Talking to our local marina at Lagos the other day, it is apparent that they already have a huge number of UK reservations building up for the 2009 season.
The charming portuguese lady in the office couldnt understand why this was happening.
"why 'ave we all these 'reservashions' for 2009 from your 'ome country?" (Well thats what it sounded like to me).
I did explain to her about red diesel, but my portuguese is (very) limited and I dont think she understood.
I wondered if this is repeated across the Med and other parts of Europe? Can any other forum member update us please?
Incidentally - I did discover that the commercial diesel in Portugal is 50 cents a litre. (35p or thereabouts). But you can only buy that if you are a commercial boat. Or perhaps take tourists out for a trip...........
Now theres a thought? /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
