Re: Here, kitty, kitty, kitty

As it is unlikely this thread will help to find the lost cat and has degenerated into insults - topic locked

Re: Here, kitty, kitty, kitty

Sorry LB but I'm a cat owner and agree with heini - it's in very poor taste considering the subject of the thread

Re: Problem with dogs in CVO

There have been dogs wandering round carvoeiro for more than twenty years, to my knowledge, and I guess for much longer but I don't recall any cases of people being bitten I would rather there weren't any loose dogs, but as has been said previously, it's a cultural difference here and I expect it wi...

Re: Problem with dogs in CVO

Where is this ? , We have not seen any incidents as described. Nor have we on our stay there last week. In fact I made a remark that there wasn't any packs roaming around! ....So next time you complain about dogs barking in their own gardens, you might like to consider why they do so - possibly as ...

Re: Problem with dogs in CVO

Barking dogs are part of life here, not necessarily because they are being neglected or badly treated, but because they are outside most of the time due to the better climate. We bring our dogs in at night, but not everyone around us does, yes it can be annoying, but that's the way it is

Re: Problem with dogs in CVO

As far as dogs barking are concerned, I have often heard tourists, usually male and british unfortunately, provoking our dogs by shouting 'woof woof' as they walk past. I've also heard it from clients staying in the houses whose gardens join ours - this just teaches the dogs to bark at any noise or ...

Re: Carvoeiro 2009 Holiday review

We live here so we don't eat out every night, and do normal weekly shops at the supermarkets, the same as we would if we lived in the UK. How many people use their local Spar if they can go to Tesco? If you are on holiday and eating out most of the time, you don't need to do a lot of shopping so can...

Re: Holiday Review 2009 - The Restaurants

We ate at O Salmão a couple of weeks ago (one of my infrequent outings for a family birthday!) 4 people, 3 courses (inc 2 specials), wine, coffee, for 25€ a head - we thought it was very good value for what we had!

Re: Holiday Review 2009 - The Restaurants

Have to agree with you Patti. We don't go there that often and I have to try to remember each time! Interestingly I have the opposite view of many of the restaurants reviewed in the opening post. Don't like Villa Medici, Chef Antonio or Happys Like O Salmão, Elliotts and Ele Ela Just as well we're n...

I doubt Evian water is much in demand here - there are so many PT bottled waters that most people will buy those

We paid over 2 euros for a large pineapple in Pão de Açucar today so not much difference
