Re: New Wine Bar Opportunity
Will you be looking to keep the prices reasonable to attract the customers to stay for more than one drink, or will you be doing what most bar owners seem to be doing and fleece the tourists for as much as they can for a short season?

Summer Update
Hello All
Unfortunately we didnt get out to CVO this year, and i was wondering how things went this year tourism wise. Were the numbers up or down, and were the prices hiked or stable. I know that the previous year tourism was down about 15 to 20% but i was wondering how it all went.

Re: Quiet around town
Have to say yet again that it seems that the traders in CVO are pricing themselves out of business. I noticed last year the many of the bars etc were not only empty but charging high prices for drinks etc. I can only agree with what has been said in the past, that they are all hiking their prices up...

Re: supermarkets
I think that you will find that Intermarche prices will be pretty competitive now the season is coming to an end.

Re: The Stranglers
Great to see NIls back with the Boss. I remember when the Boss played Newcastle and i managed to get a chat with Nils, said he couldnt do his back flips as he had hurt his back at Wembley. Happy days

Re: Carvoeiro 2009 Holiday review
For Info, if you are anywhere near Rocha Brava, avoid the little supermarket there like the plague (one next to the fountain). There prices are ridiculous and totally over priced, as that is the only shop in the area. Need a bit competition i think

Re: Running a Bar
If you do get it up and running, keep the prices down and you will get more people in, often than not a number of bars charge high prices to make as much as they can during the busy months and customers feel they are not getting value for money.
