Yesterday we were in a campsite near Porto, and there was another motorhome there - with a registration plate I didn't recognise.
It turned out that they were from South Korea!!!
And they had travelled to Europe across Russia, via Vladivostok.
Just... wow!!!

Today, I had the best cheese toastie of my life!
(And I've had a LOT of them!)
We were in a traditional Portuguese cafe in the northern city of Braga, and it was made with local Serra da Estrela sheep cheese and sourdough bread, grilled in butter.

It doesn't really show in the previous picture but, at this time of year, the vine leaves are turning brown - making the area feel more autumnal than anywhere else I've visited.
This picture gives a better idea.

The rain stopped for a couple of hours - allowing us to have lunch by the Douro river. 👍🏼

I replied 👇🏼to the original post by @newsagents.bsky.social advertising yesterday's podcast (the one where Jon and Emily revealed their bias against trans people).
That post has been taken down (thus hiding replies such as mine), and replaced by this thread.
Will they now take *this* post down? 🤷🏼

To go and "live on the farm", obvs.
I'm sure that any post which suggests that Farage should be 'put down' - however painlessly - could break BlueSky's moderation rules.
Wonder if wishing him the same fate at Prometheus is allowed?

Other than the weather, one of the things I love about living in Spain is the ever-present possibility of stumbling across a local fiesta.
But I wasn't ready for one of my neighbours holding a line-dancing party!

As a pensioner myself, I can't help wondering if I might "have an accident" in that situation.

Hasbara Alert!
A screenshot of two posts - one from a "non-zionist Jew", the other from a Palestine supporter - both with IDENTICAL text.
They are talking about a pro-gaza protest in Manchester.
Clearly trying to paint pro-Gaza Mancunians as heartless.
Block both accounts.

I'd heard this about Farage before (that he is a Belgian resident).
So I did a quick search.
While I couldn't find an article from a professional journalist making the claim, I DID find this 👇🏼 fact check which covers most of the claims about the fascist frog.
