Photos from Shorny aka 'Spock'
Thanks to Shorny for getting in touch again and passing on a great selection of his photos and also for including info for each one.
In the first photo below from the Britannia Snorny says that this is the night they got arrested..but doesn't say why!
Another from the Britannia 1977 |
Some of Shorny's photos were water damaged but I've been able to salvage them all with a bit of cropping and re-touching, so apologies for the one above which Shorny thinks is Barry wearing Scotty's kilt and dancing on his bed!

Colin Stamp's Photos
Here we have a few more photos from Colin, this time a great selection from Popeye's in Fenals which I believe are the very first ones from there. Not sure of the year for these maybe late 90s?
Victor and his biker friends. |
I recognise Linda stood on the terrace between the sun brollies

Photos from Sue vale
Today we have a few more photos from Sue's collection, I've no idea what's happening in the top photo with Max, maybe you could tell us Max?
In the photo above from 1971 are Sue & Jim Vale with friends....is that Alan Tolland middle?

Photos from Pat Bourke
A new batch of photos has been sent in by Pat who worked here in Lloret back in the early 70s,
Pat says......
''I was quite amazed to find your blog on the internet. My friend Diane and I worked in Lloret for two season, first at the La Cala, back when we had go-go dancers and the following year at Maxims and the 1900. We were both from Liverpool and stayed the first year in a pension on Calle Mediodia, just up the road from the Captains Arms. The following year we shared an apartment with Jane Legg from the smoke and George (another scouser). Diane passed away last year in Stoke on Trent''
When I replied to Pat to thank her for the photos I asked how she had come across the 'Old Stuff' this is her reply to me.........
''Actually my husband and I were watching TV when an ad for Republic of Doyle came on and one of the main characters is called Malachi. I had a flash back to Anne and Malachi and I googled Malachi Lloret de Mar and low and behold there you were .What about Cockney Big Pat Sullivan; Geordie Pat and also Billy Williams are any of them still in touch?''

She also asked me about Steve and Claire Watson and also Malachi and his first wife Anne, so she now knows that Claire and Anne have since passed away.

Photos from Colin Stamp
Sharon & friends |
Thanks to Colin for loaning me a box full of his photos from 'Colins Cottage' days, I've been very busy during the last few days sorting and scanning hundreds of his photos and I'm slowly but surely getting through them all.
Here are the first ones....maybe you'll remember a few familiar faces!
At the front on the right is Diane and I think Richie is at the back - both still enjoying life in Lloret. |
Justin Dee, but who is the lady sat down? she doesn't look too impressed! |
