Once again, we pose a query and get an almost immediate response. A couple of months ago we asked for information about the local 1960s group which we thought was called "Bodfinks". We received information about the band which, it turns out, was actually called "Bogfinks".

The group members have been identified:
- The lad with the glasses on the right is Ray Elrick - sometimes known as Fred because of a passing resemblance to Freddy Garrity of Freddie and the Dreamers.
- Drummer may be Ossie Garvey from Steeton.
- Middle: David Barret from Crosshills, who was known as Batman.
- Far left on guitar may be Brian Wakefield, who came from Farnhill.
It appears that the group also had a business card:
Is there anyone out there who can tell us more about Bogfinks ?. If so please email history@farnhill.co.uk.
