Re: Lisbon trams

Pick pocketing happens in almost all major cities and specially in places where tourists go, so you must double your attention and take some extra care when on public transportation.

Just because you have the provision of 4G does not mean you are getting a good quality speed/signal. You need to do a speed test http://www.speedtest.net
You can use the speedtest from PT. (The speedtest runs on JAVA so you might need to allow java to run)

Re: Sexual Assaults on young girls 2004 to 2010

The fact that it's taken the British police to establish some kind of link to this person, years after the Madeline McCann disappearance, tells its own story in my view. Some v naive comments on here; people trying to protect their rentals. A large percentage of assaults and the like against childr...

Re: EDP electric meter box location and EDP limiter

EDP have an electric meter box that does remote readings. I'm not sure they can be installed everywhere or in just parts of the country. It is called Inovgrid - Smart Energy Grid. There is a manual that explains how it works, but it is in portuguese thow. http://www.inovcity.pt/pt/Manual/M_EDP_BOX_S...

Re: GNR at Roundabouts

Trouble is, you go in the left hand lane and then have to cut across the driver that used the right. I've noticed most drivers keep to the right. That is why sometimes there are stupid accidents in roundabouts. Drivers circle the hole way on the right. If you are exiting the first exit then stick t...
