Not strictly CVO Ramblers business but quite a few of the Rambler Ladies are at the Zoomba Xmas Dinner on the 4th at Ponto. There is quite a big footie game on that night, Liverpool v Everton, so maybe the lads could also have a night out! Hemingways from 7.45 - see you there.

As our Walk Director is returning to the UK on 5th Dec he has asked if I could organise a walk for the 9/10th. There have been a few requests to do the popular "Two Rivers Walk" and this is what we will do, nice and simple and not too energetic - Tuesday (10th) so we can take advantage of the Mira R...

Does anyone know who runs the taxi rank outside Smilers? I have just had a really awful experience with a taxi driver in a brand new merc (A class?) and would like/need to report him. Been using that rank for 27 years and first bad experience.

Two nice walks to conclude our walking season. On Thursday 13th, Willie & Carol, Graham & Ruth & Gareth & Erica enjoyed a nice walk to and from Odiaxere followed by lunch at Choupama on the N125. This restaurant is renowned for its suckling pig but five of us had Chicken Piri Piri and one had stew! ...

Carol & I are planning to come out to Carvoeiro on the 12th June, returning to UK on the 19th.

What a really nice walk today with a nice bunch of people! Willie & Carol, Mike, Graham, Ruth & Liz, Graeme & Marian, Inge & Rude. We did the familiar local walk for the first time in reverse and even included a detour to Battleship Rock. Good news is the food/drink shack at Albandeira Beach has now...

On Thursday 25th April we will do the Porches to Albandeira walk, a very good local walk to Carvoeiro. This is a superb walk of great variety, starting off through a hamlet, then crossing the dunes, then through a valley to the cliffs between Marinha and Albandeira Beaches then back through the vall...

Willie & Carol and our two friends Liz & Steve. Walk and lunch.

Is there any interest in going on organised local walks on the 25th April and 2nd May. If so I will put two local walks together, plus lunch of course! Register your interest.
