I think you'll find that the hunting season is closed during spring and early summer as the birds are nesting and breeding.

I can't do Thursdays Geoff - Portuguese lessons.

So sorry we will be missing out on all of these since we arrive on 27th and leave on 12th June.
If anyone organises anything during this time can you post a note.

Enjoy your rambles in the meantime. Louise & John
