Christmas In In Lisbon

Christmas in Lisbon (1974) The day before Christmas the Atlantic was in a frenzy it was with relief when we turned starboard and met the softer water of Tagus. We birthed far from town, on a double Decker Bus I had bumpy drive into town. I good meal and wine, just sting sitting there reading newspapers. Rang my wife to hear a friendly voice, she asked if I was drunk since I sounded so chirpy. Put down the phone Drank some more wine and aimlessly walked about. Picked up an cushy prostitute, needed a warm body next to mine, In the morning I took a taxi back and a new long, laborious shipboard day began.
