Since retiring from full time work I have focused more on my interest in Photography & Videography.<br />
Below I will be posting any new material as it occurs.<br />
To start with I'm sharing a link to a YouTube video of my first collaboration with my neighbour and musician friend David Wright. His website can be found at <a href="https://www.admusicshop.com/" target="_blank">https://www.admusicshop.com/</a><br />

Both my father and his brother (Bill) were in the Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC) during the war.<br />
I think they were among some of the bravest soldiers in the front line because <b>unarmed</b> themselves, they had to retrieve wounded soldiers from the battlefront and get them back to the field hospital for treatment.<br />
<br />
My father was captured by the Germans in North Africa and Bill was captured by the Japanese in Thailand. Both spent approximately three years incarcerated in Prisoner of War (POW) camps. For more about that please see my previous blog (Returning from War).<br />
Below are the National Archive records which I came across recently.<br />

Bedford (1815 – 94) was the first photographer to accompany a royal tour. In
1862, when he was asked by Queen Victoria to travel with the Prince of Wales,
Bedford was an accomplished and respected professional photographer, with two

Based around the former 1780's Ironworks established by John Bedford, the
park is an interesting mix of industrial archaelogy, rare plants and flowers,
where visitors can study interpretation panels, take country walks and nature
trails, or just relax over a picnic lunch while the children take advantage of
the play areas. <br />
<br />
The central feature of Bedford Park is the old Cefn Cribwr Ironworks, the
remains of which is now protected as a Scheduled Ancient Monument and it is one
of the most complete of its kind in Britain. <br />
<br />
The original route of the old Dyffryn, Llynfi and Porthcawl Railway now forms
Bedford Park's main footpath, which follows the line and is the most important
footpath in the park, as well as being part of the National Cycle Route. <br />
<br />
The Celtic Trail as it’s now called, is a traffic-free path for cycling,
walking and wheelchairs and runs from Tondu to Frog Pond Wood. The route covers
seven miles and passes through a variety of beautiful scenery giving the
opportunity to explore different natural habitats and local wildlife. The route
also includes the Tondu to Pyle Community Route, which forms a part of the
National Cycle Network of Britain (Route 4). <br />

<![endif]-->During WW2 a young man called William John Bedford enlisted in the army. <br />
Private W J Bedford service number 6459205. He enlisted with the Royal
fusiliers who have their garrison at the Tower of London. <br />
At some time during his service he transferred to The Royal Army Medical Corp.
and was with 32nd RAMC at the fall of Singapore on the 15th February 1942. <br />
The Queen Alexandra hospital came under h<span class="textexposedshow">eavy
Japanese shelling. A Japanese soldier was sighted and a British soldier went
out to meet him pointing at his red cross arm band recognised to protect
military personnel during armed conflict. The Japanese soldier ignored this and
shot at the soldier though he missed. Further information can be found here:-</span> <a href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/stories/60/a8515460.shtml" target="_blank">BBC WW2 peoples War</a><br />
<span class="textexposedshow">I cannot envisage what happened next but the
survivors, about 200, were tied up and forced to march to buildings a fair
distance from the hospital. Many were not spared on the journey. </span><br />
<span class="textexposedshow">These survivors were divided into three rooms with
no ventilation or water, some died during the night. </span><br />
<span class="textexposedshow">11 am the following morning men were told to leave
in groups of two on the pretext of getting water . As the screams and cries
cold be heard it became clear that the Japanese were executing the prisoners
when they left their room . Those that survived became Japanese prisoners of
war. </span><br />
<span class="textexposedshow">Why Bill Bedford, as known after the war, was spared
I do not know, he very rarely ever spoke of war, probably to protect his
children and grand children . I know he bartered for his life. I know that he
helped save Japanese lives to spare his own. The funny thing is, if you ever
asked him, he would say it was never that bad. </span><br />
<span class="textexposedshow">How he got home I am not too sure as he is no
longer with us and the army records have no proper record of him returning. </span><br />
This is a small part of the history I have of a remarkable man that without
him I would never be. <br />
The war years were never good for the living or the ones that died. <br />
He only met my nan because her mothers house was bombed when a lot of family
were home on leave, and as his sister was dating one of my nans brothers. Many
of who died when the bomb fell on my great grandmothers house - but that is
another sad story of love and sadness<br />
LEST WE FORGET those that died, those that endured , all that fought to give
us hope. Let us show respect not just for one day but in how we live our lives
everyday.<br />

