Nice guy from Chelsea......

[Southern Scouse]

Having driven down to Putney from Peterborough to collect an old desk only to find that it was big to go into my car, the wife and I decided to pop into a Brazilian restaurant nearby called Preto (Black). Anyway after stuffing myself daft and supping my expresso thinking of the journey I was alerted to some youngster screaming and kicking off while his dad was trying to calm him down.
Then as the littlun made a break for it I grabbed him, picked him up and took him back to his mum and dad. To my amazement I realised it was Oscar and his missus Ludmilla and we started off chatting away in Portuguese. He was sitting there in trainers, shorts and t-shirt. Anyway he was so down to earth, bought me a beer and we chatted for about 15 minutes. No body guards, no agents just a young lad and an old fart talking about howgood the food was and my time in Brazil.
Real pleasure in this day and age to meet a really nice lad who loves football, but puts his family and his manners above. Kept calling me sir, made my day.
Btw didn't get a photo, but hey ho!

That is one mad, spooky, crazy coincidence. I also had an espresso today.

Do most Spaniards have good Portugese?

Wish I could say the same but I did meet my neighbour's dog, Oscar, while going to the shops

Different Oscar I think.

 

[GingerBeerMan]

Oscar the Chelsea midfielder?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Always like to hear stories like this - Ie not all prem footballers are arrogant twats

 

[Simon Morgan]

Love stories like this. Oscar is also a very underrated player for Chelsea, especially this season's incarnation.

 

[Gwylan]

Was I the only person expecting this story to end with Oscar having a van and driving the OP back to Peterborough?

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

If you hadn't called it an EXPRESSO I'd have been happy for you...

 

[Goldstone1976]

And there was me thinking that PIG's wife isn't called Ludmilla. Was Oscar eating a cold pudding, perchance?

Chelsea Oscar.

 

[Lethargic]

But what happened to the desk, did he help you wedge it in the car?

 

[maltaseagull]

Do most Spaniards have good Portugese?

Oscar, is a Brazilian

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Oscar, is a Brazilian

It had already been explained that I was thinking of a different person. I'm not that au fait with Chelsea players.

The moral of the story......................... you need a roof rack.

 

[Southern Scouse]

The desk dilemma continues. The seller, with big Swedish all terrain vehicle quoted me £65 to deliver to darkest Peterborough! Then mysteriously they pulled out after me agreeing to the said extortionate rate. Having searched through various man and van adds as well as biting my nails awaiting replays fron Shipley my desk remains in SW13.
No doubt the saga will continue ........

 

[Westdene Seagull]

I'm even more surprised that there's a Scouser that can speak Portuguese.
