Eddie, Bernado Colaco aka Ole_Xac is not in the UK. He told us about 3 weeks ago that he played table tennis for his team in Macau. Refer to :
http://www.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet/2003-September/004673.html And no, he certainly is no jet-set Goenkar !! So, I would pour cold-cold water over his tall claims of communicating with Sainsbury. We would need to hear from reliable Goenkars living in the UK who can verify his claims. I have approached him over several weeks to verify a lot of his claims - always met with silence or more riddles. So even though his email address appears to give us the impression he lives in the UK, be aware that he uses CTM (http://www.ctm.net) to dial to the internet to send us his mischievous messages....... :-) Would you like more info about his CTM billing ?? ;-) Enjoy the xacuti from Sainsbury - courtesy of Ole Xac, reportedly !! - Bosco On Sun, 21 Sep 2003 16:52:10 +0100, Eddie Fernandes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > From: "Bernado Colaco" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > > May sound a bit retentive to a few but my contribution > > to Goa (with the help of Queen Leah)was to change the > > label of one of the largest Supermarkets in the UK > > called Sainsbury.