<b>After his time as a milkman Dad had several years of ill health which was put down to damage to his stomach when held as a Prisoner of War. Needless to say he found it difficult to hold down a steady job. However, as his health improved he managed to get office based work at Gestetners, the duplicating machine manufactures ( further down see a youtube video of a typical machine of the 1950's)</b><br />
<b>Although we may smile at the antiquity of the machine, in those days it was cutting edge technology!!</b><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
After leaving Harris Lebus Dad became a milkman for United Dairies.<br />
I don't remember exactly how long the job lasted but it was several years, I know this because all through my younger teenage period I went with him at weekends. Getting up at 5am to go out in all weathers was no fun at all but it had to be done if I wanted some pocket money!<br />
<br />
It was during this time there was a huge influx of immigrants from the West Indies and many of them settled in Tottenham. I always remembered they would want gold top milk (the best, with cream on top). If I mistakenly left a red top I was in big trouble when they caught up with me!!<br />
<br />
Christmas time they would always invite us in for a drink (mainly rum!) and, yes, I do remember Dad getting a bit tipsy one Christmas.<br />
<br />
Anyway, it was as a milkman Dad also became a hero. One of the houses on his route was on fire when he arrived there. He could hear there were people inside so he went in after them - saving two women and two children from probable death.<br />
<br />

Below is the type of milk float he drove.<br />
Believe it or not you could get your driving license in those days for driving one of these!<br />
Thankfully, Dad didn't own a car and didn't want one so the roads were safe.<br />

Since writing the article <i><b>"Returning from War"</b></i> in November, I've now come across a book which I knew had been written by one of the soldiers at the same P.O.W. camp as Dad.<br />
<br />
Jen managed to get a copy on the internet for 1p!!<br />
I must admit I felt a twinge of anger that she got it for 1p because I felt the price demonstrated a lack of respect for the guys who had suffered so much during those years.<br />
<br />
Anyhow, here's a picture of the book cover.<br />
<br />

As we now have a copy of the book it will be kept in a safe place so if anyone wants to read it they only have to ask.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's a flavour of the book, which starts off with John (Jack) Fox paying a visit to the camp after the war.</div>

I visited the camp myself in 1992 and although the camp was still there, it was in an extremely dilapidated state. The surrounding countryside is quite magical so I sat for a while trying to imagine Dad there and what it must have been like for him, imprisoned, hungry and so far away from home. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The local village, <i>Fonte Dell' Amore,</i> is like stepping back in time so I assume it was exactly the same when Dad was there.</div>

<b>I think it must have been shortly after his period as a bus conductor that Dad joined Harris Lebus, the furniture manufactorer. Dad was a warehouse-man based initially at the Tottenham depot. </b><br />

<br />
<b>Harris Lebus</b> was a furniture manufacturer and wholesaler based in the East End of London in Tabernacle Street with a factory in Tottenham. The firm supplied stores such as Maple & Co., mainly producing bedroom and dining cabinets.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.harrislebus.com/" target="_blank">The Harris Lebus Website</a><br />
<br />
<span class="mw-headline" id="History">History</span>During the period of its finest output in the 1900s, the style of furniture is closely associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement,
identified by overhanging cornices, inset door panels and square to
turned legs with pad feet in the manner of William Birch of High
Wycombe. The off the peg hardware is unfussy and stylistically well
designed. These pieces are highly sought after.<br />
As with many larger firms their designers are kept anonymous. This
prolific manufacturer had more to do with bringing the Arts and Crafts
style to the masses than any other.<br />
In later years Harris Lebus became a household name being the largest furniture manufacturer in the world.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-1">[1]</sup><br />
During the Second World War the firm produced the Airspeed Horsa glider, the Mosquito multi role aircraft. The firm also undertook Top-secret operations, such as building replica Sherman tanks out of wood.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-3">[3]</sup><br />
Following the war the firm became part of the government scheme to produce utility furniture bearing the CC41
mark and were central in providing cheaper manufacturing techniques to
provide the country with lower cost furniture with which they could
rebuild their homes, and in fact their design team invented and patented
the technique of facing man-made boards with other woods.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-4">[4]</sup>The
Company also devised and perfected the means of assembling Furniture
from preformed sections and completing the construction by curing resin
glue lines, utilising 'Radio Frequency' electricity, or 'R.F.' There was
no metal fixing required in the assembly at all.<br />
After financial difficulty, caused by a period of poor management
which was not Family, the firm finally closed in 1969; however some
could say that the techniques developed at Lebus have caused the
revolution in manufactured panels in home furnishing and flat pack that
many of their counterparts use today.<br />
<br />
I think it would have been 1952 that we all moved down to Woodley, I was 2 and Jen 6.<br />
Harris Lebus had a warehouse there, it was sited on the old Woodley Aerodrome which had served as an RAF training school prior to, and during WW2. I believe it was there that the WW2 veteran Douglas Bader crashed his plane. Despite loosing both legs he went on to become an ace fighter pilot. Anyone interested should look up the old black & white film "Reach for the Sky" - circa 1956 - which tells his story with Kenneth Moore playing the lead role.<br />
<br />
The hangers, previously used for aircraft made a perfect storage facility for the large wardrobes etc ready for dispatch to customers.<br />

