Your mate sounds like a 'Pot' head.
I swirled the dregs in my glass like a Portuguese man making custard.
This made me laugh, even though I am not 100% a Portuguese man, just a man who has lived in Portugal for over 5 years now.
Loved/laughed over that Gladiator comment too haha!
Hahaha!! A Pot Head! Love it!
Them portugese love those tarts! :OD I have never had one, I must try one to see if they are all that they are cracked up to be!
I am not a big sugar fan - it makes me hyper and itchy, often gives me headaches - so I don't eat those pastries (bolos/pasteis/doces) often.
I guess every country needs to try something to turn people into addicts.
In Portugal it's sugar and alcohol that can be found in abundance and for cheap.
I wonder how the diabetes numbers are around here.
Everyone will be too drunk and high on sugar to check the levels of the population!
Alas only sugar is cheap here, everything else costs a fortune. It is becoming a hard country to live in
