We are villa owners and visit every month with the exception of July and August.

We have owned our current property since 1995 but have been visiting Carvoeiro and renting since 1983. We are planning on moving permanently to Cvo at the end of this year, early next - banks permitting.

No my dear....if you are true to your alter-ego, you will retire to a select genteel ladies retirement home in Edinburgh.
Far more suitable surely?

Bruce, this may have suited the Miss Brodie of the thirties but not this Miss Brodie of the noughties.