Unfortunately this is the only photo we have of Dad at the warehouse, although there are others taken in the grounds.<br />
For me this was a truly enchanting period of my life. We lived in the Flying School, which was enormous, we even had a playroom big enough to skate inside!<br />
I remember exploring the old outbuildings that were full of aircraft parts - I later regretted not being older because there were enough parts to build my own aeroplane!<br />
As the airfield was our back garden, Dad & I would go mushroom picking at about 6am on Sunday mornings. They were then served up with eggs & bacon for Sunday breakfast.<br />
<br />
I also remember taking one of the bedsheets and some string on one occasion........<br />
<br />
I climbed to the top of one of the buildings then attached the string to the four corners of the sheet. The other end of the strings I tied round my waist and with no further thought jumped off the roof. Naturally I expected to parachute gently down.......<br />
Hmmm, it was just like the old cartoons, I plummeted to the ground just as the sheet unfurled over my head!!<br />
Ouch, big ouch, but I had discovered gravity, and how it works!! Thankfully, no broken bones.<br />

I'm sure we've all had a good laugh at some time watching this TV series. It ran from 1969 - 1973 so the younger members of the family may have seen "snippets".<br />
Well, for Dad it was a reality - albeit for a very short period.<br />
<br />
After the war the government was tasked with finding jobs for all those soldiers returning from war and with no job to go to.<br />
Dad was offered the job of bus conductor, which he gladly accepted as he had not had much formal education ( he left school at 14 with no qualifications).<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
First he had to be trained in the art!</div>

Given all the professional photos taken at the time I think he was the "pin up" boy for an advertising campaign. Maybe for London Transport or possibly the government. Either way, London Transport Museum at Brooklands now have a set of the photos in one of their displays.</div>

What I forgot to mention, and I suspect so did Dad, was that he had a seriously fiery temper which was <b><u><i>great</i></u> </b>before the war when he was going to become a professional boxer, but not so good for dealing with the public.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All I know is a certain passenger was very rude to Dad and found himself on the floor before he knew what had happened. This was about 6 months ( I'm guessing, but it wasn't long) into Dad's career and ended it rather abruptly!!</div>

actual White Hart Lane road lies a few hundred yards north of the main
entrance). The landlord spotted the increased income he could enjoy if
Tottenham played their matches behind his pub and in 1899 the club moved in.
They brought with them the stand they used at Northumberland Park which gave
shelter to 2,500 fans. Notts County were the first visitors to 'the Lane' in a
friendly watched by 5,000 people and provided in £115 in receipts; Spurs won

owners of the ground. As the club grew new stands were added. A new main stand
was added in 1909, the East stand was also covered this year and extended
further two years later. The profits from the 1921 FA Cup win were used to
build a covered terrace at the Paxton Road end and the Park Lane end was built
at a cost of over £3,000 some two years later. This increased the ground's
capacity to around 58,000 with room for 40,000 under cover. The East Stand
(Worcester Avenue) stand was finished in 1934 and this increased capacity to
around 80,000 spectators but cost £60,000</span></div>

In his latter teenage years Dad was a boxer, albeit an amateur. He boxed under the name of "<i><b>Boy'o William</b></i>" and was about to become professional when war broke out which put an end to his aspirations. (Though I think secretly Mum had a bit to say about it too!)<br />

He used to go to fairgrounds and earn a few shillings by "staying a round" with the fairground boxer!!<br />

He also tried to get me to follow in his footsteps, training me at an early age.<br />

I joined the Harris Lebus Boxing Club when I was 14, with Dad as my coach and subsequently I did win the Tottenham Grammar School boxing championship, but the novelty soon waned after a couple of heavy defeats!! </div>

