Not sure if it says on the livescores or drawsheet anywhere, but these Qualies for Faro are actually being played in Vale do Lobo. Wanted to stay and watch Bruce Strachan but he was last on, so decided to head for home early. I should be sacked from my job as a roving reporter 

Mind you, you obviously left 'good vibes' . . . . compared to the guys in Turkey, this bunch of quali results is positively blessed.

Drive carefully, if you're still out there, Bob. Put your feet up, if your nice and safe at home now. :)
