[Goanet] A special request to Joe UK bab

2013-03-12 Thread Melvyn Fernandes
Dear goanet readers

I read with interest of how Joe uk bab photographs have marketing appeal and in 
the case of Ana Maria what in theory looked like a tasty dish was in practice a 
stale fish dish.  Matters like this should be reported and dealt with centrally 
by the Government of Goa Health Ministry should the facility exist.  On 
arriving in Goa recently there is a traffic light at Dabolim airport 
permanently flickering on amber.   It was still flickering two weeks later.   
Surely there is someone in authority who can make a decision to fix it.   
Likewise a street lamp in Candolim that was faulty the night before was fixed 
the next day.  As you travel on the Mumbai highway from Mapusa passed the 
highway, passed the petrol pump and take the old road into Colvale that is in 
the district of Mapusa you cannot fail to notice a street lamp that is missing 
right opposite the electricity department.  The cables are joined mid air into 
a water bottle with a long life bulb.  An example of a job not done properly.  
Can I invite Joe uk bab to get a photograph of this.   This may answer why our 
people in Goa travel outside for medical treatment assuming that surgeons 
perform operations in a similar way.

Ana,
I agree with you. The fishy pictures JoeGoaUK sends will make any Goan fish 
lover go mad. 

Someone told me that fish are expensive in Goa because fishermen make lots of 
net profits. Then the person selling fish in Panjim market is not generous, 
because her business makes her sell-fish. Then the tourists overpay for fish 
and eat them every frydays. 

But do you know the most expensive fish? - It is GOLD fish. 
Here is a picture of GOLD fish on a barbecue that will not make you mad. No 
recheado, no onions, no rice no curry. 
Just expensive GOLD fish.

Please stop sending flicker photos of fish on goanets. When I see these photos 
I get mad. we can't get these fish on our plates. On seeing your photos I went 
to a hotel and ordered a rice plate. Though I would be eating a king fish 
orsomething like what our joe uk bab had shown and idiot gave me a small piece 
of mackeral and that too a tail of it and when i tasted it it was spoilt one. 
Mov zalelem. Paid 50 rupees for the plate.

Hello: I have a special request.  I would like to get in touch with an Aubrey 
Pereira who moved to Goa from Bombay some time in the 90s.  I lost contact with 
him when I moved to Vancouver, Canada in the 90's.  I am currently living near 
Seattle, Washington.  If anyone knows Aubrey, please provide him a copy of my 
email.  He was not a computer person when I knew him and I'm not sure if he 
uses email at all.   Thanking You
