Any one lost a raccoon, one just walked past the kitchen 10 minutes ago. Didn't look too bothered. Rocha brava area just in case there are many, many out there

If anything unusual was seen could have been a mongoose or civet cat both now native to Portugal.

Looked them both up, not either
Going for raccoon because of the very full ringlet tail. Nose to tail was around 2 and a half feet, must be some ones pet

I've been told the red is extremely good for me so I am trying to work myself up to a case a day, haven't got as far as the night yet

Didn't understand any of that, I think you may have the wrong Ron. Uncannily accurate on the wine though

I can finally confirm I am not going mad, The Missus saw it last night sauntering by the kitchen but this time in front of the garden light and described it exactly the way I saw it

I believe you Ron. As well as burglars there is all sort of wild life around at night. While returning from an evening at the Lagoa theatre I came across a wild boar running down a residental road near ADM. I dont drink or smoke anything and it was witnessed by a sober passenger.
