Re: Adult bikes

Sorry for late reply. I sold them both during this week. I do have an electric recumbent trike for sale. It is an Ice Adventure if you are interested. Please send me a PM for more details.

Re: Driving to Carvoeiro with a dog from UK

That's good to hear. It must be the best for the animals if the pet transport people do it. That way the dog is always with you and not left in the car or in a kennel. Have a good trip.

Re: Driving to Carvoeiro with a dog from UK

The channel tunnel is the route the pet transport people use. The dog stays with you in the vehicle and is a very short trip. I suppose it depends where you are starting from in the UK.

Re: Parakeets on Vale do Milho

This time of the year there are always quite a few of these beautiful birds in the bushes and trees. Usually about 4 pairs in a flock. Luckily they fly away to other regions before the hunters start putting their bird traps in the trees. I see a lot in the area opposite the Cepsa garage coming into ...

Delivery carrier for Amazon

Hi, been waiting for a delivery from Amazon which should have arrived over a week ago. The tracking site says insufficient address and to contact Amazon! They have the correct address and the postal code, just missing maybe a contact telephone number. To contact Amazon I just keep going around in ci...

Re: UK Sports TV

Re: Refurbished Tivoli?

We had some of that view before they built the expensive and little used Sky Bar, now we can only see wooden troughs, greenery that is growing too tall and folded umbrellas. The noise of the air conditioners is beyond a joke and music coming from the bar is annoying too for us and all of our neighbo...

Re: New wooden structure?

The local residents of the surrounding areas all signed a letter and this was submitted to the council offices way back. A reply was received confirming they had visited the hotel and had been told that new units were being purchased and would be fitted at some future date! The same story was given ...

Re: New wooden structure?

And it thickens even more, yet another structure going up, either looking onto the main road or the scruffy side of the Tivoli that hasn't been renovated! Maybe to listen to the dreadful noise of the air conditioning units that have been switched on since the 14th May continuously 24 hours a day!

New wooden structure?

Anyone any idea what the new large curved wooden structure is for between the Tivoli and Palm Gardens? Can't be a look out as nothing to look out onto!! at the moment. Obviously the ones either side of the steps at Praia Centienes is for pedestrians to admire the view and rest their weary legs but t...

Re: Tivoli Refurbishment

Would anyone believe, the owners of the hotel did not apply for a licence to do all the works. Apparently they told the Camara they were doing internal modifications so no one from the Fiscal checked until just recently!

Re: It seems that the Tivoli is moving upmarket

I have a cat who prefers to live at the Tivoli than at home so feed her every day there. I do hope they will not be putting the price up for her accommodation next year!! Presently she lives in the little greenhouse by the gardeners room.

Re: Missing kitten

Have you asked down at Villapet if anyone has brought her in? Usually that is the first stop, then on to the Carvoeiro cat sanctuary. Maybe she has got herself locked in somewhere. I have found in the past when looking for a missing cat, very late at night and very early in the morning are the best ...

Re: Does anyone recognise this little dog?

Morning everyone. Just an update. The owner hasn't been found and no 0ne knows the little dog. I see from Facebook that the lady who found him (or he found her) has decided to keep him so happy ending.
