Just back from a week in albufuira, deecay. Great spot, super food, especially if you like sea food. Super Boc is good, although some boozers sell guinness. Lots of nice resturants along beach front. Plenty of restuarnts and in the strip (montochoro), a €4 ride away. Don't buy any football kits in the sports shops. 7 year old is an Arsenal fan (and Shels) and I relented and bought him the new Arsenal jersey (very like the Drogs strip, with O2 logo as well). Anyway it was €50 over there and I say the same strip in Lifestyle for €42.
Anyway great holiday spot.
Still have a week left in Blackwater, here's hoping the weather improves.

Check out the prices here first. You may get the local jersies a lot cheaper than imported ones, although the Arsenal strip was made in Portugal.

Was in cyprus two years ago. went by the stadium while going into nicosia. It looks like a decent place ( unlike landsdowne ) should be a great game.

Was there for the last World Cup Qualifier in 2001
Not a bad ground but very open and you feel detatched from the pitch/action.
should be a great game.
If the game in Lansdowne Road last year and our game in Nicosia in 2001 are anything to go by, it will be a rubbish game!
The trip should be good and hopefully the result will be another 3 points after 3 against France.
