I was lounging on a beach at Porto Covo (still, mercifully, as antiquated as it ever was) when I received a letter from The Times's foreign editor, Louis Heren, offering me the Middle East. I felt like King Faisal being offered Iraq by Winston Churchill. "Good stories, lots of travel and sunshine," he promised me. So I took the next plane out of Lisbon and came back 33 years later to find a modern, liberal, happy country. I told Pedro that I would meet him again at his favourite restaurant, The Policeman. In 33 years' time.
