New Comments on Old Stuff

We sometimes get comments added to the Old Stuff photos which have been on the site for several months so they may not always be seen if regular readers dont go back over the older pages. So I've added a new feature which should show the last 10 comments placed on the blog, scroll down the page to find it in the side column then click on the link for the post. Thanks to Jill for coming up with the idea and asking if it would be possible to implement it on the site.

Photos from the "Vicar"

 Thanks to Brian for getting in touch and sending several of his photos for the Old Stuff site, below you can read a copy of his email...

Nice site of the old times in Lloret.

I'm Brian Murray (most people know me as "the Vicar") my name in Lloret.

I worked there fm 1979 till 1983 in Bar Gloria.

Here attached is one of the many foto's i have, made by Ramon.

I was one of his best customers.

In the foto you see Neil and Joan fm Sunderland, still together.

Still in contact with them. I live in Holland now, and still in kontakt with "dutch Vera" (fm the Zoo)

Neil worked in the Texas Burger and Joan was a babysitter.

And the other man in the foto we all know as Franky.
