14.12.21 - Cantou vitória antes da hora

Halloooo,

Hope all well and you had a whizzy jolly pre-Christmas time in England! Very much enjoyed the photos, and will happily contribute to a Powys Christmas single if that's still in the works. 

Over here we've been holding it together as the Xmas break looms ever closer, and first myself then Gaby succumbed to a pretty nasty cold. At the weekend we went to Aldeia da Serra for Bruna's parents annual pre-Xmas barbeque (my first in years, because of Covid and ill-fated European business trips), which was the usual maelstrom of food, drink and weird animatronic Christmas decorations, marred by one of the +1's misreading the room and getting extremely drunk and disorderly overnight.

Since then we've been entertaining the neighbourhood stray kids as they're on holiday, and preparing for a trip to São Paulo next weekend; I've made a new compilation; and my phrase of the day ("singing 'victory' ahead of time") is a cautionary tale for anyone counting their chickens before they hatch, as far as I can tell.

Speak soon!
Fred Guardian
