Two More From Jean

Todays photos come from Jean again...

I think Jean had her photo taken with just about everyone in Lloret, she still carries her camera everywhere she goes!

Deleted Post

Sorry to all those who took the time to place their comments on the 'Plans for the Reunion' post, but after some of the comments turned nasty I thought the best thing was to remove the piece completely.

It seems that after Andy and Ricky tried to get a plan worked out, they cant please everyone. I should think that everyone who is attending must now know where and when to meet.

Thanks to all who placed comments on the deleted post. We even had the 1st comment from Aunty Jean who has sent in so many photos and hasnt even got her own computer to see them on the site unless she goes to the library or a friends house!

Its such a shame that comments such as that were lost because of the odd one or two who seem to want to spoil other peoples enjoyment...

Three From Jean.

Back to Jeans album today with 3 photos from the 90s.

Rogers Photos.

Todays photos come from Roger's collection again. Looks like there was a birthday celebration happening in the top photo....wonder who ended up wearing the cake!

Lloret de Mar Old Stuff News

I just thought you would all like to know that the blog has today just reached 200,000 hits since the day it started !

These figures are only for the blog and nothing to do with the message board that is a completely different site.

The first post was published on 19th June 2008, and there were just 38 viewers on that day, I even thought that was brilliant that so many found it on the first day. We now seem to get on average 500 hits per day.

Does anyone have a clue who it could have been?........Thanks to whoever it was anyway !!

Dear Jackie,

By chance last night I saw your web site and was blown away by all the wonderful pictures you've got together over the last couple of years.


My name is Chris Hellens, I worked at Topo T Top as a DJ from 1976 - 1979

My managers in 1976 were Lenny Merson and Cyril Sheehan who still works at the Zoo in Lloret.

I would be grateful if you get any correspondence or photo's of the Topo's boys, please pass them on.

Sorry to here about Gerry.

Great times sadly missed.

Very best regards,

Chris Hellens
