It seems ages since I was in Portugal, though in fact it was only in July. In the words of a little Portuguese phrase, “não faz mal”- it doesn’t really matter. Não faz mal is a bit like de nada in Spanish, but said with a Portuguese shrug of the shoulders, meaning “It’s ok!”
Portugal will still be there waiting for me, but I can’t help feeling a bit regretful. Autumn is a lovely time to be there. My walking group will be back in action after the Summer heat. So many things I miss.
My mind drifts back over times and places I’ve shared with you, and maybe some I haven’t. Like my favourite island Armona.

Grateful thanks to Julie Dawn Fox for inspiring my Personal A-Z series, and to Frizz, who always welcomes people to his world. The links will take you there.
