I disagree....if someone is comfortable posting an edgy review, there are plenty others who are comfortable reading it....as evidenced by the view count on this thread. If it's uncomfortable for some to read because of the amount of info, then the solution is simple....quit reading them.Quote:

To me, it seems you did nothing more than spend some (or a lot) of your hard earned cash, and sounds as if you were generous with everyone along the way, in no way harming anyone. Some may not like to see in print the everyday runnings and realities of Negril, but you had to have struck a chord (and/or a nerve with many people). Sure, some things are understood, and maybe better left unwritten, but you didn't have all those folks reading your postings to check what you were having for breakfast. Enjoying yourself, spending money that is sorely needed in Jamaica, while treating people well along the way doesn't seem so bad to me.
:rolleyes:Pass the popcorn....theres gonna be a show,LOL
wooooiiiiiiii lol
the way yu spend ur vacation isnt for everyone . I wouldnt choose to spend my vacation the way yu did BUT I enjoyed reading your report . I couldnt stop reading it ! I was facinated! Wild ! Jamaica is what it is . Lots going on in that little country for sure .
Interesting comments to this thread.....
All the alcoholic hypocrites need to calm down.. #1 there are strippers and drugs EVERYWHERE in this world.. includin wasghington dc.. I enjoyed this report immensely.. I too don't see how someone who gets drunk can act all high and mighty to people who burn a spliff and relax.. I am headed to negril this winter for a couple weeks, and this report really has me stoked.. you go gerry
gerry made a lot of "friends"
that's for sure . . . in a short period of time . . .
As far as I know, Gerry is an adult. How he spends his vacation is his prerogative! As long as he's not hurting anyone, and all of the people involved consent to it, WHO CARES? You guys act like you know him. He's a complete stranger, an online poster who many of you will probably NEVER meet. Negative comments regarding his ACTUAL experience are the reason many negril.com boardies "censor" their trip-reports and give us a sugar-coated version. Too many judgemental views!
Looks like you had a lot of fun gerry, Glad you enjoyed your trip, And I know you were not describing the whole of Jamaican society in your trip report,You were writing from the view as a tourist in a small tourist area.It sounded lik eyou got around a bit and I checked in everyday to see what you were up to!I may go and have another read see if there are any good tips for me!
maybe not a good idea to post others personal info but nudge nudge wink wink i'm gonna be trying to hit someone up for a discount for the RIU! (joke!)
Hope seastar is the same lovely place as always the food you had there sounded lovely I am going to back now and re-read
BINGO!!! Couldn't have said it better myself.Quote:
