2 nice emails!

I've received 2 very nice emails today, both from girls who worked in Lloret and have photos which they will be sending for the site. The first one came from Diane who worked here in the 80s, do any of you remember Diane? Here is a copy of her email-
Hi Jackie
I don't think we know each other. I was in Lloret de Mar from 1983- 1986/7 and was married to Paul Seager who has recently sent some photos in of our days in Sweeney's.
I feel compelled to contact you and congratulate you on what a great site you run. I really appreciate being able to log in from time to time and see what new photo's and news have been posted. I love the reunion pics, it is good to see some old faces. Thanks for taking the time to run this wonderful site. It brings a smile to my face every time I log on.
I have loads of photos (thanks to Ramon). It would be easy for me to scan some to you, in batches, if you are interested.
As well as working at Sweeney's, I also worked for Stuart of Nicky Tams in Music the disco downstairs, I had a ball down there. I remember one night when the DJ who was Russell's brother (Russell of Village Inn) was acting a bit weird over the mic and it transpired he was naked behind the podium!! He was absolutely plastered and decided to give the punters a treat with a streak across the dance floor..... wild times! I also worked for Stuart in a bar he had with Joyce near Pedro's but I cannot for the life of me think if it's name. I worked for a short time in Mobys but I don't think I have any photos from there.
I have fantastic memories of my time in Lloret, may be one day I'll make a reunion?
Thanks again Jackie

The second email came from Liz who was here in 1973. It's nice to know there are still new people finding the Old Stuff and that there is still a lot more photos out there. Thanks to both for getting in touch.
Liz's email -
Hi Jackie
Came upon your site by keying in pepe's ( making a photobook of our time there & travelling Europe afterwards) and found this site it's amazing seeing a couple of faces we knew when we both( my husband now) worked there in 1973 from April to September. John Swan from Captains Arms. Roy K. I'm Liz from Scotland worked in Mr Chips and Rosamar nightclub my husband Roy from Leicester in P.Ps and Coco's in the Rosamar hotel. There was wee Phil who nearly got his eye poked out at Coco's one night. That was the disco club with the big bird style cage for dancing in. Mick was there with Roy.Can send some photos if you like. Look forward to your reply if possible
Thanks
Liz

Canyelles Banner

I have recently had this image sent by an unknown fan of the 'Old Stuff' it looks like some sort of propaganda banner featuring an image of Canyelles Beach, I've no idea of the date...maybe 1960s, I did a bit of editing to the shape as the border was a bit tatty, it looks quite good now even though I do say it myself! 

Is there one for Lloret beach anywhere out there?

Carolines Photos

 Today we have a few more pics from Caroline, some of you out there may know Caroline's parents who still live here in Lloret, Eric and Margarita often seen in the Bar Maritim, behind Magic Park, and Barretina, and are friendly with Fiona.

Photos from Annette

Annette and I have been in contact quite a lot just recently, she was a good friend of Hammy's a few years ago and after seeing photos from his 50th birthday on the site she got in touch. She has some photos which she wanted Hammy to 'ok' before we published them. We had a bit of a laugh in Rabbie's yesterday with us sending messages back and forward between Hammy and Annette.
I wish you could have seen his face Annette he was looking very pleased with him self!

Photos from Mariano

We havent had any photos from Mariano for a while as he has been on holiday but now he is back and has sent these pics for us. Mariano lives in the Aragon region where he says "It is like living in hell this August is 43º through the day and 30º at night and nobody can sleep"

I must say we havent had those sort of temperatures in Lloret this August but it must go down as one of the hottest on record!

Rosamar - Annette, Sanda & Mariano

Many thanks to Graham for these photos which date back to the early 70s, this is the message from Graham.......

"Discovered your 'old stuff' site recently. Was in Lloret for four summers from 1970. Worked a couple of seasons, one year partly at PP's and Tempo, another all summer at New Cortijo and was a 'dosser' for the last two seasons.

Was in Palamos and Llafranc last month saw the signs to Lloret but resisted the urge, too many years have passed"
