Yeah....I do recall all those great songs, Annette! It amuses me now to hear my 18-year old listening to some of the music (heavily revamped, of course!) that I enjoyed in my own youth!

I dont know where all the other animals like the goats, cows, bulls & buffaloes got to! But I do know that the pig population diminished when many Saliganvkars started building their simple or hi fi toilets with flush, septic tanks & the like. Patsy, do you at least remember the song - Those were the days my friend - played at every jam session (that means weekly during month of May) at the Saligao Institute in the 1970's. Hmm! Memories linger on.... It is our weekend - a hot one I guess in terms of weather. Another swine flu death registered here & 3 patients are critical...considering that Bahrain is a small Island....well! Nowadays nobody want to visit the hospitals even if they are sick with other ailments just in case they contract the swine flu germ...huh! DR. Dilip - any more breakthroughs or tips that you can afford us? Any news about "The Missing CM?" hmm! Reminds me of the Perry Mason cases - Breaking News on NDTV - they must have read a lot of Perry Masons during their young days.......as I did. Have a good day!
