Well, the Mediterranean workforce —explained in
Slovenia— seems to have a very strong capacity of
invading new territories. The type now grows in far too many countries and far too far away
from its original range. We have it reported from two islands of the archipelago already and
we hope that the authorities of the Republic can get it eradicated before it colonizes
all the islands.
Santo Antão is the westernmost island, separated from the
rest by a deep and wide channel. We, roadsign collectors, can only hope that this
Canal Sao Vicente is wide and deep enough in order to preserve the indigenous and delightfully old-fashioned
Men at Work signs still present on the island. Maybe the ferry service should be halted.
