Hey shaz he's not a distant relative of my old man is he.
Actually he will kill me for that one, he didnt enjoy the bar as much as me,and he really did;nt appriciate how much fun it was taking the local buses instead of taxis :argue :argue

Jimbo, £300 quid, the hubby has just asked for confirmation of this price. He's asked did you mean three hundred quid or three hundred rupees. Now do you see what I have to put up with!
Lin, ah the local buses, what a must. Mapsa about 9 rupees Panjim out 16 rupees. We've even been to Palolim and Kerim beach by bus from Calangute. It's a long trip, but very enjoyable. Last time the kids on the bus gave us cake and in return we bought them water at one of the bus stops. Such good memories.

Last time we caught a bus i was the only one standing and i was the only female on the bus, i had to give my old man a seat as he had the hump because i'd made him get on the bus, i can't understand what the problem was i had saved him 992 :ghug rupees

Last year I broke my arm on the second day of my
3 week holiday in Goa. Foolishly I thought that this would make a difference when travelling by public transport. Don't be fooled if this happens to you. Coming back from Mapsa I thought I was going to get trampled on. There was a stampede when I tried to get off the bus. No-one was bothered that, a) I was a woman, or b) I was a woman in plaster. It was every man for himself, trying to get that empty seat.

Hi Chris

No this is our first time and we are really looking forward to it. I was really pleased to read one of your posts a few weeks ago saying you were going back and how much you enjoyed it, what a shame you are arriving and we are going would of been nice to of met up, perhaps we can wave at the airport. Stupid question but are the pool towels ok or should we bring our own any other tips would be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy your hols

We spent a fair bit of time organising our beach wedding. We had 100 invites printed with envelopes for 400 rupees ( we always get our buisness cards printed there too) We have booked Paulie the singer for a few hours, and a mobile disco whos profits go to animal rescue.
Catering will be supplying mutton & fish curries tandoori/garlic chicken roast beef, rice, potatoes, chips, samosas fruit salad icecream and a 3 tier cake there will of course be the obligatory fireworks.
During the ceremony a guitarist plays 5 songs, the hardest part for me will be not giggleing during the sermons, as they are slightly overly soppy with wording that could only be written in goa, as anyone who has read the local papers will understand.
But i am looking forward to it very much.
