Jim, what a typical venue! This is avenida de Boavista, is it not?
Also typical for a “Portuguese” workshop are the ... British speakers!
And you know why?
When Marques de Pombal chucked out the Jesuits, only your nationals were suitable look-alikes to take their place at that time.
Very naughty of me. I’m 100 points on that one.
If, as I’m pretty sure, Dirk Niepoort will be present, give him my regards and tell him we don’t meet often enough. I like the fellow very much (I’m not the only one).
Oh, one remark, are you allowed the future tense after “if”, in English?
