Tony, I second your suggestion. Few years back, it was organised at Fort Aguada, Sinquerim and the guest speaker was Mr Tomazinho Cardoz. He was the "Speaker" of the Goa Legislative Assembly at the time.

The first person I saw when I entered the seating area was Goanetter Vivian A. (Socorrokar) A Lobo in a cap with "Goa Netter" written on it. For a moment I thought that Rico - sorry FN had organized caps for us all, but it was Vivian's own creation. Prominent among those present were former speaker Tomazinho Cardozo, Director of Education Dr, Celsa Pinto, Wendell Rodrigues and band master of yester years, amcho Moidecho ganv bhav, Micky Correia! FN has promised to post the full list of attendees. Though FN has done a wonderful job of organizing this meet, I have a few personal suggestions you are free to argue them or reject them: In future let us form a committee to organize the meeting. The meeting could take place in a small hall and we could have a theme for the meeting with a guest speaker. This could be followed by a brief discussion and some light entertainment. Today's performance by Rui Lobo was excellent. There could be refreshments. I do not think the netters would mind contributing towards snacks and beverages. Those who want to partake of spirits to put themselves in the mood could pay for their own poison. Souvenirs of the meet could also be given. I would like to suggest Cecil Pinto as one of the organizers. It was sad to see that some of the more active residen Netters prominent by their absence: I could name a few: Augusto Pinto, Albert D'Souza, ...... Thanks Frederick once again. -- Tony de Sa [email protected] M : +91 9975 162 897 Ph. : +91 832 2470 148 ^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v
