13.07.21 - Chegou a hora da onça beber água

Hallooooo,

Hope all is well, and that your Home Nations tour is going to plan - say hi to everyone from me! Over here we're working away on multiple fronts, including a website overhaul for a Sherlock acquaintance which is taking a lot more man hours than expected. On Saturday we went to São Paulo for the day to take care of assorted business, and say hi to Fernando in his new flat before he becomes a dad later this week. 

Then on Sunday we barbecued, before the inevitable penalty-shootout-fuelled ennui set in; Brazil and England losing two finals over consecutive evenings is some going! The one silver lining is that I won the Sherlock Comms office guess-the-results Copa America tournament, despite not watching any of the games and guessing/inputting all the results in about 5 minutes.

Elsewhere I've made another mixtape, and my phrase of the day was overheard in the crucial final stages of the Copa America, when one of the commentators on TV remarked that "it's time for the leopard to drink water". In leopard-free English, I believe the sport-themed equivalent is "squeaky bum time".

And on that note,
Speak soon!
