Stand by your Beds,The Life and Times of P.Drummond.
Six in the morning you hear the church bell,
Along came Pop Steele to open our cell,
Pull back the blanket and out came the smell,
There's nothing like Macandrew in Dickies hotel

My recolection of the song is........
There is a mouldy dump down goldings way,
Where we got bread and cheese ten times a day,
Eggs and bacon we did'nt see, we got sawdust in our tea,
and we are gradualy,...... Fading away, Fading away, Fading....away.....Fading....I ALSO REMEMBER.....At six in the morning we hear the church bell, along came skip culver to open our Cell, He opened the windows and empties the po, it's back to the work shops we goldings boys go.

JOHANNA.... I have a copy of "Childhood Memories" which is a Photographic history of Dr Barnardo's homes but I believe the book is now out of print.
The only photo I can find relating to the Birmingham area is "Druids Heath" Nr Walsall which opened in 1939.
Could I suggest you contact Martine King, who is our Archives Manager at Barnardo's HQ in Barkingside who may be able to help. martine.king@barnardos.org.uk
I hope this is of some help to you.

there is a mouldy dump down goldings lane where we get mouldy grub that gives us pain. Eggs and bacon we dont see, we get brickdust in our tea. We are gradually fading away!

Where can I find photographs of Dr Barnardos home in Birmingham, England, early 1900's. As I am researching my family history and believe some of my ancestors were inmates there, I am so interested to see photographs. Are there any inmate lists available? Many thanks
