Hallooooo,
Hope all well. I'm ill again, but soldiering on with all sorts of work- and flat-related shenanigans nonetheless. Gabi has been firing on all cylinders too, flying to Goiania and back over the weekend to give a lecture and then having the family round for Mother's Day on Sunday.
No compilation this week, but my phrase of the week is the last of the ones I picked up in Ouro Preto - "ficar a ver navios", or "waiting to see ships", means to not get what you expected, and allegedly comes from the Portuguese fruitlessly expecting to see their ships coming back from Brazil, as the gold trade waned. So there's that!
Speak soon,
Frod x
