1. Portuguese really aren't terrible drivers. Being English and ignorant I would just pop them in the box along with the Spanish, Turks, Greeks and French but everyone is pretty courteous and drive at a normal speed AND stop at pedestrian crossings. I'm probably the worst driver in Portugal right now (not difficult).
2. My name, Gemma, means the yolk of an egg.
3. The Portuguese have an even drier sense of humour than the Brits. Its hard to stomach. I went to reception and asked where I can get a cup of tea. She answered "No". Then after some persuasion she said "No you cannot have tea, you are not allowed any tea in the hotel". She was joking but I'm telling you, no one would have guessed. Hideous. I will have to work on this.
