It pays to think ahead.
Basic Plan #1 - Friday - Reconnaissance is key
Food
Meat and plenty of it. I"m think of a restaurant I"ve heard of (doing some research) called Tobago. A steakhouse I"m advised (at least by TripAdvisor).
Nothing like a good stuffed stomach to set you up for a night"s...ahem...entertainment. About a 10-15 minute walk (I think) from the Excelsior at Josep Togores, 10, 17310 Lloret de Mar, Spain for them"s that might want to map it.
It"s also pretty central for Lloret for those who aren"t at the "APAT Excelsior Crash Pad".
Drink
A short (I sincerely hope) waddle to Gerry"s Bar for a session. About halfway between Tobago and the Excelsior (map it if you must).
Other Entertainment
Interestingly...or not, there does not seem to be much on the interwebz about entertainment for "gentlemen" in Lloret de Mar. This may be because of the wealth of discos/nightclubs that abound where the pretty young things will gather in the high season.
Off season...I have no idea. The closest I can find...and I"ve strained a wrist and ruined my eyesight looking (;D) is the Aztek which (rumour has it) striptease & wet t-shirt nights. I can"t find too much on this anyway.
Whatever, I"m way to old for that nightclubbing/disco nonsense...unlike some (cough) like Des & Tighty.
Frankly...after Gerry"s I"ll wend my way back to the Excelsior..if I happen to stumble into the odd hostelry on the way..so be it.
Of course...the best laid plans and all that...but that"s what I"m doing...if you choose something different...I hope to pass you in the street.

Right, that"s Derek Liddle and I booked up!
As above;
Prestwick to Girona
Friday night 20:50 land, leave 10:30am Monday
The "£20+ (return) range" for a shuttle van sounds good but may consider a private car if anyone else will join us. 35km away, so £40 total each way maybe ... ?
Twin Room with sea view at Excelsior to add to above.

My mate Steve & I are on the same flights, but we got the whole weekend as a package (£214 3 nights all-inclusive - wiiii!!!!) so we"ve got some kind of transport laid on. See you in the bar at Prestwick.
