I have lots of guns (words), but I would swear I don't have enemies (I have friends).

The true 'portuense'* follows his/her own rules.

Something to amuse, as next week we will be celebrating Saint John’s night. It's a pity I can't use my plastic hammer or the garlic plant to poke people with it here

As a matter of fact... Jun 23, 2021

I miss many great friends and colleagues who I had the pleasure to meet during hard times.
I hope... To meet you all one day... Who knows?
My Saint John, celebrated today, will be a day to remember all of you.

That we will meet one day? You can jump on a plane to Valencia, or I can jump on a plane to Lisboa? Oporto?

Cute cats pics Jul 8, 2021

I don't want to see this thread die and since we all seem to love cats here, here's a photo of an obese cat:

Me too, I don't want it to be buried.
Here's Lucky again reviving the sunglasses fashion (please, no offence meant, Sadek!)

Better never wake sleeping dogs (general advice, nobody is addressed).

Kitties, yeah! Jul 8, 2021

Hi! I'm new here, but I saw some pictures of kitties, so I thought I'd add this picture a friend took of my girl Freyja having an existential crisis.

I created it in 2020 as a container for a lot of rubbish, emanating mostly from a couple of people who shall be nameless.

It has been working quite well, in the sense that I've never had to read it, except today.

So please feel free to continue. I will not be contributing.

My cat doesn't care either.
