on Google Maps 360 deg - At the end of this alley is the Kobe Motomachi - swing round to your left and go through the door - it looks almost the same as when I last went there in 1983 (visited many times 77-83) - there used to be a mirror behind the bar, not on the right wall, but there is still a P & O pennant behind the bar and what looks like it may be a picture of a UASC K class ship (too much light shining off the surface to be sure)

It is now called the Licky Tomato Bar (names of two other bars in Kobe back then) but this used to be the Harbor Lights Bar, Kobe

Amazing what you can find in google maps these days
Dear God, how much money did I squander down the Motomachi in Kobe? If I'd have saved it I would be living in a big house in Heswall like all my sensible Engineer shipmates.
