        that cat looks kind of a freak. I would rather go for a tiger, an iguana or one of these...

            Back to the original post ... we bought a 'bolthole' on the hillside of River Arade looking at Silves with views over the wetlands where storks and flamingos meet, and hoopoes and little owls sit and twitter or whatever. It's only 30 minutes away but different than where we are. Here is a sneak preview from the back ...

              Very interesting, Claire. This guy sounded very much like the corrupt man we bought our apartment from on the Isle of Wight! I hope too many people didn't get taken in by him ... and I certainly made the right decision! Off for an early supper tonight with the man we are buying from, sale planned for next week.

              Looks an interesting purchase, Victoria :dbgrtmb:. We wish you many years of enjoyment visiting there :)

              Are they sure that cat isn't one of Sarafi's family? :scratch:
