OK, firstly my apologies for being absent without leave since April, but had a few interesting things happen, including changing companies ! which is where all my details we left on my old computer !!!
So here goes, I now am happily employed in Quinta do Lago still selling (or trying to!) villas here but now I work directly for the resort ! Tough times but it is for everyone. so onwards and upwards is the continuing plan.
Clare now on her yearly 4 month sabatical, her job only starts again in March, so shes planning our holidays as I write, but she doesn´t realise that our budget is around €70 and Bognor Regis is looking good this year ! She had a busy year as usual and is looking forward to a break. We are at the "outlaws" for Christmas in sunny Norfolk, still the good news normally there is NO shortage of turkey over there !!LOL (even though Uncle Bernard (Matthews) passed away recently!)
The Maxster is on top form as a recent visit to the UK confirmed (ask Nanny and Bottletop!), loving his golf, we played a "big" course for the first time for his 8th (YES 8th!) birthday. The International school is superb we hear only rave reviews from both Max and his teachers so he´s obviouslyt NOT taking from his parents on that front! Also liking his footy and is playing for a local academy here near home, twice a week.
Outside of that life continuing ! we have had a few weekends away (see photos above, that´s Porto) and I have had a couple of extra (semi work) orientated visits back home which is always nice.
I hope all branches of the tree are keeping well, again my apologies. Please drop me a line to catch up now and again.
Love to all,
Jamie Clare Max Jack Jessie Pablo and Kitty (I think that´s all!)

Good to catch up on all the Portugese side of the family tree! Our only recollection of Porto is a very fuzzy one of being gently inebriated before lunch time after a mid-morning visit to a couple of port bodegas...
I seem to think most memories of Portugal start off with a brandy, beer, or port so always a little fuzzy around the edges right! No wonder my bro is so laid back!! it's cuz he must be knocking them back!! H xx
