We're home after ten days of glory in beautiful Portugal, with stopovers in England. Mrs. Payne the older, also known as Grandy - Mr. Payne's mum - lives on the Algarve. She has everything one could possibly wish for on a holiday; pools, a hammock, a cabana, a huge garden and play area, horses, fruit trees and a vegetable garden - and our very own apartment to live in. It doesn't get any better in my book!
