my embarrasing world cup day

after being thrashed by portugal on saturday and watching the game with portuguese friends, the streets went wild!

my office is on the main avenue of the town of lagos , after 2 hrs of the streets being blocked with celerbrating lunatics:- motorbikes doing burnouts, fire crackers going off, 10,000 people beeping their horns etc i decidede to face the music and pull out into the traffic with my ENGLISH registered car.....that was embarrasing enough until it broke down in the traffic and i had to get out and push...

the portuguese found this highly amusing...i didnt...anyways after struggling for 3 minutes the good old portuguese helped me push....

after half a mile i eventually found a parking space....much to the cheers of the portuguese....

things like this always happen to me....
