capturing everything great about Wales
To colliers, "Tools on the Bar" meant that another day's underground toil was over. Their tools were locked onto a metal bar ready for the next working day.

Ray to many, Grav to others - a giant of Mynydd-y-Garreg, Llanelli, Wales and the British Lions - but most of all, a devoted family man to his wife Mari and daughters Manon and Gwenan. Roedd Grav yn adnabyddus drwy'r byd fel "y cawr o Lanelli". Er yn hynod o falch o'i lwyddiant ar y maes rygbi dros Lanelli, Cymru a'r Llewod, ei deulu yn Mynydd-y-Garreg, sef ei wraig Mari a'i ddwy ferch Manon a Gwenan oedd yn dod gyntaf ym mywyd Grav.
