The Mayor of Funchal, Dr Miguel Albuquerque arrives in Jersey to sign the twinning agreement with the St Helier Constable Simon Crowcroft.


The first Madeiran man arrived in Jersey in 1937 or 1938 and since then Jersey has had very strong connections with the Portuguese community who come here to work.


There is a walkabout with a meet and greet.



























Back to the town hall for speeches, a signing then a welcome lunch.




















The Twinning agreement is finally signed.














Fado.
