Say asking about the bride's background after the honeymoon are we? Chu***** does comes from a 'good' family background. He was never educated which is why he joined the merchant navy. People attribute it to the his father who was a small-time football referee and a simple, nice man.
The people of Salcette are particular about backgrounds, by the way. C***hill was indeed the trawler-owner's assoc. boss and hung around the Vascu clock (tower).....trawler business in the 70s-80s did not do very well- you know bangda went @ Re 10-for-three, five in Bogmollo. He wasn't doing particularly well from what one remembers. He likely lucked out in the trawler biz when he came handy as a l*nding agent for a certain Goichi who is not allowed in the state. The rest is history/destiny/what ever you want to call it. This I must say for him: he used his earnings from the merchant navy and invested in a trawler way back then. So he was ambitious. The trawler owners are dominated by the fishfolk community (this is not nice to say) but anyone who owns a trawler can contest and the unwritten rule in the south is you have to be Goichi to own a trawler, no exceptions. Ofcourse, you gotta know the difference between a peto-shi, sheo-teo and bang-do. If you have missed the press conference y'tday, do watch...(being played by local teevee stations). Hilarious..sounded like a true squealing p*g....or the Chaplinesque figure called Eric Campbell (picture below)...the bit about the cameras, laptops and chiiiiips almost makes him sound like a tragedy king. http://silentladies.com/OSG31/Campbell03.jpg He can have his chips and eat it too now ya!!!
