Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr
All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.
Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.
It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.
The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.
Thank you though for all the memories
Phil Sumbler

They were definitely one of my elder sister's faves in mid-60s so I was quite familiar with their stuff from a relatively early age.

Spencer was a Gors Avenue boy, his dad worked for the GPO on Heol y Gors.
Great memories as a teenager living in Townhill in the 1960's, when my mate knocked my door and said we had to run down the Gors because Spencer Davis was home. When we got down there, sitting on the wall was Spencer Davis, Stevie and Muff Winwood. I was totally gobsmacked to see these 3 sitting there, but they were total gents and talked to us youngsters for ages.
As I said, great memories.
RIP Spencer. YJB.

Less than 8 years after Spencer was born, Peter Ham was born just up the road in Gwent Gardens (Keyhole).
Two Swansea lads who became famous, but both tucked up by the music industry, one to die tragically.
Peter (Piggy) lived just around the corner from where I live, and his first port of call when he came home for a visit, was a pint in the Gors Inn. Another lovely guy taken too soon!!!
