Off for a break to the Algarve tomorrow, just want to check that there are no undesirable from the forum already there...
Interesting time to choose to go the Algarve - we never go in October - the weather can still be great and it’s quieter which is good. thing is October is mosquito season- seriously they grow as big as bees - make sure you take plenty of repellent but they are pretty much desensitised to that. Try not to get bitten and the swelling and itching can be pretty bad but they also carry Nile Fever in southern Portugal now. A short stay in a medical facilities with an IV antibiotic normally sorts within the week. have a great time.
Off to meet up with some relatives who have an apartment in Lagos...so timing was purely to suit them...will watch out for the mozzys....perhaps give the wooded areas on the SW coast a miss.
I've got enough to contend with....the relatives are a couple of mad Glaswegians. I fear for my liver and sanity!
We're all still here. @crossy2112 is dancing on the tables in his Y fronts, @Barry Haynes is chatting up all the waiters that have got hair and a moustache, @Geordie is going around the place selling lucky heather and "collecting" anything that isn't tied down, @jivedubbin and @paul2590 are now joining crossy! What about @Jack Tatty i hear you ask? Well, he's being sick in the corner......................................................again!!!
Just checked the wild camp site at Alvor, none of the usual suspects are there! Can't see why everyone likes Alvor, it's just cafe bars and more bars......ahh....got it ! Sent from my SM-J330FN using Tapatalk
