MGB has been in the archives at chateau Kenn and has located a number of photos that he fondly remembers taking of JR or Rolly as he is often referred to by his Cashmores mates    


Starting off with this one - must say JR cuts a rather dashing figure in his fur lined coat and trilby

Thought this might be an appropriate place to post this althought it's not JR - just incase the family ever 'stumble' across this site


MGB tells me 'This handsome young man is non other than Richard J Rowland, son of "JR [RIP]" I think his first mention in the listings is as the Knockout winner in 1975 then again as match winner [Arley Rt. bank] on 20/8/77

It was a shame that the next time me and Dave saw this guy was at the good mans (JR's) funeral.'
