Dear friend,

“Se o poder político quer fazer esta discussão, o mínimo que se pode pedir é que assuma as consequências daquilo que diz. O Presidente acha que Macedo (former politician and now President of CGD), como Domingues (previous general manager of CGD), está exageradamente bem pago? "

Old rake

The stool of the life of my father's father settled on has three legs: food, sleep and sex.

Dear Fran,

As I know you want to go to this place, I send you a kind of diary which a friend of mine sent me not so long ago. I´d like to go to Northen of England too, but I´m afraid that my "crime" hasn´t been prescribed yet...

A fishing rod for Mr. Gonzalez

Every time Mr Hollande appears on TV my eyes fly to his long hair. And when he speaks on the radio I imagine his long and beautiful hair. I wonder how many euros…

Not long ago we were invited by a friend, Catarina, who promotes interesting trilhos and others activities, to do the initial part of the route that mestre Chico daily does from his house to pasture.

       How much you have to pay for a Casio F-91W watch? I´ll tell you: six pounds and you can be sure that the exact time can vary some seconds for years approximately; and you can trust its battery mechanism in.

     Do you believe in miracles? I do.

     I know it almost sounds old-fashioned, but that´s the way it is.

Act 1908

 At that time I was an ofender and as son as I went through that door I was labelled runner. According to the old Act 1908, all of us should reform our lifes, God willing, with sport and toil.
