that explains a lot! Β
rural Portugal (for me, having grown up in Lisbon, everywhere else in P Β is "rural") Β has got lots of interesting facettes

Eu gosta de campo. E vide rural e bem. But my Portguese sucks. I have been ill most of these ten years so I wasn't really up to the challenge learning the language well. I think now it's slowly improving but PT is now out of my reach. Very sad as life there was for me far supperior then up here in the North.

And thats something I have never done there, I have enjoyed everyday. And I have been sad many days to see how the influence of Brussel destroys more and more of that Portugal that I love most.Β

I just loved my chicken on the market from a nice little fire between a few stones. And now? Where have the markets gone? Nobody goes there anymore. Brussels has destroyed so much of Portugal that won't even be seen till in the next 2 or 3 decades its almost criminal.

yeahhh...instead of pursuing VW Β and the like for their life-destroying cars, they chose to pursue the last independent agriculture. LIDL & aldi & tesco and the like don't want to ever hear of nice poultry grown on a field without having been fed tons of chemicals, and the lobby did a fine work in Brussels

someday they'll manage to forbid azulejos, inventing some anti-hazard rules, so that everyone must buy plastic shit...

I am more afraid that they will further institutionalise the eucalitus industry and turn Portugal in a wasteland.
