Speaker 1 (00:00):
Wanting to you this morning, Hugh as well. How are
you has your weather in Visio this morning? Okay, let's
have a look at that first news item this morning.
Then this isn't exactly hot off the press. It came
out earlier in the year, and I think it might
have been while the show was having a little sleep.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
No, I think we were back on air.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
But I missed this and I saw a lovely mention
of it from the lovely lady who is my beautiful
country on ex formerly Twitter, and this is about TAP
being the safest airline in Europe, which is good to know.
I know TAP gets a bit of stick from time
to time, as in TAP stands for taking other plane however,
(00:42):
good reason to fly.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
Tap moves up to eleventh.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Place in the world ranking, so it's risen there in
the world ranking of safety. In twenty twenty five, Tap
reclaims its place as Europe's safest airline in the top
twenty five of the world's safest carriers drawn up by
Airline Ratings. And this is from their own press at
tapair Portugal dot com the twenty five and I think
(01:04):
this is interesting as well to see who the who
the they're not. I guess we shouldn't see it so
much as a competition as yes, as a ranking. And
I'll see if your favorite airlines are in the twenty
five safest airlines in the world.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
For twenty five are.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
In order in number one at number one, Air New
Zealand's quin ass is number two, Cathay, Pacific, Katar Airways
and Emirates. They are the three Xiquo apparently. I don't
know what that means, but they must be part of
the same group. There four Virgin Australia, the five ETIAD Airways,
(01:40):
six Ana never heard of them?
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Anna, is that Australian National Airways something like that?
Speaker 1 (01:45):
EVA Air at number seven? Eight Korean air How many
of these of you flown? Nine Alaska Airlines.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
They must have to.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Deal with a lot of cold weather conditions, They're right,
each of these airlines having a specialty. I suppose when
Turkish Airlines ty and at eleventh tap Air, followed closely
by Hawaiian Airlines. And I was thinking there's not many
American airlines in there, are there? But they come in
at thirteen American airlines as in the name of and
(02:15):
we've got United at twenty three and Delta at twenty one.
And interestingly, I think all of these airlines do have
pet names should we call them pet names or nicknames,
which are a little bit of a passive aggression towards
towards them from some customers on some occasions. But world
on tap on being the safest in Europe and at
eleventh safest in the world. It doesn't say how many airlines.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
There are all together in the world there, does it? Anyway?
Eleventh out of.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
What I wonder, very wet, cold, wendy morning here in
the southeast of England. Well, I'm sorry to hear that, gentleman,
unless you like it that way, but that seems to
be the way of things. And you know, do you
know how hard it is to find out like a
general news item on what's going on with the weather?
At the moment, I realize that I get a lot
of my news from X because I like to be
able to search for the topic that I'm interested in,
(03:07):
and then I hope I've chosen a range of people
who will approach it from different angles among.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
My you know, likes and preferences on Twitter.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
And I was thinking, there's bound to be something about
the weather in there or it usually comes under the
name of the storm, doesn't it that's currently ravaging a
part of Europe? There's certainly that's the bit that I'm
looking at most often. Nothing today, and maybe that's because
there's always seems to be a storm now every week,
your weekly storm. I mean, they do obviously vary in intensity,
(03:40):
and this one at the moment, and I can't it
was a Spanish name possibly, And I've see I've got
a red triangle. It's a bit like the news crying
wolf as well, isn't it? You know we are I
don't know if the threshold has been changed such that
what should be getting our attention in the news has
(04:01):
been lowered significantly.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
But I'm seeing a wind warning this morning, and I'll
have a look at the weather now.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Then let's go see what's happening with the weather in
our own estimation here, shall we? So there you go,
well done, tap, and let's have a look see what
the weather's doing on our good morning Portugal Spartan EFS weather.
It's gonna call them Spartan FM. Then what great I do?
Speaker 2 (04:25):
That would be? What? What?
Speaker 1 (04:26):
What is the first track you'd be likely to hear
on Spartan FM, Money Marne and money must be must
be funny in a rich man's world?
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Are those the lyrics? I should know them. I sang
them on stage once.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Right, let's have a look at our very own website
where we're still celebrating green and Red Monday.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
It's still green and Red Monday.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Funny enough, Yes, right here, if you're in Portugal, you
are experiencing green and Red Monday morning job on the
Apple you go from as well the North as well. Yeah,
your colleagues up there in the North. I've gone even
further north and we'll find out how they're doing. That'll
be Bob and Viva, and if you can't speak to
them directly, we'll get a lovely slideshow of their time
(05:07):
up there in Edinburgh. At the very least, I thought
it was hilarious when Bob was explaining to the Nando's
staff that they lived only minutes really away from Barcelosh,
where they're where the Nando's mascot comes from.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
The staff are like, what are you talking about?
Speaker 1 (05:25):
They had no idea what he was talking about, which
must have been an interesting moment for Bob and Viv.
It doesn't matter. I'll just have me chicken and chili sauce, please,
bondiapasada from JMC. How are you doing, JMC?
Speaker 2 (05:40):
What's up? John?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Do I need to pick up the pace or is
that just how you're feeling this morning? Huge rainfall fifty
six millimeters in the light. Is that sort of morning?
Isn't it really is morning? John, sleepy head? Huge rainfall
fifty six millimeters in the last twenty four hours. My goodness,
that means fifty six liters of rain in one square meter.
(06:01):
The river is raging. That's not a metaphor. He's got
a river. Have you got a couple of rivers meeting.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
At the at the bottom of your garden there? Yes,
of course, threshush.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Three rivers right there, and they are well, we guess
they're all raging right now. Okay, let's have a look
at this weather then, and we're going to go to
our weather page. You can see this at good Morning
Portugal dot com forward slash weather, where you can get
your free copy of the Moving Money to Portugal guide.
What's happening as Trump changed the currency very much for
(06:39):
those of you who keep an eye on that. As
the the inauguration and second term of Trump really change
things very much currently, or is he not? Has he
not rattled his saber in that department just yet? Seventeen
degrees in Lisbon will be the high today. It's currently
sixteen and a rainy day. They been looking at this
(07:01):
seventh week for the last a week and it's been
rain forecast us for some way into the future. Definitely
not a sunny day yesterday on my tally, I must
have changed that again on my tally we had a
good run of days with sunshine.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Definitely none yesterday.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
It was quite the wet and windy day here in Leria,
and with sun returning at the.
Speaker 2 (07:20):

