70's for me !

Bistro Bar the place.

NB I went free-riding on a Greek cruise ship between Piraeus- Turkey - Rhodes in late 70's and when I was caught I was promised "at least 3 months" in jail on Rhodes (they thought I'd gone ashore in Turkey which I hadn't, and was therefore deemed an illegal emigrant/immigrant). But the chief steward, soon as he heard I was from Wellington, NZ, came looking for me to ask if I knew the Bistro Bar. When I said I did, and correctly identified the 'types' who hung out there, i.e sailors and transvestites, he had a word with the Rhodes immigration police - and they let me off all charges.
