Re: Repatriation of money

I checked with our accountant before we sold and we have no CGT to pay. Our allowances cover it. He assured me that we could also claim the cost of trips out to sell and associated expenses. All our...

Re: Goodbye Goa

Re: Goodbye Goa

Goodbye Goa

Re: 3 month visa for Brits????

Given that this would cause further large decreases in the numbers of European tourists visiting Goa and other parts of India, it seems almost certain that they will bring this in. Following the...

Re: Is it worth having your deeds.

DJ. Did you get all of your money back then? I think that if we got back what we had spent then we would almost certainly cut our losses. If you lost money what percentage did you lose, or di you...

Re: Good Resturants this Season

I cannot say that I have ever heard anyone say a good word about the Spice Garden, it is usually empty any time I pass and that speaks for itself. I too like Rising Waves but in the past have had...

Re: WHAT ARE C FORMS?

Re: ATMS

Never had to pay commission in Goa on TC's. That is certainly what I will be using this year. I will still take my Nationwide card in case my wife manages to sneak in to the jewellers though.
