PROBLEM

Hi All
I have lost my Internet connection and it will take over a week to reconnect so I will continue to write the posts but I will publish them when we get home.

9th February

My birthday I had some nice cards and birthday wishes, anything by email that was just not words will have to wait until we get home as pictures etc. just locks everything up and the browser freezes.

We had a lovely meal in the evening, but managed to forget my camera. Ted and Lorraine both took some shots so we may have some thing later.

7th/8th February

Spent Tuesday on the beach and I overdid the Sun. I was most unwell Tuesday night. It took most of Wednesday to readjust my climate control and I did not go out wednesday evening.

4th February

I made Sand walk down to the beach today, after a couple of easy days, so far no real ill effects. I walked along the beach and took a few photos

We went to the Mermaid tonight for another western type meal with lots of wine, we just made it back home for last orders.

The early closing regulations are decimating the local economy, but as the majority of India is dry, what happens in Goa is obviously of little importance to the beaurocrats. However it makes a good topic of conversation.

2nd/3rd February

We have taken it easy these last 2 days to give Sands leg a bit of a rest.
