Jet - Dolphin Service Station, Cockfosters Road, Barnet mid 1990's

So this is a bit different! Some Gladiators seem to have taken centre stage with a Jet garage as their backdrop. Not sure what the occasion is but it's an old Eastern Counties Press photo so almost certainly is Norwich. From left to right we have Michael Wilson (Saracen) , Diane Youdale (Jet) and Mark Griffin (Trojan). I'm guessing that they chose a Jet garage because the lady is Jet! I have to thank my friend Jez for telling me who they were - I had no idea. Update - turns out it's nowhere near Norwich or Norfolk but Barnet in North London! The garage is today a BP branded site but was branded Jet up to around 2010. Seen here as BP in 2018 www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6523533,-0.1504431,3a,75y,124.2... and here in 2009 still branded as Jet www.google.co.uk/maps/@51.6523721,-0.1504605,3a,75y,124.2...
