Great photos - and memories! 2002 our first time in Calis, how easily you forget how things were back then. 

But by the sounds of it, many more changes to see when we arrive in May!   :)

But will they be for the better?  We'll wait and see!

If that's people sitting at the bar, I don't remember it being that far forward.

We were regulars in Bus Stop but would not have recognised anyone as I didn't join this parish until 2005.

PS I could have sworn I post this already  :(

You may need a bit of perspective - that is taken from the side entrance (from the bridge) not from the road directly outside.

Really love seeing old photos of the area - thank you so much for sharing, Colin.

If anyone else has any, please add them   :)

Another memory from these years is regular power cuts.  Sitting having a beer in Josephs bar, the lights go out, who cares, the candles arrive and they continue serving. 
I also remember another night when we were in Meeting Point during the World Cup 2006 watching a "crucial" game and we lost 20mins of the game.  Simple times, nobody cared!

Ah yes, I can see that now Scunner.  I couldn't recognise it either.   :)

The old Calis main street was much better than it is now.. In our opinion it was ruined when the bars on The right all went under the same roof... The old Calis was what we fell in love with in 2004/5... Thanks for The photo's.
