Definitely the latter so I can make sure the thing’s open before leaving terra firma.
He didn’t need a chute, he’ll just flutter to the ground like a falling oak leaf.
A brief escape to Portugal. Had to scrape ice off the car yesterday before heading to the airport.
26C in Lisbon. The power of sunshine and warmth is very strong and very therapeutic.
Bollocks to cold and grey England.
Sintra ?
Frank?
Well, pretty honest, at the least.
Good Pasteis de Nata store in the old town
We have scoffed a few. My first time in Portugal, I’ve no idea why, I love it.
It’s one of my favourite European countries. A superb holiday destination. The food is top notch and it is good value compared to the rest of Europe.
Going in September & looking forward to it.
Shrewsbury was quite nice. Conwy was a bit wet.
Had a nice time.
You should have popped in - we’re half an hour away.
Athens next week for a week. We’ll probably head out to an island after 3 or 4 days in Athens.
I recommend Naxos if you get a chance.
Primarily Naxos Town (white washed, narrow lanes, etc), but if you want some chill, then Maragas Beach. Loads of comfortable accommodation, good Tavernas, and probably one of the most beautiful beaches in all Christendom.
Conwy was a bit damp? No shit.
Next time. Will probably go back at some point. Some nice old pubs there.
