			<description>There is a ladies coffee mornign held in Ansiao every month, on the 1st Tuesday. It is a very informal affair, we chat swap books/magazines and generally find out what is going on around the area.

I also take AVON brochures and samples, so anyone can have a look at them.



Anyone can take things to sell, the only thing they ask is for a donation towards the charity fund (which I understand will go to Ansiao Bombeiros).

It will be nice to have a choice and I hope it's as good as the other one !    </description>

			<description>Hello. 

I am just saying hello as I am new to the forum. I am June and my husband is Geoff. We live near Ansiao, in a village called  Pereira and we moved here on December 1st and its been very interesting so far. We love being in the country, our house is finished and I have started a  small veg plot  and am loving it all. Currently doing language course in Alvaiazere 4 nights a week and its really time consuming as you would imagine but enjoying meeting others and having a laugh.   </description>

Anyone living in the Alvaiazere area who is interested I sell individual pies for 1,50 euro or 4 for 5 euro. So far I have made Chicken &amp; Pork, and Steak &amp; Kidney. I have been asked for Meat &amp; Potato, so they will be next and I might do a vegetarian option if there is enough interest.  ...</description>
