I’m thinking that the first photo must be Pete how he is today, but I’m sure some of you will recognise him in the photos along with a few of the other workers!
Thanks to Garry Pritchard for send me this photo this morning, it dates back to the 90s…
L-R Garry, Wilma & Tommy Stone!
Many thanks to Jessica for sending me her late fathers photos which she has only just come across. His name was Fred Hall but was sometimes known as Louis, Does anyone remember him…see the first photo.
The photos are taken in the Duke Of York (1971) so it’s possible that he was working there at that time.
Many thanks to William for posting this bullfight poster on the Facebook page, it dates back to 1976.
Williams details about the poster….A few months ago, my Mother gave me a couple of boxes with pictures from our times in Europe. When I first saw this one, I thought it was from our time at Zaragoza in the early 60's but upon closer inspection I found it to have been from Lloret De Mar. We were there the last two weeks in July of 1976.
Many thanks to Ray Morris for another one of his memorable stories from the days he worked in Lloret and Tossa de Mar. Ray is now living in Australia but it seems that his days of working in Spain are never far from his mind! ……..
I spent several hours watching footage of Tossa and Lloret on You Tube and it left me feeling like I had actually travelled there. In the footage of Lloret it looked like they had demolished most of the buildings and built a new town on the site. I got a kick out of seeing the old town hall building where I spent two hours in the jail looking out the window at people frolicing on the beach. Otherwise it was a large bustling city that I had never seen before.
