Loved your story Edgar, brief though it was.
It had all the ingredients that make up a good tale. It takes you to the days when the true spirit of the land and the people prevailed. Humour whether intended or unintended, was deftly woven.
No matter whether a fictional or a story based on facts is written about Portuguese Goa, it perks me up, specially if it is well and simply written, like yours.
It is normal that our stories mostly involve the higher classes but I have no doubt that one written from the eyes of a mundcar, a toddytapper or a ramponcar (coastal fisherman) would be as fascinating.
Never having lived in Goa for more than 3 months tops, I appreciate such stories more than someone born and bred in Goa would.
