Re: Supermarkets

Thanks for the replies.
Rocha Brava looks like an option only 5 minutes away as we're staying on ADM.

Supermarkets

I know this question has been asked before, but can't find it.
Won't get to Carvoeiro till around 10pm, just wondered if any of the larger stores will still be open.

Re: Algarve Travel Association

Any news on what's happened to Ron Young, when we were out last week his office was closed and for rent.
Seems strange we used him many times in the past with no problems, but not rented from him for a few years now.

Re: Mosquitoes

Wife been using tropical strength deet with no success, last night after we returned from town she was sat on balcony wearing socks and wrapped in two towels and the little blighters were still after her.
Think it's the high temperatures and lack of wind, only light breezes at the moment.

Re: Mosquitoes

They're ravenous at the moment, both day and night. We arrived Saturday and my wife already has over 20 bites,
and that's using mosquito spray and wipes, nothing stops them!!
The bonus is they leave me alone and head straight for her.

Re: Monte Dourado

Yes tried all of these but only available apartments are not in very good positions. Just wondered if any owners
who didn't use any of the sites I've looked on might have these dates left.

Re: suggestions please

Agree with Bruce, we have used Zitauto for years with no problems. My daughter and boyfriend came out the same time as
us this year and had to wait over an hour to get their car from office in car park 4 ( we were at the villa by the time they set off) so cheap is not always best.
