But almost detroyed all of Lisbon. So as you say Cusbar is another big due, Not yet I hope though.]]>

Spent a lovely evening in the Brothers Bar, and in Adega TiCosta. Tables well spread apart, mask wearing more visible than in the UK, but apart from that, the same genuinely warm welcome, and felt very safe and relaxed.<br />Love the fist to fist greeting which has replaced the usual handshake and kissing 👍🏼<br />]]>

We always had this cover when we owned, and it doesn't cost that much extra.</span></div><div><span style="line-height: 16.8px;">&nbsp;You can look at everyday &nbsp;seismic activity per region on &nbsp;</span>https://www.ipma.pt/en/index.html &nbsp;click on &nbsp;seismic link.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>BTW Cooknoe enjoy your stay at your place. &nbsp;Have a good one .</div>]]>

Oh Well, at least we’ve escaped from the UK 🇵🇹]]>
