Re: Iberia to become Andalus ?
Past UK intervention in the Middle East has generated considerable hatred among large sections of the Arab world and made it a legitimate target in the eyes of radical groups. I do not see Portugal in the same category. I would feel more concerned if I still worked in London than I do living in Car...

Re: Monte Santo Property Owners
I'm surprised that it varies from complex to complex, there are 2 licences given to a development, habitation or touristic; habitation means you own the land, buildings etc and thus you can rent it out yourself, the easy way to think of touristic is that it applies to hotels, & the hotel rents their...

Faro Airport
the designs for the airport development look really nice, this promotional video goes back over the 50 years life & evolution of the airport, it's nice so I thought I'd share it, I started coming in 1983 & can remember the old shed to the right of the current building that we had to clear immigratio...

change (again) in traffic direction

Re: investment in rocha brava
my thoughts; keep renting. buying costs purchase tax, annual maintainance charges, licences to rent it out, damp in the winter, clients peeing in you bath, pool repairs, condominnium charges, rent twice a year, if you still like it in 3 years time then consider buying if it's still an itch that need...
