The wonders of social networking sites! We facedbooked our kind friend and neighbour Snr Fernando and Fatima  to see if they would be in Mega between now and December and could check with Maria Rosa, our direct neighbour about the keys and if she would be at home on Boxing Day. As luck would have it someone was stayng at Snr Fernando's house and within a day we had a reply that they had spoken to Maria Rosa and yes she will be there on Boxng Day. As always we are indebted to our Portuguese friends. We are also very glad because without the keys we would have no access to our water supply, or to the garage for logs for the fire, or be able to turn on the gas supply. Phew, what a relief! I am also so glad that I had the foresight when we visited in July  to do endless trips into the forest with my niece for pine cones to use as kindling. The only down side is that our dear friends Barry and Julie will be back in the UK for Christmas/New Year.

Boxing Day Flight

Looking forward to being back in Mega Fundeira. We fly out from Luton to Lisbon on 26th Dec and will spend 6 days in Portugal. Flying back early on the 1st Jan 2014.
We are going there to check a couple of jobs a local builder has done. He was asked to put right some new plumbing connections that were wrongly installed when we had the last lot of work done.
This work is the last that is needed on the house, apart from some minor jobs, so from now on we can just relax when we are there and enjoy Mega.
We will miss the Chestnut Festival on the 17th Nov but we'll get to that another year.
Our only real concern is whether our neighbour will be at home on the 26th as she has our keys. She kindly let the builder in to do the work. The keys are not only for the front door but also for the water and gas. We should have taken note of her phone number.
A visit to Coimbra is planned. This is the third largest city in Portugal. And we want to see other major towns as we won't be sunbathing.

The house and land are looking very good. We now have a large gated parking area with a covered terrace and a BBQ. The land is looked after by Tiago who is doing a great job, always very tidy, it makes a huge difference.
