We have lived at Boa Vista very happily for 5 years but if you would like to PM or e-mail me, we can give you a warts and all report.

I agree with the other comments but possibly the most important is to make a point of talking to your postman -- tell him your name and the new name of the house -- wish him Boas Festas accompanied by dineiros -- and all postal problems are solved. Ours even asks if we have anything for him to take ...

It can't be in CVO -- the promotional literature says itis only 30 minutes from Faro airport :o :o My fastest time is 45 minutes door to doorand that was at night!!

Hi cowboy. For god's sake get your juke box working. No-one has been in Smokey Joes since Digger and I met on November 7th and we were getting paranoid about whether we were wearing the wrong aftershave or something. :roll: :roll: or is it the smoky atmosphere :? :? or is it indeed the c--p music fr...

Yes Joe Dalcassian it is indeed the same.

Only problem is that I cannot fly the plane and take photos at the same time.

Anyone out there (or yourself Joe on your next visit) with a good camera and no fear of low flying want to assist ?

Good Heavens Sandy ---- I didn't realise you were an O.A.P.

You look good for your age -- What's your secret ?
