Me too, discovered the site I think about four years ago and it's been a tremendous help to people that don't or didn't know the village existed and needed more information. It's surprising how many other sites refer to this site when talking about the Algarve. It's a tribute to you Steen for creating the site in the first place and maintaining it so well. It's given many people information, laughs, rows, and the occasional fright and above all to the regular visitors, a link to our "second home". Well done and long may it continue.

Hello, me again, Would it not be a good idea to create some "tasteful" tea shirts and polo style tops which one assumes you could buy initally from the shop and who knows if they take off (they will) other local distibutors. It would help to run the site and promote the the village there and back home when the weathers ok! Any thoughts on this Steen? Could also mention the car hire as well!

Blondelle · Post by **Blondelle** » Fri May 09, 2003 8:28 pm

I'd like to second that great idea Mike --what design would the tee-shirts have ? Do you mean just WWW.Carvoeiro.com or maybe a print of the bay --there may be many suggestions I expect.
Steen,our stalwart master, dont blush,just bask in the sunshine of work well done;we applaud you .
Im a relative newcomer to the site (early Mar 03) although Ive read the old message boards for a year or so and they were all such a help.
I booked my last hoiday through the site and have booked this years from it also,so have many reasons to be grateful.
But most of all I'd like to say publicly,thanks Steen,so much for giving me the opportunity to write about my time in Algarve;my own corner on Home page.That was really generous of you and youve given me confidence to write more,not just on this but my fiction work as well.
Thanks also for putting up with some of mycheeky banter !
Thank-you,God bless,
& well done!, Elliex

I would like to add my congratulations, Steen. Ever since I discovered this web-site two or three years ago, I have been a daily visitor. It is brimming with information and a wonderful way to keep up to date on happenings in Carvoeiro. I have posted the link many a times in forums (fori, fora???) in Canada, thus I'd like to think enticing some of us Canucks to check the place out personally. Cheers to many, many more years.

i was dining last june with my wife,on our first holiday
in carvoeiro,when someone mentioned a guy was taking
pictures for the website...i`ve been totally hooked since
then on the weathercam...it certainly brightens up a day behind
a desk..trouble is i`ll probably now become hooked on the forum..!

Well done indeed

This site keeps us going during our time away from the Algarve. If the web cam goes down I suffer from withdrawal. Keep up the good work Steen it is much appreciated.

XL Polo shirt please (

why not add personalisation options so we can go forum poster spotting

)