I think that saddened Dad but Mum was delighted.</div>

Welcome to our family blog site.<br />
It was only after going through some old photos of our mum and dad
when they were young, we came across one of my dad in his army
uniform. This got us to thinking how little we knew of his army
career. Dad didn’t talk about it very much but from the little
information we did gather I knew he had been a prisoner of war.<br />
So we decided to do some digging to leave a commemorative web page to
mum and dad (Robert William Bedford and Winnie May Bedford (nee King) so
that our children and their children would have a record of their
grandparents ( & great grandparents).<br />
<br />
<h2 style="text-align: left;">
So where do we begin? </h2>
<h2 style="text-align: left;">
Dad signed up for the army in 1934 at Mill Hill.</h2>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
We don't know why he chose this particular path.<br />
Dad was posted to Aldershot Command Royal Army Medical Corp unit and passed an<br />
examination in August 1934.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrHTEwx9OgYdGFw4P1vkCkqeXBeeWxB_ZGwTHah0SVU6ZIrT1Ng4nj7tWRcr5xKf7bZYCye-hLagWuv_RvXY8ffwAnqFv96M1LWlWxmXctqVFlF33NEUz_YDNuOUxD6Wcc7I2LJIVX3F9s/s1600/C310.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrHTEwx9OgYdGFw4P1vkCkqeXBeeWxB_ZGwTHah0SVU6ZIrT1Ng4nj7tWRcr5xKf7bZYCye-hLagWuv_RvXY8ffwAnqFv96M1LWlWxmXctqVFlF33NEUz_YDNuOUxD6Wcc7I2LJIVX3F9s/s400/C310.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
It remains a mystery what the exam covered but we suspect medical training. Dad then passed a further exam in November of the same year in English, Army and Empire, map reading and maths.<br />
Strange combination but it's there in black and white<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Dad then underwent a course of instruction and passed with flying colours in<br />
Anatomy, Physiology, First Aid, Medical and surgical nursing and Ward Management<br />
and Hygiene to qualify as a Nursing Orderly First Class in July 1935.<br />
<br />

The period from 1935 - 1940.</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The time between 1935 to 1940 is a little murky as we do not actually know what</div>
year dad met mum but what we do know is it was at a dance. They both loved<br />
dancing but dad was a real dab hand at it and had partners for all the different<br />
dances - much to mum's annoyance!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We're not sure if it was love at first sight but on 21st October 1940 dad and mum got married. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now this of course should have been a joyous and romantic occasion but it was</div>
not to be! The sirens went off in good old London Town so Mum & Dad along with other<br />
families headed for the air raid shelter. All night the bombs dropped around<br />
them so a lovely 'hugged up', (well it might have been ''huddled up') night was<br />
not to be and Dad and Mum ascended from the shelter the next morning with their<br />
marriage unconsummated!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>As if that wasn't bad enough the worst happened and Dad<br />
got called up that very day to go to war..........</i></b></div>

<b>The period from 1940 - 1943.<i> </i></b></h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Dad was sent out to join the 7th Armoured Division (known as the Desert Rats).</div>
Communication was practically if not totally non existent until mum received a<br />
telegram to say Private Robert William Bedford was missing believed dead.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mum was in shock,<b><i> so much so her hair started to turn white</i></b> at such an early age.</div>
How long after receipt of the telegram we are not sure but just one week before<br />
she was due to draw her Widows Pension she received a letter from dad telling<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
her that he had been captured and interned in a Pow camp in Salmona Italy</div>
Campo 78.....<b><i>.the shock completed the hair transition to white</i></b>.<br />

Dad was captured and taken to Tripoli and then from there to Campua.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Later he was removed to Salmona near Rome surrounded by high walls and mountains.</div>

P.O.W. Huts at Campo 78</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Life was definitely far from a bed of roses in Campo 78. The Red Cross parcels</div>
were not getting through so the POW's, including Dad, were very short on food. I remember<br />
dad telling me that some prisoners, including himself, killed cats if they could catch them<br />
and were even reduced to stewing paper and grass on numerous occasions!<br />
<br />
Camp internment was an horrific experience for everyone unfortunate enough to<br />
have been captured. When Dad refused to give up his wedding ring the guards broke his fingers with a rifle butt to remove it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One good thing was to come from this, Dad and Ted Baldock became his lifelong friends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They agreed that if they came through the war and hads sons they would name them after each other. Ted kept his part of the bargain and named his son Robert. However, Dad got overruled when Graham was born so he was not named Edward. Sad really, Edward Bedford would have had a ring to it!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They and several others got involved in constructing their very own football pitch as a way of keeping busy.</div>

Returning from War.</h2>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When Italy surrendered Dad and Ted were among the first to come home due to</div>
their being in the R.A.M.C. protected personnel and had charge of the<br />
repatriated wounded ex prisoners.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The main picture ( at the beginning of this blog) shows the train at Lisbon and</div>
women of the British colony there giving out packs of cigarettes to the<br />
soldiers. The ex prisoners, including dad and Ted, were transferred to a hospital<br />
ship homeward bound......the date was April 1943.<br />
