It is high up with a balcony and has a superb view over both the two pools and straight down to the sea front (Praia da Oura) It can take 6 people so a family or friends!<p />Weeks 33 and 34 (August)<br />From Saturday to Saturday<p />The large pools have a diving board and two shoots! (I was always fond of those) with a restaurant that serves lunch and dinner, overlooking the water. (There is also an indoor pool and Spa on the 3rd floor)<p />There is entertainment in the bar downstairs at night and kids entertainment too! organised competitions and waterpolo matches - and on occasion, even some water aerobics for those of your who are brave enough!<p />This is going for a great deal of GBP600 a week (GBP100 per person per week if six people go) I am not making a huge profit, but I do need to charge so to cover the expensive maintenance cost.<p />It is Self-catering but there are lots of shops not far away to stock up! The apartments are on their own site and only those staying are allowed to use the facilities etc.. it has friendly staff and security ready to help 24 hours a day! There is also Maid service - who clean daily and make up the beds!<p />Is is right at the bottom of a road called 'The Strip' that has a thriving night life of restaurants and bars and market stalls etc...(which are minutes away from the back of the apartments) however the apartments are set apart near the sea, so are quiet at night!<p />There are also various waterparks and other trips that leave just near-by... and the mountains are not far away if you fancy something a little more relaxing!<p />The sooner you book the better deals of flights out to faro! so please let me know if you are interested and I can provide you with more details!<p />If there are more people that are thinking of going... we have other apartments available over the same period... for more friends or another family etc. Please just ask.<p /><br /> <p /> Wed, 26 Mar 2008 20:57:00 GMT http://www.bethemoviestar.com/main.php?l=digest.show&item=42 http://www.bethemoviestar.com/main.php?l=digest.show&item=42 "London Thing" is a low budget feature film to be filmed in London during Spring.<p />The film is the gritty story of two friends trying to deal with the pressures of life in London. Looking at the interaction of living in London at every level from the underworld to different classes and the mix of cultures, London Thing is an honest and harsh depiction of life in the city. <p />Cast needed: Preferably London based for commitment and travel purposes. <p />STEVE PALMER - early 30s. Black, well educated, slick, with a street edge. Drug dealer, loving life. Realistic, knows people like him for what he does not who he is. Looking to make more money and willing to cross boundaries to do so.<p />SUPERINTENDENT GARY DEMPSEY- early 50s. White, in relatively good condition but you can tell he likes his red wine and red meat. Recently divorced, bitter, lost his way a little bit. Likes to play the big shot, but still insecure.<p />CLAUDIA COHEN - late 20s. White, haughty, Notting Hill model type. Likes the coke. Determined and pragmatic. Self-centred but also encouraging of others. Sets high standards that she expects others to live up to. Still naive around certain aspects of life - different cultures, etc.<p />MARIA GEORGIOU - Mid 20s. Greek, short and cute, voluptuous body. Not the smartest cookie in the box. Likes the coke.<p />HARRY MEGSON (MEGS) - late 30s to late 40s. Any nationality. Tough, no-nonsense underworld figure. More right-hand man than top dog. Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.<p />TERRY BAKER - late 30s to early 50s. Any nationality. Tough, imposing. Top dog underworld figure. Irrational and mean minded.<p />KRYSTIAN KAPELSKI - mid 20s. Polish. Skinny and sour-faced. Lazy and sneaky. Wants to make a lot of money but wants to do it the easy way. Mixes with the big boys but he himself is less than a small fry.<p />JERZY MILKO - 40s. Polish. Down to earth and hard working. Looks out for his friends and those that he works with, but is not prepared to let people take him for granted.<p />DETECTIVE INSPECTOR HARRIS - late 30s. Standard through the ranks policeman. Wants to get ahead and will bend the rules if he has to.<p />SIMON COHEN - early 50s. Notting Hill resident of an affluent nature.<p />NICOLA COHEN - early 50s. Notting Hill resident of an affluent nature.<p />SUZANNE DEMPSEY - early 50s. White, well kempt and attractive older lady.<p />ROSIE - young. White, slutty.

As the car drives, people stop to look. It is as if the car is looking for something, or someone. The car and its driver have returned to put things right. Their journey will take them to the edge of humanity, all roads lead to revenge.'<p />The premiere for 'Dark Roads' staring Nick Sonnex, Scott Livingstone and Laurence Johnson, with Anita Allard and Emily Biddle, will be held on the 18th March at the Odeon Cinema Canterbury. The screening will commence at 12:00 till 1:00, (30 minute film) with an opportunity to meet some of the cast and crew. We are also aiming to have after screening drinks (location to be confirmed).<p />It is a strictly invite only event - I will be emailling out the tickets as soon as numbers are confirmed. SO SEND ME YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS To tiffany.sonnex100@hotmail.com<p />Looking forward to seeing you there! <p />PS please note this is a non-certificated screening and contains strong language and scenes of a graphic nature.

Offers need to be in excess of five british pounds, and you will need to provide a self-written waiver that you will not be upset or seek compensation under any circumstances once you receive your drawing, as Jamie has been caught out like this before. Your ideas can be as complicated, devious, disgusting or outrageous as possible, as they may bear little relevance to the final piece of original artwork. <br /><br />Don't submit for this bespoke service if you are easily upset, are pregnant, suffer from motion sickness or are one of those serial complainers in life.
