Greaves of Sheffield

Recommended Posts

I remember you. I moved to Little London Road, left and then came back to Sidney Street part-time years later. Worked with Brian Grocutt again about eight years ago at Sheffield Rebuild when I was receptionist and he was woodwork tutor

About 5 ft tall, knocked around with Lynn Kynoch and Elaine Johnson, bleached my hair blonde at front (well my cousin did, she's hairdresser) and then coloured the blonde bit shocking pink. These days it's all blonde, naturally:hihi::hihi::hihi:

Yes, but it was a bit turbulent in the end. Martin was a bit volatile but I think Elaine used to wind him up. Graham Dawson got sacked by Les Grocutt and then I believe nutted him but I was at Little London then

Martin Wheatcroft was volatile....he could turn in a flash...I saw him roughly early 90's driving for one of the breweries. He worked at Greaves in the spray shop with Mad Jack and Pete. They were all a bit barmy, it must have been the cellulose!

My Mum, Ann Horsfield, worked at Greaves in the offices during the 1980's. A few of the names popping up on here are echoing names my Mum used to mention.
