Dear Rose,
Selma's book is excellent. I just read two more chapters. I would advise you to
start reading it, and buy copies for all your best friends. You seem like a
person who has many best friends both out of love and jealousy. My best to you.
Cheers,
Santosh

Dear Santosh
Contrary to how you think, you are now fast becoming my second best friend, the
first place was taken a long time ago by someone else who I sincerely have and
will always have the greatest fondness for.

Dear Rose,
I don't agree with anything you have written so far. I said someone, not
"someone else". That "someone" included me and the historian Christine
Nicholls. I already told you why I think Selma's book is well written and well
researched. If you disagree then please tell me why. I also w

Dear Rose,
As always, good to hear from you.
When we lived in London and when we traveled though that lovely city, Marks and

Yes, I am interested (not anxious) in knowing what happened to the talented

Can you please tell me why you are so bothered if someone says that Selma's

Xri Elecar is a slow reader because he spends loads of his time researching
anti Portuguese propaganda on the web for which he intends to archive for

If I can cast your mind back to the days when the Marks and Spencer shirt was a
"must have" item to take back to Goa, just like Cadbury's chocolates are today.
To tell you a story, it was known that if you bought a non-Marks and Spencer
shirt to gift to your relative in Goa, you would b

Santosh Helekar is the person who deserves high praise, if he says Selma's book
is "well-researched and well written", one has to presume that he has read it
from cover to cover including all research documents, if I may be so bold to
ask him did he attend speed reading clas
Selma's book is well-researched and well-written. She deserves nothing but high
praise. I thank her for sending a copy to me.

The more I read this book, the more I am convinced that very few of us from
East Africa could have come up with anything as well researched as this
historical opus.
If some feel we could, then why didn't we all these years?
