Congratulations, having followed you since you began it’s great to see completion. You can now put your feet up and relax. I jest of course, well done. Please keep giving us the occasional update. PS I’m envious, it’s perishing cold here in Orkney!

I’ve enjoyed following your column for the last few years and quietly cheering you on from the sidelines. Your persistence and determination has been astonishing and I’ve looked forward to each instalment. Congratulations on what you have achieved. We lived near Cascais for 3.5 years and whilst we have travelled since, Portugal still has our hearts. We would love to come and visit - there’s a big birthday coming up in our family this year! Please get in touch.

All the best

Amanda C-S (currently North Devon, formerly Cascais!)
