Everything began getting a phone call

Vse se je začelo s telefonskim klicem Katarine.
»Janez, ali bi šli Veterani na turnejo na Portugalsko?«
»Kakšno Portugalsko, mal' več mi povej!?«, sem odgovoril.

Tudo começou com uma chamada que recebi da Katarina.
"Janez, gostarias de ir a Portugal com os Oldtimers?"
"Que Portugal, diz-me mais, por favor!?" respondi.

Everything began getting a phone call by Katarina.
»Janez, would Oldtimers go on tour in Portugal?«
»What about Portugal, tell me more, please!?« I answered.

Dear Mr. president
Mr.Marko asked me if we could go on your festival. I told him that it is interested for us. The only problem could be if we should have at the same time another festival. I am sending you a picture. If you need i can send you also our video as soon you will send me your address. Next year we have 10 years of 'Old timers group', some of our dancers began to dance folklore 50 year ago.
Other details about our group : Till now the group has participated in international festivals in Austria, Italy, Russia, Czech Republic, Germany, Slovenia and Egypt. The group is performing dances from Gorenjska, Koroška, Ribnica, Istria, and Bela Krajina. For each of these districts the group has different costumes. The musical accompaniment is tipical Alpine (accordions, clarinets, violins, and double bass).
As it's very late date for your festival, please send us as soon as possible all details about festival by email and a contract. You'll get our answer in few days.

best regards
Janez, the president of Oldtimers
