Porto Factory Tour - 13/10/16


Recommended Posts

No, no diversion, in fact it's changed to a smilie that's not available to me. Difficult to explain by text but mine has up-facing curves for shut eyes (think of a cartoon seagull in the distance) and a mouth that's a filled in "D" rotated by 90 degrees so the D is facing down.  The replacement's eyes are "> <" and the mouth is a crescent moon.  It suggests a slightly less friendly emoticon to me and perhaps it's to do with varying international character/emoticon sets.

Black silk with small embroidered red roses for me please.

 

As for Emojis - these are dictated by the ISO for Emoji standards but your device will display whatever your software decides.

 

As an example, there is a new Emoji for a handgun. MS did use a toy cartoon gun to represent this but have now switched to the standard. Apple however have decided to use a green toy gun. So as you can imagine in some countries, one person saying they will bring their toy guns for a water pistol fight could be misconstrued by others that they have gone manic and when they arrive would be shot dead.

 

Emojis are very dangerous!

EZS7688 from Basel - I will have only hand luggage (probably my new Slicks back pack which I just got from a kickstarter campaign) :)

Ravi,

Correct me if I am wrong: bus or train, the journey to Porto is roughly 4 hours. And we'd have to go to a station first, probably in Lisbon; whereas it takes an hour by plane. There is a TAP flight around 11:00. There are other airlines shuttling between the two cities, so what about getting a return ticket together when we meet in Libon's airport?
