Jenni Baynton of Middlesex and Adrian Robinson of Lancashire.
Rockin’ John Cron adds “A link to Jenni Bayton can be found on the Radio London website under "Jenni Bayton Memorial". Also listed was "Adrian Robinson". His name was Brian Robinson and he was a member of the North of England Repair Group and came to the meetings in Leeds with his mate, Carl Schofield. They travelled from Preston for every meeting. Brian wasn't a well lad at the best of times and suffered from heart problems.”
Thanks John, Ed.
Left is the redressed Teddy guarding the bridge. As well as knitting for the teddy we’re told that, much missed, Jenny Knight kept many a DJ warm through long winter nights by knitting for them on the Ross Revenge when at sea.
Thanks to Brian Nichols

“Chris Cooper”, Caroline December 1989 to January 1990 ( for a mere three weeks we are told ) sneaks back into familiar studio one on the Ross Revenge. Mind you even this one has a PC
