Not only did we have Carol's very interesting newsletter, but Ellie added another chapter to her (Algarve-)life-story. A touch of sadness but great reading. Thank you both for your efforts, it is appreciated.

Hi Ellie.

Just caught up on your latest chapter. Very moving, the sadness comes across, you're very honest in describing your feelings. Looking forward to the next installment.

Jock.

....and now Mac and I are back out here living in our cottage in the sun. My new hip making me feel like a spring lamb, the world seems a lovely place. What makes it even better is that we are surrounded by all our friends, Portguese and English.
Life doesn't get better than this.

The End....for now

.......will that do Ellie??? xxx

Could do with some of that warm sun on my bones right now.....every step I take, every move I make (loud cracks & pain)

Thanks for nice words Jock..I do appreciate them, and hope you are keeping well

You can get to it from the home page, it's called Ellie's Corner.

Hi Chris

It isn't a 'newsletter' as such (Carol writes those), but stories of our time of living/working in Algarve. They go back over 5 years (to March 2003)...about our first years (from 91) and then our return to have another go in '94..
interspersed with my holiday stories
