Men's shirts short skirts, oh-oh-oh-oh.

Last weekend I made my first trip outside London - or should I say the first of my trips?. I went to Dublin, Ireland, with my Brazilian friend Mariana, and there I met some Brazilian friends - I actually didn't speak too much English there. So you might be asking the reason for this title if it's in Scotland that they use skirts, not in Ireland, isn't it? Yes, but what happened is that without knowing, I choose to travel in the same date of a Rugby match between Ireland and Scotland. So, a city that use to be quite, was completely crowded of Scottish people - plus tourists with no idea about what was happening.

Rugby is the national sport there. For those that have no idea what Rugby is, enjoy me. It seems like an American football with no protection. It's really rude. And the players really, really big. Well, I watched the match with my friends in a pub, where everyone (I mean, every-Irish-one), was drinking Guinnes. Even though I was understanding nothing about the game, I became glad because the winner was Ireland - I was there anyway. But the day after, when Mariana and myself went to a walk around the city, there was so many men in skirt that I wasn't sure anymore about who had won. Specially when I saw one guy, looking like an Irish, unawake at a door, that probably wasn't his. But someone would say that it was the only usual image of that weekend.

God Bless the Queen! He's Alive!

Fred Mercury is alive and wearing normal cloths he can't be seen by all those busy people in the train! This is Northern Line and I think he's going to Camden Town to buy some huge platform boots

What they say about Buenos Aires

Sometimes I do babysitting jobs for some friends of my boss, when she doesn't need me to stay with her children.

There's one home when I really like do work. There are two boys, 7 and 9 years old. The older is very polite - more than any adult Brazilian that I know.

The father doesn't talk, but the mother is very nice and treat me very well. And the first time I went to their house I saw many books and one, specially, got my attention. A Portuguese Dictionary. It's fabulous. Cause most of English people has a Spanish and a french dictionary, but not Portuguese. I was so glad to see it just because one week before, I had worked for another family, and the the following questions were asked to me:

- Where are you from?

- Brazil

- Oh! Nice! So do you speak Spanish?

But she, at least is English. What about a Brazilian girl, about 18 years old, good financial position, that didn't know that Brasilia it the capital of her country? She spent all her life, in Brazil, believing that Sao Paulo is the one. And she just found out because someone, not Brazilian, asked her about and she had to call a friend. I wouldn't be surprised if she, instead Portuguese, spoke Spanish.

Useless though

One probable reason why women get fat when they move to another country, and men loose weight is that to supply men's lack, God invented whores. For women's lack, chocolate.
