Shorny's Photos

 Earlier this year Shorny sent in a great selection of pics from various bars around Lloret, heres a few more more from his collection...this time from Gerry's Bar. Which so happens that this week end is full of Norwegians here for the Barcelona Formula 1, if previous years are anything to go by they wont even go, they buy their tickets and end up watching it in the bar!!

Aunty Jeans Pictures

 Here we have a few photos from Aunty Jean, which feature both her and her husband Les back in their early holidays in Lloret 1958-59. I'm sure they must have been the first holiday makers to venture as far as Boadella beach in those days!

Early Days in Spain!

The BBC are making another programme about the early days of holidays abroad and I'm sure that some of you may be able to help. Please read the message below-
Hello,
My name is Vicky and I work for the BBC. I am working on a documentary for bbc4 about the history of the British holiday and I am looking for some people who went on some of the early spanish package holidays to share their memories with us - first taste of foreign food, lots of wine, never felt so much sun on their faces, those kind of things.
can anyone help?

We are looking to film on 14-15-16 May in the London area so it's not much time to find someone.
I would be grateful for any help you can offer, my details are below
