Thanks for the pics and the descriptions Rajan-bab. I never had the occasion to witness a single Zatra - my loss. And were it not for my determination one summer to devote my entire holiday to visit the major temples in Goa - a real not cursory visit at each one - I would have been more the

Is there any recent record of a coconut falling on the head of someone below, specially at such a time. Is it kaput for the unfortunate person or is the coconut drop relatively benign. Roland. Toronto. > On Jul 2, 2020, at 2:54 PM, Frederick Noronha > wrote: > > A rainy, windy night here.

[Goanet] The Diamond Princess

An inside story of the Diamond Princess from the time it unexpectedly got infected to the time it was evacuated. A scary recounting of the passengers and crews lives at a time when the world was not acquainted with Covid-19. At the best of times a cruise is not the safest place to be if you

Re: [Goanet] Red Light, Red Alert

A lovely phrase: bible thumpers, which got me to spending a "happy" hour imaging different versions having their own thump! I mean the one I have: Douay Rheims, the KJV, and a few others, including the Kristupurana. This may elicit a chuckle and be easily misread, but that is nothing if chuckles

[Goanet] Fwd: The World’s Best Chivda

Curtailing the duration of the ensuing Monsoon session of the Goa Legislative Assembly is a very wrong move and does not augur well in the framework of democracy. Besides the current Pandemic, Goa is grappling with so many very serious issues and the Legislative Assembly is the proper forum for
