Dear Goanet,
It's very sad , i recall visiting A Nau several times
, We should all come together and help Nalini to keep
the shop going as this shop was unique in its own way
, the real meaning of friendship should have it's
significance now during this testing time for Nalini.

Plenty of people in Goa read the GT and its editorials. IMHO, this is
