Re: Looking for a apartment

Hi there, I don't know if it is only the apartment above the chemist which will suit you, but I do know someone who has an apartment along the way in Monte Dourada and their apartment might be available at that time. PM me and I can give you contact details.

Re: ref fiscal rep

Yes Macassa Call into the office in Lagoa bring bills from Portugal, your fiscal number and your passport. Take a number for the queue, sit and relax, then up you go to the desk and explain that you want the bill sent to the UK, give them your address and Bob's your uncle. We have been doing it now ...

Pool running costs

I was wondering if any fellow members of the forum have properties in Colina Branco. If you do, could you give me an idea of the monthly/annual costs involved in running your pool. We have a pool which is of a very similar size and are in the process of taking over the management of it. I would be p...

Re: Casa Algarvia

A really good night was had by all. The generosity of Frank and Christina knows no bounds. I hope they are very successful in their new venture. Oh and their White House wine is delicious. We will be there when we are back in May. Roll on.

Re: EDP changes

Ceh
Don't be too daunted by the prospect of changing, it is easy enough to do. We get our bill sent by email every month and you can go onto the EDP site and submit your readings rather than having an estimated bill all the time. It helps us to keep track.
