Well the first cruise I went on was everything bar the drinks free - so my cabin accounts was alcohol, some photos, and a few bits and pieces. 2 of us - raging alcoholic (myself), casual drinker (dearly beloved) - cabin bill over £1100 for the 14 days.

Second cruise didn't bother with the photos and bits and bobs so much - cabin bill about £950.

(Stella was £2.70 a pint - double Gin and Tonic about £4.00 - the rest is a blur but on cruise 1, having met a few like mined people, myevening tab (11pm to 1:00am) was over £100 - beware, its easily done).

I'm going to show the wife these posts. Proof indeed I do have something interesting to say.
Thanks for all the responses . I'd buy you all a glass of beer if there was enough to go round.

Hi All,
Although we didn't end up in CVO, we booked a car through Algarvedriver, so I guess its ok to post?
We're just back from the East Algarve and we loved the Santa Rita area, absolutely beautiful and Vilareal de Santo Antonio. Not a drop of rain for 2 weeks, or traffic.
Just to let you know the 30L barrel of Superbock lasted just 7 days so we topped up with bottles from the supermarket and gregarious amounts of the local vino.

We are going to return next year to the Algarve , but not sure where

Sorry. The cost of a 30 l barrel is 86 euros. So I got my maths wrong.
Not sure where it can be bought as it is being kindly provided by the owners .

Snaj, if you find out where the owners acquired the barrel from, can you let the rest of us know? I think this is a great idea for next summer :D
