Far too many funster here;)

So far, in 3 days, we have spent far too little on far too much booze, spent far too much on far too little food, got 2 sprained ankles and 2 broken toes, one grazed knee, and the pharmacy is out of stock of crutches and now @sherrif has found 2 cases of cider he didn't know he had!!!

Back to Silves tomorrow - much more civilised :whistle:

What has jackie done?

Hmmmm, where do I start!!!!
Let's just say the worst if it was getting bowled over by some rather large waves, and causing her to fall awkwardly and bend her foot and toes which were stuck in the soft sand - ouch!
( of course I didn't laugh and was full of sympathy......)

Mike's got tooth problems and 20amp fuse blowing in his van and Brenda due to her Alzheimer has forgotten you and rose already. Sorry .
Got 5days of pills left and then back on the road again. Being on a site this long is doing my head in. Couldn't stay here till april like mike even with a car.
Might head up to guarda way as there are some people I want to see again on the way.
The Algarve aire in Silves keeps going from half to full every couple of days. Just had 6 massive vans of swedish motorhomers move out yesterday it sounded like a sketch from Sesame street ( the chef I think) Found it hard to keep a straight face See you back in UK later
