<PRE>Obrigado Telma, mas sem problema.
O "Rei dos Caletos" tem "Home delivery" so I order plenty of chicken.
By end of the week I am sure I wil be able to walk to the supermarket,
thank god I still have the crutches (moletas).
Stefan comes to Recife 3. de Outubro and stays for 3 weeks.
By then I must be totally OK. (Mais ou menos ;-) )
