Lisbon Light

In Lisbon, at friends' beautiful flat (they are in N Ireland), trying to decide whether to go out and walk in Lisbon's beautiful light, or stay in and peruse their fascinating library... have you seen a poetry anthology for men, called The Rag and Bone Shop of the Heart? looks good, and so many others...

Julia's gone out looking for milk, so we can have a cup of tea, and then we're walking to the Altice Arena for a Tribalistas concert, her birthday treat, should be good. Marisa Monte was one of the first MPB singers I fell for in Brazil, when Julia was the age our grandson is now. This new album is far more politically committed, so apt since second round of Brazilian elections is a week today.
