Meeting others on the Silver Coast

[beverleyp]

Hi

My husband and I are in our fifties and we will be coming to the Silver Coast from the beginning of October for 6 months to see whether we would like to settle in Portugal. Would love to know about things we can join/things to do and to meet up with other English speaking people.

You will meet lots of people in Sao Martinho, there is a British cafe bar opening there very soon called Martinhos. There is the British shop at Tornada called Union Jacs. Lots of Brits meet up there and socialise, plus if you ever needs tradespeople they are all listed on their notice board.

Hi Beverley
We have just finnished our build but won't move out for a couple of years yet. there are two (maybe more) international clubs (a bit like the WI) which meet and go on lunches, walks etc as well as a dog walking club. The social life really is very good. Let me have your email and I will forward it on to Mary who knows everyone in SM !

Hi Beverley and ALL

Their are programs that trawl the Internet looking for ways to rip you of. By giving you email on open Forum only invites trouble, perhaps more so as you use a windows system.

Option one is send email by PM private message.

Option two is post the email address like this myemailaddress<at>whatever.com

All Forums get visited by what's called bots these are programs looking for information for there onwer. Try and make there life that bit more difficult. Do not use the @ in an email.

Hi All

I do not use a windows systems on any of my machine so i have less to worry about. It's so easy to find that your machine is full of problems that need sorting. A little care can help avoid future problems.

Please all take a little care with your email address. Do something like i have left below.
