Michelle's Album
Thanks to Michelle for these photos she recently sent in for the blog, I wonder how she is coping in Valencia with this hot spell we are now having in Spain. Temperatures in Lloret have been higher than ever just lately. It was 31º down in Lloret at 10am yesterday morning, I then heard that a couple of hours later it was 37º in Fenals and in Tordera it was 42º ... with no sign of it cooling down yet!

"I have just seen Sooty's photo outside the cerdana in paris square ( or used to be ) and had to send you one that was taken inside on the same day see if anyone recognizes the two faces (t'shirt will probably be a dead give away ). The smaller photo is of the londoner staff circa 1976 ish"

Photos from 1984 & 89
Here we have more photos from Tony, the top one is from the year 1989.
The last two were both taken in the same year 1984, with the one below taken outside the Texas Saloon.
The last photo was to celebrate Davey McGuigans birthday and I believe was taken at Ramons??
I met Davey who was in Lloret along with his old friend Steve...they caught up with each other through the Old Stuff site after loosing contact years ago, which was good news!
I have now received quite a few more photos after my 'begging letter' the other day, thanks to all who sent more in. I'll get round to using them shortly but I still do have a few of your older ones yet to publish.

Photos From Tony & Steve.
The top two photos were brought over by Tony when he came on a quick visit to Lloret a few weeks ago. Tony's 1st one as you can see from the T shirts is Rockerfellers and info he gave for the 2nd one is - Aussie Steve, two Pauls from Bradford taken in Yates 1985.
The last of todays photos was sent in by Steve and is from 1977. Here is what Steve said in his email...
"I worked in Lloret '75 and 76, Yates, Less Brasses (now a Japanese restaurant) Paddy's bar, Bier Keller and The Yellow Submarine (that's where the photo was taken) My sister, Caroline, also worked there at the same time, printing T shirts for Ted (Moby Dick). My parents now live there and we are often over for short breaks, often meeting in the Barratina's and having a chin wag with Fiona"

Then yesterday (Saturday) was a massive BBQ out in the garden. All the meat was cooked by the local Argentinean lads who did a great job, and made sure that everyone was kept well supplied with food and drinks!
We all had a fantastic day out... thanks to everyone who helped out!

Mr T's Photos.
Alan has kindly lent some of his photos for the blog. The top one is from 1982, but which bar is it?
The bottom one was taken in Churchills in 1981.
Could that be Garry from the Sportsman sticking his head in the photo on the right?

A New Photo from Shuggy!
Thanks to Shuggy for his latest photo showing him outside the Barretina in 1978 with Rosa Marie, who I believe is the daughter of the former owner. He wants to know if anyone knows of her whereabouts now... is she still in Lloret?
