Photo - Sitting on the balcony with friends


Had a few friends around for dinner. The 2 ladies on the left, Marg and Jenny are Aussies. They had been travelling around India for 3 months with their other friend Badra, finishing off their travels in Agonda. The other 2 are a married couple, Flo who is German and Tracey who is Canadian. They had been travelling around Asia since February and were also finishing off their travels in Agonda. Don't know why I look like Bessie Bunter in the photo. Colin seems to have a knack of making me look like this in photos. Goa is the only place in India that you can buy beef . Not many restaurants sell it, and when they do it is very expensive, even though it is very cheap to buy at the butchers (£2 a kilo). So if you like eating beef you can have a craving for it if you are travelling around India. Colin therefore cooked Goan beef Vindaloo which everyone really enjoyed. He also cooked a Goan sausage stew (they are made of pork and taste like chorizo). Thge Austrailian ladies were completely bonkers. We called them the bag ladies because every time you seen them they had bags of stuff that they had bought, clothes, household goods and anything else that they could buy. They were frequently at the post office sending boxes home. They left last week and are sorely missed at Tina Beach Resort.
