Thank's to another local UK ex-pat who we met at the Portuguese course I finally had some proper work to do earlier this week. Ok, so it was only cutting up some branches for firewood but I got to work outside, do a bit of exercise and get some fresh air.
For lunch I was treated to a spicy pork casserole with rice and veggies then fresh strawberries and crème fraîch to follow.
Things are moving along and I managed to buy my train tickets to go to Castelo Novo with ease at the station in Fundão, but I still need to get more practice at speaking Portuguese.
