Going to have to say guess the year for now in case I get it wrong ! A young Trevor Gallienne, even younger Paul Dyer, Rodney Smith Jnr. (Layabouts) and Tony Brassel (Giants) Taken at the one time Bastion of Guernsey Bar Billiards L'auberge Divette This was probably an Islands singles semi final line up.

What year was that ? I used to work at The Blue Horizon Hotel just down the road from L,auberge Divette in the summer of 1984 . That pub was our little hang out . Is it still open ?

It is now a food/bistro bar. Used to be a great locals pub when Dave Lane was landlord. Paul Dyer recently worked there when they extended it.
The Bar Billiards team still survives as does the Euchre Team, playing from different venues of course. Terry Girard plays for both teams !

We also used to go that bit further and drink in the non residents bar at the Idlerocks Hotel . Is that still open ?

Finally found my old records.
The pictures are from the 1994/1995 season.
Trevor was the Island champion, not sure who he beat in the final.
Beck & Chapple won the pairs.
