RIP Gerry..

I have a few more photos of Gerry, a very good friend who we all lost last night. He is now once again with Julie, who he missed terribly after her sudden death. We all send our condolences to Simon and all other members of the family.

A few of you have already sent in your condolences, and have said what fond memories you have. Gerry loved to go watch Lloret FC with all the 'Hooligans' at home and away whenever worked permitted. He also was a Barcelona fan and liked to go to the local Bowling alley...even though his style was likened to a ballerina!

Many thanks to Angie for sending these great photos of just a few of the happier times in Gerry's life.

A Sad Day in Lloret

Gerry from Bonsky Bar in Lloret sadly died last night after quite a long illness.

Thanks to Linda for sending todays photos for the blog...She tells us when and where they are from....

''Jackie,
Sent you 4 photos you may like to add to the Blog. The first is when I worked in the Piccadilly with George Stewart, the second is the Moby Dick before it was a bar, the third is in the Moby Dick in 1979 - Colin on the right was the manager and I am next to him. The fourth is in the Duke of York, let's see who remembers the faces. I'm Linda by the way (better known as Linda from Manchester).

Be good to see them on the Blog.
Thanks Linda.''

Beach Party

Another selection from John Stanley, one from the Beach Party. The next one was it Christmas or some other celebration?

The last one a party of a different kind, which I believe was the opening night of Tropicana.
