This is the email that started it all:-

Cj's karaoke bar is up the road from Bonanza Square. Further on up than Casa Eduardo's. It's right beside the restaurant Angeliques. I want you to list this bar because it's a brilliant bar. Happy Hour starts at 9 and finishes at 10 local time. At 10pm (right after Happy Hour) and then finishes at 2.30am I think. I just came back from Benlamadena and I'm already missing the owner and the staff. The owner is Cathy who is a Welsh singer and her little siter, Hannah, helps out. The staff are really great and craic is the best. I met loads of people there and had great craic and when a great song comes on everyone is singing. And when Sweet Caroline comes on (CJ's favourite song) everyone has to stand up, hold hands and sing along.The bar staff and waiting staff. walk around and you can order drinks from your table and they are brought over to you.

In charge of the karaoke, are: Cathy (the owner) and Tristan. You will not find better craic anywhere else and if you do list this bar please put up pictures of all the regulars because, even though I've only been away from them 2 days, I really miss them all. All information based on what it was like on 5th August 2005. Brendan Reid, 7th August 2005. P.S. Please list this bar it's really great.
