I saw a program 'Police/Camera/Action' type TV program a few weeks ago where they used the iPhones built-in "Find my iPhone" facility to guide Police straight to the thieves as they walked down a street with the stolen phone in their bag.

Great use of technology

I wasn't sure what to expect. The altered Jet Stream has completely screwed the weather in the UK this year and I understand affected France & Spain for the worse.

Hopefully no impact here, and it is going to be as good as last year.

Certainly seems that way so far.

I thought I'd share this as it may just help someone on here in the future. Friends of ours were out for a meal near the end of their holiday (not Portugal) when their apartment was burgled. :evil: The thief was after high value items and stole a couple of laptops. They reported the crime and had to...

Hello, silly question I know, but im coming out to carvoeiro on Monday and was wondering what the weather is going to be like? If it is anything like today it will be glorious :D We arrived on Friday night and both days have been hot. A bit of cloud yesterday but today has been a total blue sky! Ac...

Cheers. Hope you enjoy your holiday too. We made it to Carvoeiro no problem (Flight from Leeds Bradford even arrived 10 minutes early :D ) and the weather has been fantastic. Bright sunshine, vivid blue skies and not a single cloud in the sky today. We went down to the square last night - great fun ...

Well a year has passed and we are heading back to Carvoeiro! :P :P :P :P We had planned to stay in the UK this year but the fact it has rained in Chorley just about every day since March did the trick. We need some clear blue skies (not to mention piri-piri chicken & beer while sat in the sunshine.....

Thanks for all the comments :D We had a great time in Carvoeiro. Blue skies & glorious sunshine every single day, very friendly people and the food was excellent. (Not pleasant arriving back at Manchester Airport to 13 degrees, in the dark to very heavy rain...) :( We stayed at the Tivoli at the top...

We are leaving a very wet and grey Chorley today :( and flying out to Carvoeiro for 11 days :D ('Can't wait' doesn't come close) Both my teenage daughters were up, showered and ready before 7:00AM which is quite an achievement in the summer holidays... I'd just like to says thanks for this forum. We...

Thanks, that's great. I've printed a copy.

Excellent, thanks. We'll probably do the same - Bus out and taxi back.

Hi, We are coming over to Carvoeiro on Friday for our first holiday in Portugal and while we are there I'd like to visit Portimao & Praia de Rocha. I've looked on the Eva Bus website and I'm a bit confused by the timetable. There are two rows of prices under the headings 'Inteiro' and 'Meio'? Google...
