    I keep very busy, I sing in a choir and am a member of the International Ladies Group, plus looking after the Caldas da Rainha branch of the Greater Lisbon Chaplaincy (Anglican), we have a church service in English once a month. I have a good circle of supportive friends. We retired to Portugal 11 years ago from England. I used to arrange student educational visits staying with host families in the UK.
