      Se não tiver problemas venha me visitar qualquer hora. Só precisa me avisar antes, é que o coronel já é de casa você sabe… Pode ser que coincida de ele estar lá caso você vá sem avisar e isso pode criar um clima desagradável…
      If it’s not too much trouble, come visit me sometime. Just tell me first, because the colonel can come uninvited, you know… it could happen that you go without letting me know and he is there already, and this could create an awkward situation…
