Hey! Turns out the crazy-uncle character actually is the crazy uncle. (I had thought his name was Cheo or Chio, but he was being called tio.) My older sister brought over a girl (young woman) who I think I gathered was from Pollonia, though I never gathered why she was there or what relationship she had to anyone present. In any case, her arrival resulted in crazy-uncle doing a magic trick which involved disappearing a plastic bag and pulling it out of his mouth. It was impressive enough that I, at least, could not detect his method...and even if wasn't technically perfect magic, it still shows the dedication required to have a plastic bag in one's mouth. Respect.
