I'm sure I've probably written this before in the distant past, so apologies if so! I always sign up for the airlines email news and offers and go with whoever at the time. If you're lucky like me you can travel to many airports, but I would always go with a provincial airport everytime whenever pos...

Thanks for all your replies - much appreciated! Unfortunately some of the suggestions are too far from the village. Looks like I'll have to forget about the private heated pool though, but never mind, you can't win them all! As it's going to be lovely in December this year when I'm there, who needs ...

Disabled Parking

Does anyone know whether disabled parking is the same as in the UK? In particular parking on yellow lines and time limit, esp in towns. Also about payment eg: in London (not Westminster though) you can park for free on meters for an unlimited time. A weblink would be really useful as long as it's in...

I am an avid footie supporter but after their little sulk and paddy after the last match - I ask you - not speaking to the Press - who do they think they are??!! Overpaid and childlike are 2 adjectives I can print here! (Mind you that's an insult to all children as they are better behaved than the n...

Maybe Bleeker - but not a pretty site I can assure you of that!! No - it's just I like my creature comforts (getting old you see!) and wondered if I could get my own heated pool for a few days. Thunderbolt - oh if only you had a TV!! Not that I am an addict, but some days/nights I'm not able to get ...

Heated pools?

Are there any villas/apts with their own HEATED pool who have availability for 9 nights from Dec 4th. Also washing machine and satellite TV!! Only the 2 of us (so far!) - but any size accomodation considered apart from studios! Have looked at the accomodation listed, but can't (so far!) find all 3 r...

Been many times in February and had fantastic weather most of the time. It was only this year that we had more changeable weather, but it was still good overall. It's a lovely time to go.

Beaso - Portugal and UK share the same time as they are on the same line of longitude. I have been on planes where the pilot has told passengers to change their watches - if that happens - ignore it!! No matter what you're told it's the same time!! Another reason for liking Portugal! Wish I was ther...

Hi Annie, We've been several times during Oct half term and always had good weather. One year it was gloriously hot with clear skies the whole week! Ususally you would expect sun and some cloud. Of course - Oct can have changeable weather like any other out of season month, but as the Portuguese wea...

I know I keep saying this - but - there are only two good desserts in Carvoeiro!

1. House dessert at casa Algarvia
2. Anything from the ice-cream shop, especially the crepes!!

You don't need any other choice!!

I think I should change that to only two good desserts in Portugal and Spain!!

Jo :)
