An email from Gillian Smith has revealed that the photograph is an Expanded Metal photo, probably a presentation night. On the front row first left is Alec Meredith, far right is Ron Wigglesworth (who was a member of HODA), the lady 4th from the right is Carol Jefferson and the man on the back row behind the lady in the centre (on her left hand side) is Tom Tynan. It was probably taken in the early to mid seventies.