degrees with scattered clouds. The high today are fifteen and
the temperature dropping tomorrow to twelve, coming back up again
for Friday, where it may well be sunny. Up there
in the North Combra thirteen degrees currently overcast with clouds

this morning eighteen degrees. The high today currently seventeen and
Braga eleven degrees currently overcast with clouds rising to forty
excuse me me, and it will be eleven, eleven, ten
and fifteen until Friday fifteen, bringing sunshine on Friday the
(08:06):
end of the week.
Speaker 2 (08:07):

Speaker 1 (08:08):
Similarly, as I scroll down, we are looking at sunshine returning.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Towards the end of the week.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
Is the overall estimation here for Portugal and then briefly
on the autonomous regions on the islands on the Archapellagoes.
Sixteen degrees the high today for the assortache Mark Ladlemeyer.
It was lovely to hear from you on Facebook, who
lives over there in the Azoras, and I think has
a fabulous guest house if you're looking to stay with
(08:35):
a gumper over in the Azoras.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
The wonderful Mark Ladlemyer is over there.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
Sixteen degrees raining in the Assorus and as far as
the eye can see, I think until Sunday it's still
going to be cloudy, but not raining, at least a
bit of a respite from the rain. My data currently
eight degrees will rise to sixteen.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
That's a nice rise. Who doesn't like a nice rise?
Speaker 1 (08:57):
First thing in the morning and Tuesday sun returning earlier then.

Barrack in Central and Phil on the Silver Coast.

