Bampton Morris Dancers: Orbituary for Colin Bathe and David John Titchener
Article written by Keith Chandler about these two Morris Men.
Colin and ‘Curly’ (D.J. Titchener) came over to Bampton quite by accident, knowing nothing about its Morris dance tradition. They went into The Jubilee and started chatting to landlord Reg Pratley, telling him what they were interested in. Within a few minutes he was singing to them, mainly snatches, one being ‘Butter and Cheese and All’. He then produced sheets on which the words were written: Peter Kennedy had given them to him! Reg took them across to the Eagle, where Frank Purslow and Francis Shergold used to play in the bar.

Miss Dor Thomson talking to Norman Gregory. 1985
Part of Terry Crowley's memories of people who took an active part in the life of Bampton
Miss Dorothy (Dor) Graeme Thomson lived in Cheyne Lane. She ran an excellent organic vegetable garden after the war when she and Kate Wylie lived in Beam Cottage (it was not surrounded by houses then). She was a county councillor, president of the West Oxfordshire Arts Association and chairman of school governors. She is talking with Norman Gregory who married Merle Hobbs who taught several generations of children in Bampton. They moved to Henley-in-Arden. Norman was a churchwarden.
