Thankfully our latest visitors finally sorted out their new flights but they had to fly to Faro which is about a five hour drive from Casa Sulo. Sadly though one half of the party was unable to make the journey - they decided, because one girl was pregnant, that it was too much stress to rebook flights, car hire, etc. and then take a five hour drive. But with true English grit the group who arrived were determined that the previous problems at Stansted airport did not spoil their holiday and although they still have to get back to work on Monday they arrived in holiday mood ready for the three children to jump straight into the pool - where they've been ever since.
We do have a complete disaster on the vegetable patch and all our tomatoes are going black and slimy before they ripen. So we have been forced to dig them all up and destroy them, but here in our area of Portugal no outdoor fires are allowed between May and October because of the real fear of forest fires. The butternut squashes though are like trifids making a bid for freedom and taking over the veg patch.