Kings were having a leaving do and it was lovely
to give your proper send off the Kings.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Some of you here, I think as you are and Nessa.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
You may remember Leaf and Susan their attorney to the
United States soon and we wish you all the best
to you both. Wow, yesterday was buckets of sugar. Buckets
of sugar. That sounds like I was thinking this morning,
what are there any wine ninjas here? What wine are
we doing on the first Monday of February. Buckets of shuva,
(10:01):
buckets of vimeo. Sounds like we already did that, though
didn't we We did? Wine boxes was the last one we did.
I think it was What did we decide to do
for the first Monday of February. Does anyone remember jmc
bregar abatata?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
What does that mean?
Speaker 1 (10:17):
I look like a potato pa abatat Do you know
what I might need to I can't cut on paste
from comments, JMC. Let me know what that means. And
we've also got we'll do a little bit of lingo.
Speaker 2 (10:27):
Maybe you can help us GMC. This morning, there there
go the three hundred days.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
No, not yet, who sold it? Made buckets of money?
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Stop it? Are you another three hundred days? Cynic?
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I wonder talking about Portuguese culture, I seem to have
rattled the cultural cage with my video of well, first
of all, asking people the right way to eat pashe
del donata. It was this, This was the picture that
started it all that flashed across social media about a
week ago. I decided to try it my self and
(11:01):
it was a fairly popular video, I have to say.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Of oozing custard running down my hands.
Speaker 1 (11:08):
And then I'm getting messages, messages coming in as well,
telling me I think I prefer the stuffing in me
gob way and if I stop that, if I stop
the ticket tape for a moment, here on the ball
the adaily ahead of James Wo's joining us in about
five minutes. Apparently you are an auntie from cash Geish,
(11:30):
though not you, James, You're an auntie from somewhere else.
So you know, I think apparently you are an auntie
from cash GUIs if you eat it like that. And
I can see the tears of cash Geis eating a
pasta they.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
Have pash desh.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And actually nobody's corrected me on that yet, because I've
been calling them pash Del's pash Del's donata in a
very English way, and of course they should be pashtsh
in the plural.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
I'm getting the nod from James, right, So there you go.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
That's the way the Tears, the Kashish eat their paschetel donatas,
and most of the Dream Team town hall panel. And
it would appear, and I think I'll have to write
about that in the Portugal Resident this week. It would
appear the country is torn and divided. What how is
the country divided over eating? Long way it continue that
(12:22):
that'd be the worst problem this country has, is arguing
over the best way to eat a pastel donata.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
So there you go.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
How do you eat yours? Do you like to spoon?
I'm getting the feeling. A lot of Portuguese people do
like to spoon, they just don't like to admit it necessarily, right, Ah,
Bondie your Daily deal, thank you very much. I was
thinking to myself, why didn't I do this before? A
deal for you every day of some kind?
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Isn't that a great idea to share with you? A deal?
Speaker 1 (12:52):
And we had clean shell Water kicking things off with
a five percent off service packages over at Portugal the
Place on Friday, and this we continue with green and
red Monday, of course, and good news or is it?
What do you think of this your bond your Daily
deal today? Something I saw in inter Marsha yesterday. Now
(13:13):
I want one of these coffee machines, and and the
Gretathenburg inside me recoils at the idea of creating loads
of plastic waste and I and I still want one,
and I just don't know that. Stop it, James, I
still want one. And I saw this deal yesterday. There's
a time and a place for these. They're already made.
(13:35):
All the coffee is already made, isn't it then those
plastic pots, all these machines are made. And one of
them is currently on sale the inter marshes own brand Porci.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
Here you go, there's a bit of language for you.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
For you Porsi now theyre presos. They're low price is
every day low prices at Into Marches Porsi. They have
got a coffee machine here, talk about a daily deal.
Thirty one euros and ninety centimosh of your danaio there
(14:06):
and you get not only do you get the machine
for that, you get one hundred and twenty eight capsules,
which by my mathematics makes the coffee. I mean, how
many days would that last year? If you have two
coffee shots a day, that's two months of coffee for
thirty two euros. We still haven't got a name. Colin
(14:26):
was joking when he said the nickname for the euro
is the deutsch Mark. I think that's hilarious, but it's
it's not what you say, is it like quids or bucks?
Why has the euro not got a nickname anyway? But
for nearly thirty two of them, you're getting a coffee machine,
one hundred and twenty eight capsules, which is twenty five
cents a cup.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Folks, that is a daily deal.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
If ever I saw, and I'll be very surprised if
there's any of those left. It might even be one
of those deals where we think that's too cheap, there
must be something wrong with that, And I think that's
a good deal if you're on holiday, isn't it? By
one of those at the start of your holiday and
you've got coffee at twenty t another thing to boast
about about being in Portugal. Hey, hey, look at this
lovely hot, lovely Well it should be sunny out there,
(15:07):
but it's wet and windy at the moment.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
But I'm getting a cup of coffee for twenty five cents.
Speaker 1 (15:12):
Of each time, each shot in your holiday apartment when
you're playing cards all day because it's raining at the moment.
But I think that's quite extraordinary, almost disposable, you might say,
at which point James will shake his head again. Right,
so there's your BONDI daily deal.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
Right then. I'm not sure we're going to hear from.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Bob and Viv this morning, are we, Because I think
they're on the move and we will be moving. Oh,
it's twenty past. It is time to let him out.
I was going to say, bring him onto the screen,
the beast that is James.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Just a quickie. Then this is wants to ask you.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
We're having our little phrases, which I think are quite helpful,
great phrases to chuck into your vocabulary and your interactions.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Javis, I've seen it.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Didn't get a chance to turn my avatar into saying this,
but JMC, is this right?
Speaker 2 (16:01):
And I think this is what a.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Shop assistant said to me the other day as he
took me to the back of the shop to exchange
my keyboard and mouse, which I'm now using. Your VIO
come with me. I mean he's saying go with me,
but VI comego?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Is that correct? And should we be using that? Scholars
of Portuguese?
Speaker 1 (16:18):
I think your wellbeing news is going to have to
be well being for your wallet this morning, because it's
time to bring which is the twenty five cents a
coffee deal. It's time to bring James on
