We had exactly the same experience about 2 years ago .Average monthly bill of 20-30 euros then 1 month it was 1500 euros . Despite many phone calls , solicitors letters and pleading that it just couldn't be correct we got absolutely no where .Never happened again - i worked out the volumes at the ti...

think its on Clube Atlantico above Carvalho beach

exactly same thing happened to me . You can repair it - need to take it all to pieces and the I bought some washing line and threaded it through using a bent metal coat hanger . Passed an afternoon but is good as new

If you want a big picture best one in town is Bistro 72 on the out road .They have a projector onto one of the walls about 20 foot square and decent quality .Hope Utd do it but think they will need to poison Messi first

same thing happened to us few years ago with Villlapac - ordered stuff in the UK but only some of the order turned up and then no answer when follow it up .Best getting furniture in Algarve - I know it takes longer but better service

I would advise caution on going all the way to India for your dentistry - what happens if you have a problem and need to return ? Also costs whilst cheaper could be a false economy if you need to have it rectified . Cost of a crown on the NHS is £198 and privately ( in the North ) about £350 so pers...

And Cliff even joined in on a chorus of Happy Birthday for our friend when we presented her with a birthday cake .
I was tempted to go and get one of the cardboard cutouts of him from outside the wine store down the road and ask him to sing a duet in the Roundup but Joanne stopped me - shame really

Again can recommend TJ Technica- have done a couple of systems for us - nice people and reasonable.Shop is in underground precinct on Rua do Farol

I can also recommend Bravo Tur- used them lots over the years and always reliable . One of the owners ,Stuart ,is English and lives in the village

this is an old one - irish man with some spare tarmac working round the corner .Never heard of one carrying it around in the back of a M series beemer thou

I notice that everybody always seems to say that Barclays UK is nothing to do with Barclays Portugal .Well , they are part of the same group although being in different countries will be limited companies in their own right .But we have a Barclays mortgage in Portugal and to save having to go over t...

was open last week

Just got back from CVO tonight - 4 hour delay as MCR shut this am with snow - again ! Point about lack of gutters in Algarve is very valid - you only have to walk down the out rd and see the rain cascading off appts of monte dourado and others .Our villa is a new build with no gutters and this year ...

Does anyone know what events are planned this year for Carnival ? Last year was quiet due to road works but I am hoping this year will be more events organised

Go to RJ Technica on Rua do Farol - tell them what you need and they will sort it all out for you .They are in the underground shops .Did my satellite and lots of others around town - everyone seems happy with them
