I'm off to Lisbon again for a week in June. I will be there at the time of the Santos Populares, and will be participating in a sardinhada. I will also be there on my birthday... and during the annual Lisbon book fair. It's the best time to be in Lisbon, as there is plenty going on. On another note, I notice in the news that Glasgow has emptied of R*****s supporters, who -- it would seem -- have all gone to Manchester to watch their team (hopefully) get soundly thrashed in tonight's UEFA Cup final against Zenit St Petersburg. Now would be the perfect time for the Glasgow city fathers to seal off the city! Heard a rather funny joke yesterday. Walter Smith (the R*****s manager) is in the dressing room before the game. He tells his players to hold back for 120 minutes and then to go for it! Boom! Boom!
