Feliz Natal (Happy Christmas) to one and all.
Haven't managed a pre christmas visit although Joan was meant to fly out on Monday the 17th December. I missed a turn on the motorway and finished up closer to Humberside airport than Robin Hood where I should have been. Any way she missed the flight !
Fortunatly it only cost 25 quid. If you are considering a visit to portugal check out Thomsonfly from Doncaster/Sheffield robin hood airport. They have some fabulous prices at the moment.
I have been taken to task over my constant referal to Santa Luzia as a village, there are apprantly now 1700 inhabitants in S L , quite a lot by portuguese standards, and in the 1980s it was granted town status. Further more in the 90s it was upgraded to "small city".
We are hoping to get to the small city early in the new year to distribute belated christmas presents.
Meanwhile Paulo, former waiter at Mouraou restaurant, is looking forward to his first christmas here in the UK.
He is gradually learning to take with him hat gloves and scarf when he ventures out because in his own words "Esta muito, muito frio la fora" (It is very,very cold outside)
Muito Frio Paulo enjoys a warm atmosphere in The cross Green pub with John my No 1 roofer's labourer.
