Dos Santos Craft Beer

Anyone visited and tried their food and beers? I have emailed them and they are hoping to get some distribution to some local bars in the next few weeks. 7 years ago I started a thread about real ale in CVO, so I really wish them well in their new venture.

Re: Live Music Venues?

Went in Roundup last night and was thoroughly entertained by the guy there with a guitar and backing tracks. Nearly live music I suppose but after a few Guinness I enjoyed myself. One of the best bars in cvo in my opinion.

Live Music Venues?

Where is the Bote mentioned below in the forum? - Is it open yet?

Just about to come out now to CVO - I do like a bit of live music with a pint.

Can anyone give me a few venues where there is a bit of live stuff and the nights they occur?

Re: Mosquito problem

Is it just me - but when I saw that picture of the spray bottle with yellowish fluid inside and labelled 'Home Made' I thought it was something else we all produce in various quantities every day! I don't know if it would repel the flying nasties, but you would find the space at a crowded bar openin...

Bringing the clubs this year with my golfing son so we are looking to play 3 courses - Any recommendations/deals about? Over the years I have playe...

Books and Golf

Can anyone confirm the Golf Shop and the Book Shop are still open on the in-road? The Golf guy used to book some courses for me with a bit of a discount on the normal rates. And rather than eat into my luggage allowance with heavy books - would like to buy them from what I remember to be a pretty go...

Re: Sim card for data

Hi Michael I used a USB dongle last time I was in CVO and sometimes here in the UK but pricey on the amount of data used. Bought myself a Huawei E585 mifi and then just use PAYG data sim cards at £4.99 per month or 1GB whichever is first. Don't top up just dispose and buy another when you want. Grea...

Re: Sim card for data

Thanks Farol. My MiFi gizmo is locked to 3 at the moment so I suspect I will have to unlock it to use the Vodaphone sim card? Is Vodaphone the best provider for mobile coverage in CVO or TMN or Optimus a better bet? I am hoping I can pick one up at the airport to save a trip, I assume there is proba...
