1960's OOs

This was Ms Griffiths' class of 10 and 11 year olds and they are standing in front of the Guiness clock which Robin says was clearly the most interesting part of the trip!

Robin was taking the photo and is hazy on the identity of the subjects, but he suspects they include John Hopkins, Brian Pugh, Peter Conde, Michael Robinson (now sadly deceased) and Graham Honeyman.
