Hemmingways

Post by bugsey »

Probably one of the best bars in Carvoeiro. However, there have been a few postings about changes there. Can someone tell me, is Murray and Hazel still there? Also, did Ivan ever come back from his trip home to Canada at the start of the year?

Never really used Hemmingways, but a clue to the current owners comes in the form of footie matches being shown.

Last week when England played the Swiss, the match was on the TV outside Hways. The Scotland match was being shown inside.

We were in Oasis having dinner at the time.

Murray & Hazel still there but are heading home to UK. Sharon who has worked in Hemmi's for quite a while (with the lovely Pat) & her husband David are taking it on from the 1st October I think. Going to really miss Murray & Hazel but I'm sure Sharon & Dave are going to do a great job & it will remain one of the most popular bars in Carvoeiro.

You didn't actually pay for a beer there did you? How much did it cost? - or did you pretend to be a customer so you could use the loos?

Apparently Murray now qualifies for Winter Fuel Allowance in the UK , hence the rush to return!

Anyhoos , will be over for the Hootenanie, to help Murray deplete his extensive Ruby Port Collection!

Ciao, ciao,

Cooler King.
