Hi!
Oh god..the board went a wee bit pear shaped over the weekend.My laptop went on strike too!
Anyway onwards and upwards!
What makes you "laff" when you think of your first newbie experiences in Jamaica?
Now I know some of you are lucky enough to go way back(I would love to hear more about Jamaica in the late sixties/early seventies)
No such luck for me....!
Here's some of my "happy lickle memories"..around 2003..and remember life is for living..everything is an experience!
Taking part in an "Open mike" sing off in Kendal inna "country"!Yes mi!(and mi backing singers!Local stylee!
Again ... I look around...hey its okay....im" jus" starting out here.....no one knew me.Oh Lawd! White rum mek mi brave!
"Bike gate!"
Oh isn't Orange Hill and the road beyond lovely?"Tek time"
Ah the freedom of the open road.A local friend borrowing his friends bike.Woah ..quite a powerful bike too!
I know "nuttin" much about bikes..but I do know you need a helmet!
Na Miss....Mi na wear "elmet".So i dont have one either.
(Sensible head now a la 2011....says No Way!....but seems like a long time ago!)
Off we go!"Breeze in mi hair"...This is fun.....Oh no!Neighbourhood watch!White jeep coming!
Oh God!Mi Sorry. "you mus learn rules pon di road!".
(OOps because i was sooooo niave then and believed "we ok" up in the hills outta Negril!
Lesson learned then!
Water lock off? No problem mon......up in Good Hope.....nothing wrong with an outdoor Hose pipe shower!Fun..and I mean it!!!!
Hair straighteners "died" as i was getting ready to go to Jungle late at night.No problem mon.Mi auntie says mi must help you "iron" your hair!
Is it real????Yes!!!!!!Im from west Scotland...not too many wig shops there!
What are you doing......ah ok ......mi hair done!!!!!!!
Losing my loveliest, highest pair of shoes in Ochi!Kicked them off to dance and they went a walking!!!!!!!!!!
It is "betta" to live...than never live at all!
Respect
