Today I saw...
I thought it was a game!
Anyhow two damned foxes tonight shooting out of my garden to the field (grave and chooks to protect), I also saw Binley and Mr Binley, James Wong, adoring fans and Coombe Abbey. Oh yes and a super moon - it's still there!

VVG is being silly


Yep,it goes past the front doors Bin's,I see they are dong a load of work down by the bus station,putting in breakwaters & then establishing a beach & sheltered swimming area

but does it go past the kapok tree?....

[bearded bloke]

Ohhhh,that's cunning,yes it does but the tree is on the big bridge by Read's & the branches don't reach over the road

So devious - wish I'd thought of it

[binley100]

I don't know what you mean .......cue innocent smiley

[veggiechicken]

Neither do I - but that's quite normal.....

[bearded bloke]

I have developed a plan which revolves around lunch & a bamboo stick also if I cannot reach the fruit of choice I have located a tree with lower fruit that can be got comparatively easily but they are not fully open yet

Fruit of choice is on the left,having shed it's shell & not yet lost the kapok the seeds are still trapped inside ..........

[veggiechicken]

Wish I was a fly on the wall for this.......

Ey up VC,did you ever to to "The English Pub" up near the Lido ? Was shut down a few years back & looking really sad now ..........

[veggiechicken]

Go to the English Pub - when abroad - pleeeeeeeez. No way!!! We did stay in a hotel near the Lido a couple of times though - can't remember what it was called - but there was a little restaurant - much like that one, where the door opened straight onto the main road. Took your life in your hands when you left
It was a good place to stay as you could walk into town or out to Camara de Lobos, along a footpath that ran behind the hotels. I'm walking those levadas in my mind right this minute

[bearded bloke]

There is a beach path from the Lido all the way through to Camaro de Lobos now VC,opened fully last March,or there is a levada that runs most of the way which has nice views & passes a lot of smallholdings help supply the farmers market ......



Some flowers ......

[veggiechicken]

It was the levada route, BB. past the banana groves. I remember my husband walking into a hand of bananas that overhung the path - he bled - I laughed
