Jean died several years ago, and I'm not sure where John is now, but I have fond memories of the Sportsman. In fact is was John who drove my ex to the church when he missed his train to our wedding- come to think of it, maybe he shouldn't have bothered!

 

John sadly died a few years ago now. I used to drink with him occassionally in the Park Hotel, Hillsborough.

Hi Pete i know Garth and the late Wendy, we had a pub in Brinsworth which they once ran, Wendy was one of the nicest women you could meet and Garth was such a character, you could not go home he would keep you entertained all day.
