In Goa for the past three weeks. Haven't seen the sun for the past 6 days as its been raining everyday real crazy.
I wouldn't care much for the sun, but our clothes are not drying :( ... roaming around with wet clothes on ... not sure how Goans in Goa deal with this other than having lots of clothes. Thinking it would come handy, I had shipped an electric clothes dryer (LG brand) running on 240v from the US. The LG technician in Goa doesn't know anything on how to install it, as they do not sell the brand here. I got a IFB technician to try a hand at it, but the damn thing wouldn't start. I didn't know that IFB sells dryers in India, otherwise I would have not imported this thing. Could someone please set me up with a dryer techie who might have had experience dealing with imported dryers? Thanks, Jim F Colva. --- On Sat, 7/16/11, Gabe Menezes <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Gabe Menezes <[email protected]> > Subject: [Goanet] Rain wreaks havoc across Goa > To: "Goa's premiere mailing list, estb. 1994!" <[email protected]> > Date: Saturday, July 16, 2011, 4:30 PM > Rain wreaks havoc across GoaTNN | Jul > 17, 2011, 12.36am IST > PANAJI: Incessant rainfall accompanied by gusty winds, over > the last two > days, caused floods and wreaked havoc by uprooting trees, > damaging houses > and disrupting power supply across the state. > ... ... > Cansaulim village in Mormugao witnessed many areas > inundated with knee-high > water levels.
