Re: A Galaria

We ate here earlier this month and it was poor. The prices look good, but the portions were a bit stingy and the food was average at best. Worst of all was the appalling service, the staff seemed disinterested and demotivated, they failed to bring out our starter, we had to ask for the bill four tim...

Re: Hotel Sol

DJ, I haven't stayed there but there are some videos on You Tube showing the Hotel bedrooms, dining room etc, might be worth a look. Looks comfortable tourist class I'd say.

Re: Please tell me I don't have to believe this

May be it will break following the intense heat and settle in the high 80's in time for us coming out next week. I would take anything right now after the garbage summer we've had in the NW.

They should be moved on but it's not enough for me to cancel my holiday, quit this forum or go to Greece next time

Re: Apolonia opened yet ?

Interesting, can anyone make a comparison with Intermarche in terms of prices, quality and availability of brands found in the UK? I have to get specific items at home eg Alpro unsweetened almond milk, if I can get this type of product I would definitely pay them a visit. Thanks, Jez

Re: Webcam

Summer weather has almost disappeared in the NW as well after a decent spell in early July. Pathetic really but don't care what it does next month as we will be in CVO, bring it on. Re the webcam, it doesn't appear to be as clear as it once was, but could just be me.

72 is a lot of bites. They tend to leave me alone but my wife is usually a target. Good luck to those who are prone.

Re: Car Hire Carvoeiro

I've used Yor a few times, usually get a taxi from Faro to CVO and get the car delivered to our villa for the last few days of the holiday. Returning it to the airport has always been trouble free due to them having their own van in the car park, although I gather this has all now changed and they a...
