Remember the days in Goa when the village barber made the rounds to everyone’s 
house just like the morning baker and the woman with the fish basket later on 
in the morning?

There was also the knife-sharpener, the pots and pans refurbisher, the tailor, 
and the flower vendor selling stuff to freshen up the chapel or the altar in 
the home?

Rejoice, for those times are coming back again. There’s money to be made with 
the help of cellphones, by astute businessmen who start up these village 
services professionally and even franchise them to great benefit.

Like fashion, vending methods go around and come back again.
