Hey Portman,

I just gota bit more than one year to go and then I am going to retire from this. Cool job it is, but it lost some of it attractiveness over the years. After this I can say "In my previous life I was...". :D

Hope to meet you in one of the next tastings. I guess the Royal Airforce Club in London would be very suitable for this.

Look a bit like Vilha Velha, but I don't think that is it, the dock looks different in the pic. And there is what looks like railroad tracks going across it.

Sure, but only if it can be guaranteed that no parts of stommach content will be found in the cockpit afterwards.

Great sight. So the rain has changed into snow. Does this mean that we can skate on the Pinhao river?

Quinta do Noval?
