She'd rung him
and he had the details up when we got there.Off to see Nelson, to get the acid for the pool, nope. Arriving later this afternoon, I'll drop it in - we're about 11 kms from Ourique, so we told him we'll come and pick it up later in the week.
Pingo next. The beer carton was badly damaged, so the young lad lifted up the manky one, and another lad got the box we wanted. The butcher wanted to know why I wasn't ordering anything
At the bar, Jose shook our hands, wanted to know where we'd been - back to England, as he hadn't seen us for a week. We got told off for not telling him we'd be without a car, as we could have borrowed one of his (John Deere tractor anyone?
) Odette came out with a letter from Evora Hospital for Grumpy and Jose wanted to know the health problem was. No problem, they just need his e-mail.Bertalina and Asvedo, both in their 90's, who live few steps away, made the point of coming over to see us, kisses, shake hands, because they also hadn't seen us for a week. And they were worried about us
Love where I live
