Pink Maria!

After reading the hilarious tales of 'Picasso's' on the Message board here is a reminder of another popular workers abode.
Just down the road from La Uva where this was taken, was Pink Maria's. I never stayed there but I'm sure there's a few tales out there from the people who did ?
There she is far left on the first photo, which Lynne from La Uva kindly brought over this week along with a few more which I'll be putting on the blog shortly.

The next one is again is from Jean's collection, taken on Pink Maria's roof, where I believe you could get your hair cut and sleep at a reduced rate if the rooms were full !

Another photo from John McSwan, showing everyone having a good knees up at Rabbies, who's the one in the middle who lifted her knees up too much ?

Club 1900

Black & White days again with another of Omelete's photos from the 1900 Club in 1972, maybe a bit too far back for some to remember.

Then another photo from Jean the year she gave for this photo is 1986 and taken in Beachboys, with her very good friend Andy... he must be coz he's on nearly every photo she gave me!!
(Sorry Andy, but its true !)

Bumpers

'Omelete' can be seen in the top photo hanging upside down from the stairs!
Frank (seen below on the far right) sent me the other photo from 1984, which was taken in Bumpers.

Maxims

I received this photo from Gary McGowan earlier today, not only with the names of the people on the photo, but also the country from which they came!
He also put in a few kind words about the site which you can read in the comments below.

''I have attached a photo of the Maxim prop team 1982 (with 2 interlopers form Amsterdam disco) I hope you will consider posting it. The people are: Backrow: Peter (lange benen – from Holland), Malc Coombs (Maxim’s prop manager - Coventry), Ruben (Argentina), Kevan (Amsterdam disco - UK)Crouching: Knocker (Amsterdam Prop manager - UK)Front row: Doris (Germany), Brigitta (Germany), Yours truly (Coventry)On the floor: Gerry (Holland)''

Below we have another photo of the staff from Texas, in what looks like a successful darts match!

Back to the 80s ...

With these two photos we go back to the 80s, thanks again to Jean.
Nicky Tams above and below is what looks like a ladies night out, where a couple of the boys have sneaked in !

Black & White Days !

Both photos from the days of B& W film today, going back to 1973 !
John McSwans photo (above) from the Captains Arms, and Angie's photo below was taken outside Moef Ga Ga. In the photo with her is David Pooley who she said called into Gerry's Bar this summer to say ''hello''. He now lives in Norway and runs an animal rescue centre. Here is a link for the centre ...

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''
