Hi Robbie. I'm Sharon and I too am a webcam addict who needs her fix.

My office computer isn't the same without CVO in the background from Matabixo. :roll:

Michael, I sent Robbie the CVO link earlier but he could not log in via that route. So I sent him the Prime site on the hope that he could, after all he is desperate fo a look at the square.

I've just mentioned on the other webcam thread that the webcam is no longer in the window of the ice cream shop. Assume removed during the current refurbishment.

Barry,
The news just keeps getting worse. You are telling me now that the webcam is gone altogether. :( :( :( We were hoping to go down to the square on Christmas day and wave to all the family back home. I'm rightly stumped now :oops: :oops:

Hiya, I can get the web camera working, with picture no 4. But it only runs early in the morning and later in the day it freezes. Its a great view of the beach with the palm tree blowing in the breeze.
Must admit it is my favourite picture of CVO to keep on the screen to view all day if only it would not freeze up. :cry: :lol:

I can get web cam 3 and 4 to work but they are just so boring! wish the one on top of Matabixo would work again that was the best for quality of picture and for action in the square.

Is there no one who lives in cvo who could ask them what the problem is and see if they can get it working again?? pretty please :wink:

Am watching the web camera picture 4 and have it constantly running. Its great watching the sea waves roll in and I know the waves were big as could be seen at 10.40am. Now at 12.10 loads of people walking along the beach, dogs running about and quite a few lucky people having a drink out on the square. Very jealous but it does make me feel part of it as it is a live camera. Yep it sticks occassionally, but in the main its a great find and I love it.
Feel well chilled watching it as I work on the computer :lol:

Seconded Lesley Jean - lots more pretty pleases from me - surely one of you lucky ones actually out in CVO can take pity on us not so fortunate ones stuck in drizzly, grey England and get us back our webcam fix ????
