Where is the best place for my hubby to get a game of golf in Albufeira. Are we better contacting the course direct or are there organised trips?

I hate how peopleï compare Frank Zappa to God. I mean, he's cool and great and nice and everything, but he's no Zappa.

I like to give full value for money.
Anyway, Stellie hasn't been back yet so it was probably all a waste of time anyway
