A message from Ricky..


This was written by a Dutch friend called Slik at 04.00 July 1989 on the steps of the Las Vegas disco in Blanes and it was inscribed on  a Marlboro packet.  I framed it and it was in the bar for years and I stll have it at home.  Ahhhh memories..........


There is a place you have to know to find,
There is a place that is one of a kind,
It is a bar in uptown Blanes and what they serve is joy,
It is a bar where a man can really be a boy,
Where friends are made by stepping on a foot,
Where when you feel shit you actually feel good,
Where sorrows are forgotten and hearts are broken,
And the international language of a smile is spoken,
Where a person can be himself without being considered a fool,
Where if you know how to be nice you are always cool,
The name of this place is Ricky´s Bar
But don´t ever go there if you´re not a least bit bizarre!!

Ricky in Blanes has taken the sad step and decided to close his bar in Blanes....Heres a personal message from Ricky which he recently placed on his website-

AS OF EASTER THIS YEAR ,RICKY´S WILL BE CLOSING IT´S DOORS  AS I AM LEAVING THE BAR AFTER 25 YEARS.
THIS IS A PERSONAL DECISION AND I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THE SUPPORT AND FABULOUS  TIMES I HAVE HAD IN THE BAR DURING THIS TIME.
I  WILL BE STAYING IN BLANES BUT AFTER WORKING NEARLY EVERY NIGHT FOR ALL THOSE  YEARS , I DON´T WANT TO LEAVE THE BAR IN A COFFIN AS I AM SURE MOST OF YOU WILL APPRECIATE.
LIFE GOES ON AND LASTLY A BIG THANK YOU TO MARGARET FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME....

Ricky's Bar


Only one photo today which I have taken from Ricky's Bar web site.

I have a problem with my computer which I hope to get sorted shortly, so cant get to the photos which you have all sent in.
I just hope that I've not lost everything, fingers crossed all will be ok in a day or so.

Thanks to Ricky in Blanes for granting me the use of his photos from the Lloret section of his web site, here is the link for his site Ricky's Bar.
If you go to the Lloret link on the site you'll find loads of photos from the years 1978 - 86.
