    Default G'Day all from Portugal

    Retired, well actually, unemployed Pom living in Cabecudo (translates as bighead), Central Portugal. Doing up what was a ruin. I'll try and post some pics of what I've been doing. I used to be a toolmaker so my attempts at woodworking have all been self taught. They look all right from a distance!
    I've already got some good info from these forums. It's amazing when you know what you're doing, thanks anyway.
    When this place is done up, I'll have what I've always wanted---- a nice workshop! The other half should be happy too.
    Anybody over here on hols, drop me a line, you'll be more than welcome. The beer here isn't bad either.

    G'day! Would love to see pics of your place. I nearly went to Portugal once to do some pottery. Are you near the pottery area?

    Hi Redebo, welcome, was in Portugal in 2007 for a roundtrip, had a very nice time and fun in Lisboa in a dancing hall with young Brazilians, for sure I'm coming back.

    G'Day all, again,
    Tea Lady--------We're a bit remote and the pottery here is a bit primitive, hope I don't upset anybody.
    Ed Reiss--------You'll like the beer.
    Ad de Crom----At your age!!!!!
    Munruben-------When I learn how to attach photos they'll be on their way.
