Reunion Photos

With the planned reunion only a day or so away now, here are some photos from the last one.
Ian Anderson kindly sent these in a few days ago....Thanks Ian!

Another one from Sue

I think this maybe the photo you were talking about Loretta ?

Sue's Photos

Thanks to Sue for all the photos she has recently sent for the blog.

Unfortunately she can't be in Lloret for the reunion, but I'll be putting loads of pictures on the site especially for all those who can't make it.

Loretta's Photos

Many thanks to Loretta (middle of the top photo) for sending a few of her photos for the 'Old Stuff'
Here's a short message from her email.....

"I look at your web site regulary and often see faces I remember. Hope you receive these photos ok, unfortunately I dont remember all the names, but maybe some of the people in them will recognise themselves and get in touch with you!

I hope that the photos will bring back good memories for anyone viewing them"

Photos from Roger.

For todays Old Stuff photos I've gone back to Rogers album, which I've not used for a while.
It looks as thought there's a fancy dress theme night going on in two of the pics...or did they always dress like that??

Ian Anderson's Photos

Thanks to Ian for todays photos.....who did the car belong to?

Flights are back on !

Latest news on the flight disruption owing to the Icelandic volcano is that all airports are now opening....Panic over !

Quiz Time!

These two photos were given to me by Kenny (top pic on the left) taken in Al Capones 1982.
He is now working with Mick (bottom pic on the left) no prizes again, but can any of you tell me what they now do for a living? They both have homes in Lloret.
...........Albie & Carol....keep quiet!!

Thanks for the photos Kenny!

Reunion and the flight situation...

I've just received 2 messages from Sue & Agnes today asking about the flight disruption and the reunion, I cant answer this myself.... it sounds as though it would have to be re-arranged for a later date if the flights are not back to normal?

Hi Jackie,

Its sue again, just wondering if there is a back up plan if people cant get to the reunion because of the flights, hopefully it will be sorted, but just incase.

Thanks for putting my photos on, you have done a really good job setting it up, i go on nearly every day.

Best wishes

sue

Hi Jackie, I don't know if anyone has spoke to you about this...but personally I am getting very nervous about the whole thing...what will happen if this bloody thing continues...like everyone I have been looking forward to this for almost a year now..and can;t believe how inconsiderate that volcano has been. Any ideas as to what we will do?? As I assume that the majority of those coming will be flying from UK. Hopefully it will all be resolved by next week. Lots of love A. x x x

Just lately I seem to be getting new photos sent everyday, so I just want to thank everyone for still searching through their old snapshots and taking the time to send them through I really appreciate everyone one I'm sent.
If you have recently sent photos and you dont see them straight away please dont think I'm not going to use them. They are all here, and you will see them on the site sooner or later!!
I'll always try to reply straight away when I receive photos just to let you know they came through to me ok.......Thanks to you all.......Jackie

Photos from Dave Mcguigan and Mick Fitsall

This first photo is from Mick who has sent in some prop stuff from the Romance Disco. His first from that collection is what looks like a poster for the Romance Disneyland Party '83. A great photo Mick, I've also put it on my new Lloret site....you can see the page HERE

Many thanks to Dave McGuigan for todays Old Stuff photos, the first was taken in Laural & Hardy 1981, and Dave is asking if any one knows the whereabouts of Geoff who is in the photo?
He also gave the name of the person in the 2nd pic....anyone recognise him?

Tobacco Prices

I've picked up the latest price list for cigs and tobacco and thought it may be of interest to those visiting Lloret for the reunion, it might help you to budget for your stay if you are taking cigs for yourself or friends at home. The tobacconist in Fenals lets you pay by card if you show your passport, I dont think all tobacconists allow this.
Latest Prices July 25th 2012

Dianne & Matilda !

Thanks to Dianne for the recent comment about the new Lloret website, and also for sending this photo of herself on her moped....which she called Matilda!


Here's Dianne on another bike which she says was Colins, I think that would be Colin from Colins Cabin.

Ian Anderson's Photos......

Thanks to Ian for todays 'Old Stuff Pics' ......Bet you thought I'd lost them Ian !

Here's a little bit about Ian, he says he worked everywhere in Lloret from 1974 - 1985, and describes his time here as "Best years of my life" His brother Andy was here 1974 -1982 , he worked for Ted for 8yrs.
Ian and his brother are together in the first photo, (Ian is the one on the left) taken in the Pink Panther 1974.

Then goes on to say...."first of all youvé done 1 helluva job with this site...i congratulate u and thank u...i have loads of foto's from all the years i worked in lloret"

Malc singing allegedly! Dave himself, Rudy, Sniff and Mickey.

Does anyone know this clown ??

I've taken his name off the form, but a clue is in the job title and Bar !!

No prizes for the right answer.....Sorry !!

Zoo Bar Lloret de Mar

Out with the Old and in with the new..........Just for today that is !

Thanks to Mick for sending this YouTube clip featuring Cyril in the Zoo bar.

I have received an email from Mick asking if I knew how Sean died, as I didn't know Sean personally is there someone out there who could possibly give him anymore details?

Micks email...

Hi Jackie,
i was just looking at the photo of sean, looked at the comments and saw that little max had posted about sean posing for raimon in the studio in the sky. i knew that raimon had died, but never had an inkling that sean was dead, what a shocker, i knew him in the 80's, such a nice man, would do anyhing for you
do you know any details of his death? how he died, his age, anything? any info. would be greatly appreciated.
I will ask cyril but i don't know when i'll be in touch, might be ages.
thanks very much.
mick fitsall.
