Hi Ellie, hope you are okay. Poor-shez is how Vasco would say it too, and the 'lo' in 'lo-lay' is said like low. Hope I'm making sense, have just had a bottle of white Vida Nova, and very nice it was too, to go with my divine marinated pork steak from Blue Rock, while listening to my Mama Mia soundtrack cd!!

When we stayed there the taxi driver told us its "Moynos". The moy sounding like toy. Is that right?
