Cheap Holiday in Lloret !

Thanks to Maggie for sending this example of the prices of package holidays in Lloret. I'm not sure what year this brochure dates back to, both hotels are still here today, but the Montecristo is known by another name....answer, anyone ??

Photos from Angus

Thanks to Angus Thompson for sending his photos for the blog.

Rogers Photos

Gerrys Garden

I have received 2 photos from Chris today, the 1st one published today is taken in Gerry's garden, how many of you recognise the faces here ?

This is Chris's email .....

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

Jean In La Uva

The photos today from Jean feature 'La Uva' The first one taken in 1989 when Lynne was running the bar, after she left it was taken over by Soapy and Debbie and was given the Irish theme as seen in the 2nd photo.

Something different from Maggie today.....2 propaganda stickers, maybe collected by her and Colin on their way round the bars in Lloret while selling the badges they had made.
