Status quo on shacks to continue
HERALD REPORTER
PANJIM, NOV 27
The status quo ordered by the Supreme Court over allotment of beach shacks will continue for few more days now.
According to information reaching here from New Delhi, the matter fixed for today will now be taken up on December 4.

I was originally sceptical about the stories that big money/hotels were involved in this, but in just a few weeks they have got a hearing before the Supreme Court - some serious cases take decades to get that far!

According to someone on "Hormonal Troubles", they are flat out building shacks on Candolim stretch with extra labour involved to get it done quick, following permission by their MLA.
Any thoughts on this?

Staines is also famous as the home of Ali G, and his famous "Staines Massive", the first of his films being set in and around the town.
As you probably know, despite portraying a "British Asian" he is actually Jewish, Sacha Baren Cohen being his real name, and Staines has always had a largish Jewish community.
Noni,
Not sure who you are referring to on HT? Being very careful what I say at present.

Always happy to oblige Hem, but I actually called it Candolinium, as in the "Roman" place names, However, much prefer Candylinoleum. A bit topical as my nearest town (whilst staying with Dad) was the home of "the" Linoleum factory, commemorated by the statue shown here;

I'm glad to hear that S2 is open, I always find that a nice shack to use as well. The two guys who own it are decent too - they don't scam people for a start !.!
Is Ankush the masseur still there - one of the few in Goa who has actually properly qualified as a masseur.
The huts you can stay in overnight there are nice as well, very clean and with en suite
Glad to hear you had a great day there.
Dread - liking some good news
