Bob Burdett: Norwood area post WW2

Posted on: Mon 24 Sep 2018

Retired cabinetmaker Bob Burdett was born during World War 2 and grew up in the Norwood area.  They were the days before it became the trendy suburb it is now. Bob gives a lovely look into what life was like in those carefree days of lots of jobs for all, no computers and no mobile phones.
