So after a rainy week in old Blightly we arrived back in Pt last night around 8.30 pm in time to see the sunset over the airport with 26c, so different from a few hours later waiting for the flight at East Mids Airport, it was lashing down !!

 

Slipped out of the airport and drove West into the sunset on a quiet motorway, 30 mins later turned into the driveway to see the auto sprinklers have kept the grass and flowers well watered, the sun now making a blazing sky look on fire was so nice to see, the night crickets chirping away and the pool lights on making the rear garden a sit and relax haven.

 

Temp dropped to a comfortable 21c during the night, ac and fan on auto just in case, but awake this morning to blue sky`s and sunshine, 21c still at 6.00am, forecast 30c for later, breakfast by the pool right now, just seen one of our near Portuguese neighbours has dropped of a basket of fruit already at our main gate to welcome us back..... life is so different here.

 

So plans for today, breakfast by the pool, sunbath, swim, lunch, snooze, sunbath and swim. Clean the car ( in shade ) later go for a cruise down to the Marina and park up outside our favourite restaurant and have evening meal watching the sun go down reflecting in the water amidst the boats, fire up the V10 and cruise back to the villa for some shut eye, Friday ? well ditto really............oh and cannot wait for the weekend so I can have a rest ! lol

 

Actually Sunday is car show day so M6 going to get a detail over the next few days and hopefully get there early to secure a better position than last time, and then I guess I can have a rest next week...

 

So as per title the..... rain, its a British thing I know to brave it out whatever the weather but nahhh you can keep guys, I do hope though you get some good Z days with what is left of the UK Summer !!

Life is good Jeff. :cool3: How's Faro Airport coming along ? there was big queue's for people leaving the airport a few weeks ago with all the building work.

Very nice indeed, I'm in Hong Kong at mo and it is very hot & humid, drenched from a walk around the park lol. :pint:

Yes life is indeed good, Faro airport is undergoing a €32.8 million project to “expand and remodel” the terminal building, the work seems slow but with so many hoarding boards in place who knows, maybe the "big reveal" will be sooner than we think.

 

What its should look like when complete............. nice !
