Yes I vucking well have.

I checked it on Google as well, so 15,000 other people have spelt it wrong.

Ooops! Seems it can be either spelling. I should have checked.

Can't find it in any English Dictionary though. Very confused now.

No you are right, it is spelt with an "f"

We had heard some talk of the polidesportivo behind the Marisqueira being turned into a multi-storey carpark, which sounded like a good idea. Out of the way sort of hidden and not to far out of town with lots more than 80 spaces. This new idea sounds a bit stupid seeing as along that bit of road you could probably park 80 cars anyway1 I don't think people renting in Monte Dourado are going to think it's very funny when their road is the main road in and out of carvoeiro

Also Ma-Ja's road (Rua do Casino) is to become one way but the other way, no mention of the Tia Ilda road, I don't think it's been thought through very well.

I gather the Monte Dourado road would only be temporary until the square was updated. I couldn't see this road being suitable permanently, vans even struggle up this hill.

Which? The railway or the expletive.

Being a bit of a Nimby, I certainly hope not. My apartment is over the marisqueira and I like the peace and quiet up there! Not to mention it is quite a walk up that hill after a few drinks ...

As the old joke goes
There's no f in vernicular

and there's not likely to be one in Carvoeiro either.

We always park by the chapel, and walk down the hill into town. Sure, it's a stiff climb back up to the car afterwards, but it helps to burn off the calories.

I heard that they dont mean for the parking to be by the chapel but at the other and of th road near to the algar seco bistro. Still a huge hill but even further from the town. Perhaps the camera will buy the little train to take people up there thus getting a bit of yr railway in CVO!
