Well, we did it! Our final walk of the season and when I got back to the car it was only 32.5! Nine of us for the walk - we did the complete circuit: Willie & Carol, George & Ails, Paul & Janette, Linda & Russel, Mike. We were joined by Sandy at lunch in Casa Da Vinha - a truly superb lunch includin...

Please bear in mind that the temperature on Monday may well be in the low to mid 30’s so please bring plenty water and cool clothing. The walk is normally around 2hrs but we will have plenty stops and not go too quickly, so it may be a wee bit longer. Lunch has been booked at Casa Da Vinha for 12.30...

Walk & Lunch please

This is the walk that was planned for the 17th March, pre the lockdown. It is a simple walk through the Silves Orange Groves but approaching it from another direction. It was last done by CVO Ramblers about 5 yrs ago and is well worth reprising. It is only about 1hr 40mins and is level(ish) in some ...

Thanks for the photos and best wishes and special thanks to Sue for her poem. I’ve had a lovely couple of days. My aim is to keep going till I’m 80 like Gail.

Is anyone out there ripping out their old kitchen?

We need a 900mm wide wooden wall mounted cupboard to fill a gap caused by removal of our water tank.
