Workers from Lloret de Mar on holiday!

 Thanks to Kevin for sending in some photos unlike any others we've had before - and that is the Lloret workers on their end of season holiday at Playa De Touro in the Canaries. Kevin says that Lloret de Mar workers used to meet up with other workers from places such as Benidorm etc, so can anyone tell us who is on theses pics from the years 1974-76?

Eddies photos

Two photos from the mid 70s which were sent in by Eddie who worked in the OK Coral and West Coast around 1975.

Eddie and Burge in the Quo routine

More photos from Brian

We go back to 1980 with 3more pics from Brian.

Brian worked at Topo 't' Top in 1980 and now has a bar down on the Costa del Sol in Nerja.

Mariano's photos

Today 3 of Marianos photos feature the Little Barrel from the 70s along with one from the Revolution. Who is in the photos, can anyone help with the names?

The Revolution as it was in the 70s, its still going strong today with exactly the same logo, but these days looking much brighter - its painted bright orange!

I've just been asked by Jackie Milroy if I could put a piece on the 'Old Stuff' as you may have heard, Bravehearts has recently become vacant, so if anyone out there is interested in running your own bar in Lloret or maybe relocating from another bar, here are the details -

Photos from Kevin

Thanks to Kevin Speak for sending a fantastic selection of photos from the 70s, if anyone out there remembers Kevin I'm sure he'd love to hear from you! here is a note from Kevin -
"I worked at both Moby Dicks and The Pink Panther during different seasons from 1974 to 76, it’s been a really nice trip for me down memory lane to see so many of the old workers I once called my friends some of which as the season came to an end we would then travel down to Grand Canaria and hang out at the Guantanamo campground at a beach called La Playa de Touro"

Just look at the the price of the meal in the above photo 95pts!!

After all the bars and cafes in Lloret that used to do Sunday lunch or a typical cooked breakfast, just now its very hard to find a place where you can get such a meal.... In fact just now you cant, everywhere is shut.
The White Horse and Bravehearts have sadly closed down and even El Torito which hasn't closed for years are having a long winter break. There wont be many bars left soon!
