Gerry's Bar.
These two were sent in by Frank, both are in Gerry's, in the top photo he is on the left at the bottom of the picture.
Behind the bar in Gerrys in the next photo Frank say's ''John Granger. Paul. Julie. I cant remember the Spanish guy he was a top guy wife and family sorry''
top pic is Fig ( Peter ) in Liverpool Kit he ran John Lennons when i was working there I also shared an apartment with him and Gogo 2 great guys .. max
Alright, 1978, Frankie huggs Emilio Bisbal ( the top spanish bloke) and not Paul. Next is Colin, then Paul Methews ( don't know how to spell it)with John Granger. And of course in front Julie.
that must be john "via" granger. we shared a room for a few weeks in 1977. conchitas pension, calle de mediodia. about three doors up from "la uva". jordi
frank. i remember when i moved in with via he had burns on his face. he might have been working in bonskys at that time, but when i asked what had happened he told me that he had been cooking and fell asleep. his face went onto the plancha like a burger. another character! sorry to here hes gone. jordi
i was there from 1974-80. pink panther first (became buccaneer) then moby dick,finally last 4 years in piccadilly working with willie (seven seas) mad saxon and russel (village inn) to name a few. originally from greenock but settled in yorkshire on leaving lloret. jordi.
I remember a few lads and a blond girl in Conchitas all from Greenock Do you remember drinking that crap from Luis next door and old Conchita telling Luis not to sell us anymore?What about the old dog who chased cars down the street.When the car stopped to bare right the dog never stopped and allway's ran into the back of the cars
frank.if your talking about 1977 then that was me and my mate tommy (sudge) sutherland. the blonde girl was his girlfriend at the time helen law. thats how i ended up sharing with via. the three of us came over on the clipper coach. la uva was great even if it took luis 45 mins to make a tuna bocc. was that crap moscatel? had to be better than eldorado,lanliq or four crown!! where did you work? jordi
I do not have a freckle on my LISTEN WHEN I TELL YOU THIS OLD CONCHITA Told me a face without a freckle is like a sky without a star thats the god's truth.Jordi i do remember you and Tommy and Helen By the way Pat Murppy(frank not frakies)is bald hahahah Iworked in Paddy's bar then the Mariner then yates then Gerry's ended up with Pat in Callela on in the beach boy's club at night .Day time on the beach party's.Do you remember Colin Okeefe ?
hiya pat. yes i did have black hair and some of it still is but the the grey is taking over. dont think it was long at that time but you may be thinking about my mate andy anderson from glasgow. he had longer hair (not any more) at that time. i think you were in western saloon/yates? andy had the west coast and i had the piccadilly. my name is george stewart (jordi) and that would have been 77/78. if i remember correctly you're young brother was working with you and your pub had just been refurbished. does any of this make sense to you? george.

HI, Sorry for adding my comment, but im trying to do a bit of digging up my past... Since I was born in 1972, my Dad (BOB)used to be the singer, pianist at Paddys Bar, later for years after then used to be the manager. He worked for Roger ( both yorkshire lads) Roger later known as Raja, he owned Tonchen, Bier Stube, Bier Keller etc.. My memory of Lloret is with my 2 brothers and sister, spending every year being sent off to stay with our Dad for 6 weeks of the year.. Ive been to Lloret near on 30 times now. Bob is over 70 now and im planning a little trip for him, to take him back to the old places and see the old people who might have been there between 1970 and 1985, he knew alot of people, and probably managed a lot of people in Paddys, then later called BIER HAUS. My name.. Paddy. call in coincidental, but yep.. thats me.
Hi Paddy I'm Jackie who runs this Lloret site, I've copied your comment to the latest piece of the site, maybe that way more people will see your comment and you may get a few replies from people who remember your Dad...hope you do, Good Luck. Let me know how you get on, when are you thinking of coming over?
Does anyone remember Paddy who's son placed the above comment? It would be nice if any of you could point him in the right direction to the people he knew when he worked here so he could take him and meet some of his old friends.
