seven different years to be among those seven chosen, and of these he was the winner six times, winning one of these while at Bretby, through the Burton [on Trent? Art?] Institute[ ?] in 1895. By 1893 he had won four National art awards, his first in 1887, he claimed was his best, as he says he was the youngest ever to win, the first ever under twenty, when he was 19 years old. By 1893 with four National art awards, coupled with his art training, apprenticeship and experience at LAP (1889 to 1893), to become head designer at the Leeds Art Pottery his resume when he applied to Henry Tooth would have looked impressive. So after eloping with the owner's niece in February 1893, he did not go back to the Leeds Art Pottery and he and Maud, who was also a pottery decorator, may have gone to Burmantofts for some months before he applied and they moved to South Derbyshire, living at 28 Hartshorne Road, Woodville. In that house my grandfather Leo and his brother Jack were born in 1895 and 1897 respectively. He remained as designer working with Henry Tooth, former Linthorpe Art Pottery Manager, for six years. When he finally left Bretby circa 1900 John Barker became the chief designer-decorator for Hexter & Humpherson's newly combined Royal Aller Vale & Watcombe Art Potteries, at Torquay in Devon. He was head designer there from c1900 to 1905 then later between 1915 and 1924. In 1905 he helped friend, Charles Collard to start a new art pottery Collard & Co Poole Dorset (by 1909 called "Crown Dorset" later "Honiton Pottery"), then was appointed as head designer at Pountney & Co's Bristol Pottery at their brand new, "state of the art" pottery at Fishponds, Bristol between 1906 and 1908. There he produced several ranges of "art wares" they called them, which carried branded names like 'Bristol "Baronial" Pottery' all coming with a "JB" printed mark. In 1908 or 1909 John Barker started his own Tor Vale Art Pottery with one of his decorators at Bristol, Enoch Staddon, until Staddon left in 1910. Tor Vale Art Pottery continued in production from 1908-09 through to 1915. As mentopned he spent the next nine years as head designer at Watcombe, before migrating to Australia in 1924. In a nutshell! Would love to see more pottery shown from that era he was at Bretby - 1893 to c1900

All these cats are all just a money scam by car makers and goverments soon the average person won’t be able to afford a car

there is no smart water website !

where can I buy smart water ? ? ? ? ?

Hi.My one is RH400H 2009,Since I replaced for new I added protection.Tats make job. Sombody trayet steal again but seeing protection-gone away.

What do they do with them?

OMG...How much more....??? Love Child = Elton John + Bernard Manning. Bless.

Please, please, never make or upload another video again.

True ambassadors for Swad.....brain dead, uneducated, acceptance is alien to them, never been across the county border. Well done.

Love-child of Bernard Manning x Elton John?

For god sake where is this interviewer from

The Sex Pistols cassette I stole in 1987 brought me here

Nearly 3 years in this town, and I love it ☺️

it wasn't Henry's horses it was ayrmaines horses that were kept at the racing stables yes Henry dabbled but she was the true horse person of the family

You look like we are related, omg!!

Brilliant town!

Who cares about catching them. The law will let them out the next day to continue stealing. I want something they cannot steal.

10 to 15 minutes????? In America these dirty thieves can do it in 1 to 2 minutes maximum. Wonder why such a big difference in the time? I just lost my catalytic converter and 2 oxygen sensors on my Honda Element. It's parked outside at an assigned parking spot at the apartment building where I live. I have to have it fixed and its very expensive. The biggest problem is I have no way to protect it from happening again, so I have to sell it right away, I am sick about it. Putting on a cat converter guard is only a temporary deterrent to slow the "IDIOT LAZY THIEVES" down, but can't stop them. The laws must go after the places that buy these cat converters in order to stop them. I've also heard that many of the cat converters are also being shipped over seas, don't know if that's true or not though. Any ideas if alarms help, or etching vin numbers helps?

The best thing about Burton are the roads leading out of it.

Dreadful!

You are pretty good at interviewing as well Graeme ;-)

Cheers 🍺🍺🍺

My husband and I live in Salt Lake, UT, and love Lesley's stories! We wish she would narrate audio books to listen to while we fall asleep at night. She has such a fascinating voice!

Even if they got caught, then what, 7 days community service suspended for 2 years, or £7 fine paid at 50p a week.

She is such a super medium - she has my greatest respect!!!May God protect you Patricia!!! Petra from Germany

Burton-upon-Trent is a decent town, but it's sadly decaying. Businesses closing and the younger generations moving away. Great shame.
