| Distinguished - BHPian   | Welcome aboard. You will find some fantastic information on the vintage and classic scene in India, be prepared to spend alot of time here. Dave (https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/membe...litscreen.html) might be able to find you one. A request though - please dont take it back with you when you leave India, we dont have enough left over, and Im sure you can easily find one in Florida.  |

| Hi Rehan, Thank you for your reply. Sarasota would have been a very tame venue or a spring break celebration. The readjust should be easy as I’ve spent most of my working career abroad in S.E. Asia, Africa, Europe and the Caribbean. Sarasota is where I come back to between gigs. Essentially where family is. I look forward very much to the India experience. I expect to arrive Goa towards the end of September. Cheers, Randy Quote:
Thank you so much for the advise. I knew none of this. You have probably saved me much trial-and tribulation. I confine my search to the Goa area for sure. Thank again, Randy Steed Quote:

| Hi GT and Dirty Dan. Yes, that Sarasota as in Sarasota, Florida. I’ll just have to get lucky in my search for a decent Beetle in the Goa area. Any leads are greatly appreciated. As for Aryuveda, yes I understand one must be aware of heavy metal content…not as in Metallica… And Dan…thanks for the heads-up on the shoe situation. I kind of figured that would be the case and budgeted in a couple new high end pairs. Unfortunately wearing a suit goes with my alter ego casino persona which requires those useless for anything else dress shoes…otherwise its flip flops and sandals. Cheers guys, Randy Quote:
Thank you for your kind welcome and also the link. I'll have a good look around there. Not to worry about my taking any classics out of the country. One of the big reasons I’ve taken the job in Goa is to scout out retirement possibilities. I've roamed the world working in casinos since the sixties and the time is rapidly approaching to hang my hat somewhere comfortable with good food, interesting culture and nice people. The USA never factored into my golden years plan...Or lack thereof... Regards, Randy I've roamed the wo Quote:
Yes, it's Sarasota, Florida. My old home town where I don't spend much time unless it's between jobs abroad. Thanks for the heads-upon the dodgy Ayurveda medicines that are about. I be careful. Thers's quit a bit in the news lately regarding heavy metal content. I'm excited about the emerging casino scene in Goa. Always nice to get in early. Have a great day, Randy Quote:
I won't miss the next one! Hope I have the wheels I looking for by then. Regards, Randy Quote:
Thank you for your kind welcome. Great to be here. I'm already enjoying it. Regards, Randy Quote:

| Hi Rehaan, Yes, chill describes Sarasota…expensive chill. I’ve been spending a lot of time in Miami myself lately in preparation for my move to Goa. Thanks for the link to the Goa in the rain pics. Cheers, Randy Quote:
