I think for me it would be the bleaching of all the pillars and posts along Rua do Barranco to remove the deposits left by our local dog population!!
Any other suggestions?

Think it’s about time we had a McDonalds
Please nooooooo!

I agree Sue - it has to be Burger King

We could have both, one on the ''IN''' road and one on the ''OUT'' road.

Maybe a Nandos would be more appropriate

Happy New Year to all from Wet Cold and Windy Scotland.
For 2015 I would like to see more restaurants and hotels opened at the end of the year.
My wife and I were out early December and it looked as if Carvoeiro had closed for the winter.
How do we expect to encourage tourism when the main hotels (except the Cristal) are closed.
Well done the Cristal and all the restraurants and bars that were opened - you at least made us feel welcome and the food and drink were great as always.
ps We certainly do not need McDonalds lets just keep Carvoeiro as it is without burger bars that are everywhere.

A proper "Chippy" I was going to start one in CVO "village" 15 years ago but I never did obviously!

I just go to Happy's for proper Fish and Chips, with the added bonus of Mushy Peas, you can't beat it

Methinks that Sam is just trying to wind people up over McDonalds.....
No more Pato, so maybe Sam seeks that onerous crown!

A definite "NO" to fast food burger outlets! Litter is one reason. Though my sons were disappointed when the Funky Chicken (in-road just before cobbled street starts) shut down, were well taken by chips in a plastic bag!
On a personal note, will never enter a Nando's given their treatment of my daughter and 2.5 year old grand-daughter just before Christmas. Yes, establishments can state "Toilets for customers use only" but to refuse a 2.5 year old who was in obvious distress is something I'll not accept. As a company they obviously don't allow management discretion. Family in city centre to view the Christmas Lights etc and given a cold evening, well, we probably have all been in that position!
Like the idea of jump on/jump off tourist train (stops obviously!!!) but could be problems at popular stops at times when more people want on than there are empty seats.
Trying not to be all negative, I really like CVO (been coming to area for 8 years and have bought property) but I think what I'd like to see is better 'house-keeping' of the area. More control of :- dog-fouling; businesses disposing of their waste; litter pick on common areas, e.g viewpoints on high roads either side of beach.
Heading over 20th January..........I'll be the grump in the corner in Hemies!!
Happy New Year to all Forums members!!!

Can get that anywhere in the UK - don't need to go the CVO for them and also be insulted by a Dutchman!

We go to Happys to be insulted by a Dutchman. We outnumber him so he gets as bad as he gives!
And we reckon his fish and chips are the best we have ever tasted.
