Martin, as you sat for 30 minutes and watched two guys not being
very productive, you were not being very productive yourself.
It is not very fair to make a general statement like that.
When I see all the highway and building construction going on in
Portugal I could hardly consider the portuguese as being lazy.

I would have thought it was obvious - but isn't the punchline . . .
"Sat . . . office window . . . watched . . . 30 minutes"

According to a recent article in BBC news, April 16ths, headline reads,
PORTUGAL-LAZIEST NATION IN EUROPE. To further quote said
article it says "research is officially the laziest nation, with the UK ranked
tenth, out of the 15 member states, according to a study".
OK you Portuguese and Brit's are you going to take this laying down?

What a hurtful thing to say about me, "out of the woodwork".
Just because I critized the local drivers, must I be chastised
forever.
There must be someone out there who would show me some
compassion.
Remember, to err is human, but to forgive is divine.
Poruguese are lazy!

I forgive you Sam (hope youre not so sad)
But you probably will not want to hear this from "me"---am I still an enemy?
Anyway--glad youre out of your Monchique cave-- nice to see you back.
Hows the driving going?
