Keith Duffy visits Portuguese caravan site

Posted by Greg Throughton


Caravan taps owners in Portugal were recently treated to a surprise as Boyzone member Keith Duffy took some time out from his busy schedule to indulge his love of caravanning in Portugal.


The singer-turned-actor holidayed at the Camping and Caravanning Club's Albufeira rally site in the Algarve, where he attended the annual Pig Roast celebrations.


Guests were also treated to a one-off performance by the Coronation Street star as he sang a duet with his father.


He said his passion for caravanning began as a child when his family took holidays with four other families.


"I remember afternoons of catching frogs and visiting the fun fair. The adults spent the evenings socialising as we played together," he recalled.


"Camping continues to be a big part of my family life. My mum has a static caravan, where she spends most weekends, and my children frequently stay with her."


Bob and Lyn Geary, who organised the event, said that the Coronation Street star made the weekend very memorable for all the guests.
