For once I agree with you, the thought of tourists climbing on ropes tied to coconut trees -------- Perhaps the word coconutty is a good one?

The DJ and former TV presenter, most famous for his show Jim'll Fix It, passed away at his home in Leeds, two days shy of his 85th birthday. The former coal miner, who was knighted in 1990, ran 200 marathons for charity, raising more than £40million.

Goa: infested with wild dogs.
30 Oct. The Sunday Times (UK). Goa is infested with wild dogs. They live in packs on the beach, staying up late, taking a very casual attitude to relationships. You get a little nip here and there, a slight nick on the ankles. You don't die in 20 minutes but you do have to go to hospital for a rabies jab. And then spend the rest of the holiday wondering if the jab worked and whether that's froth or just a bit of toothpaste on the corner of your mouth

He also lived with and worshipped his Mum & during the petrol shortages in the 70's he bought the petrol station next door to the night club he owned in Bournemouth & closed it to the public.
