Gerry's Bar & La Uva

Sorry if I´m repeating myself here, but I'm not sure if I've published any of these photos before, I thought I had but can't find them anywhere on the site. The top one as everyone will recognise is in Gerry´s garden and the bottom one is taken in La Uva, thanks to Lynne [ex La Uva] for both photos.

El-Rancho1977

This is a photo I received today from Steve who comes from Germany, he is wanting to know if a re-union is being planned in Lloret this year. I have seen on the Message Board that some of you have been talking about a possible re-union. If there are any definate plans let me know any details and I'll write a piece about it if you like.

This is the email which came with Steve's photo....

hi jackie,

i enjoyed your website today about the "Lloret de Mar Old Stuff" and got excited when seeing photos of shuggy, desy, ginger joe, colin, linda and and...

i was part of a quite well known german bunch (gerd, mano, ...) and went to lloret from 1971 - 1979 on vacations and 1977 we spent 2 1/2 months there. as i was a student, it was possible in the semesters breaks.

so i added a photo (shoud be from september 1977) with rather bad quality and my former friends. you will see me in the right back with fair hair between colin
and walter coutts the indian, on the left you see gerd. also john mackenzie's head is viewable in the middle. in the same year gerd and i
travelled to schotland for the new year 1977/8 and stayed in colin's home - of couse we were in the houff!

if there is a reunion meeting planned, please give me a short mail and i would see, if i can join it. i'm working in the computer
business writing programs, and so a time off is not always possible.

i would like to hear from you ...


best wishes

steve

White Horse

Todays photo's feature the White Horse and the Bus Station. All 3 were sent in by Linda who worked in the White Horse back in the late 70s.

Duke of York Football 1978

Sorry for the delay with this latest set of photos, but I'm now back in Lloret after almost 3 months away. I'm just hoping I've missed the worst of the Costa Brava winter, judging by todays weather I've timed it right, there's hardly been a cloud in the sky all day!


Some great photos here from Shuggie, no need to ask for any names for the top one, he has given them all, also the year 1978 !
The bottom ones are again from the Duke of York 1976.

All these are from Diane......

Lots of faces to put names to with these photos from Diane.

Back to the 50's and 70's !

Photos from John Stanley and Aunty Jean today...
Back to 1978/79 in the Laurel & Hardy and Rob Roy below.
John and his family are now living in Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol. They have a great bar called 'Bar One' just 2 streets back from the Yaramar Hotel .... Call in and see them if your on holiday there!

Its not very often you see the beach in Lloret or Fenals looking so empty, only during the winter months these days !
But this is just how it was when Jean [Aunty Jean] and her husband Les first started coming to Lloret for their holidays back in 1958 !!

Three From Shuggie. 1977

I've received loads more photos from Shuggie, the first few of which are published below, with part of the email to correspond with the photos.
[Thanks again Shuggie!]

Duke of York 6

The Dukes team from 1977

The Londoner

The Londoner staff near the end of the season, hence the dress sense. Also the Londoner team, we played this game against a Spanish team, I think in Girona. I'm sure Hammy or Pat Murphy will remember. Highlight of the day was Hammy stealing the refs RED card when he dropped it and didn't know. Not like Hammy at all!!!

Thanks Jackie, the web site is a blast.

All the best

Shuggie

PS,

Jill,

Hope you like the photos and got the last lot.
