Roger is a roofer I believe, although I've yet to meet him.

They all live on or around the cross.

Hi Bowls, yes I think it was, then it moved to The Sheffield Arms, then to The Ball Inn and one was held at the 

   British Legion Club in Chapletown.

   If you check on 'facebook',   look for 'I'm from Grimesthorpe, and proud of it' there's talk of another reunion

at the Wincobank Hotel, on Newman Road.

The first Sheffield Forum reunion was held in September 2006 in the Sheffield Arms there were four present .

Your goodself George,John Holbrook,the late Ralph Aspinall and me. We then moved to the Ball and they petered out around 2012/2013.

Hope you are keeping well George.
