What was your house like when they left?
Don't know yet as they leave on Thursday!
I did pick up the euros this afternoon as planned. They treated it as if doing me a big favor... and then complained that they hadn't a clue what to do for the next few days. I ran through a grand range of options to which they all responded with a rather blank stare. Husbands seemed most interested in keeping the wives from shopping; wives seemed most interested in shopping.
One thing they did agree upon: great frustrated that all the local butchers were closed on Monday and they couldn't have a BBQ tonight. I sent them to a normal supermarket so that, if nothing else, their Lisbon BBQ has been salvaged.
