Hi Paulo
I have only just seen your post and am sorry I could therefore not have
replied sooner.
I have to disagree with your view that I had misunderstood Constantino.
I had not assumed anything when I asked Constantino, most politely, and very
briefly, what he meant by Continental Portugal in his presentation? He could
have given me a simple answer and I would have been more than happy.
However, I got a 'mouthful' instead before I could even duck! So, where was
my misunderstanding in the first instance? I did not even have the time nor
opportunity to misunderstand Constantino! If in doubt, please read his first
reply to my very humble question.
I really would be very intrigued if you disagreed with the comment above.
Regards
Cornel

by other continental European countries. I see no problem with the
