wiga Group: Members Posts: 2113 Joined: Sep. 2008 Posted: June 17 2010, 13:18 The group photo brings back memories. I used to study it for ages. Still want to know who the two women on the left hand side are - they don't get a mention, or are they part of The Hereford City Band. They're not top row though. And who were the Griffiths children and where are they now? -------------- Barn's burnt down - now I can see the moon. Back to top

The Caveman Group: Members Posts: 2178 Joined: Jan. 2008 Posted: June 18 2010, 04:34 The Griffiths kids were Martin Griffiths' children from Penrhos Court were Mike used to jam with Les Penning.They're the Penrhos kids singing on On Horseback.I think Martin still owns Penrhos.I don't know what happened to the kids but i'm sure they must be mortally embarrased by the phot! As for the other 2 ladies i've ofter wondered the same thing. -------------- THE COMING OF THE GREAT WHITE HANDKERCHEIF IS NIGH. Back to top

She had a lot more hair and fuller face. The Hereford City Band are the ones in black suits (plus pink top). I guess this is taken around July 1975 before the tape troubles became a real problem and Paddy Moloney was brought in. Back to top

zinc Group: Members Posts: 99 Joined: Sep. 2000 Posted: June 21 2010, 09:00 Martin and Daphne still indeed own and run Penrhos Court. It used to be a hotel but these days focusses more on residential courses about organic food and weddings etc- see www.penrhos.co.uk I recommend it to anyone who wants some where a little different to get married as I did 2 years ago- it was totally magical and Martin and Daphne could not have done more for us if they tried. A truly amazing day- before we got married in the morning of our wedding we had time to walk along Hergest Ridge. The food in the Great Hall was wonderful and the party in the evening fantastic. Martin lit a load of torches everywhere as it got dark which lit up Penrhos and made ot look even more beautiful. We had drinks by the big open fire where Mike talks about playing stuff with Les Penning. The next morning we woke up at Penrhos to the site of snow falling- its was early April but somehow really fitting. Pay a visit if you can-its definately worth it. Zinc         Back to top
