I will tell you all about the NO Plan no problem dinner party tomorrow and upload all of my photographs too as I have a party I gotzta get to:D
I got no money and no ride only some Pounds sterling so this will be an adventure already.I NEED MONEY AND A RIDE WORLD! Hotel said they got no money ??
Front desk said ask bar - bar said ask front desk.I got a room call like a full blast alarm phone ring in the childrens bedroom when they were sleeping to come pay my 4 dollar bill:D I was not going to leave the country just yet for one sausage and small fries!
What channel is reggae TV? I have yet to turn on a TV in Jamaica, so please excuse my ignorance.
no, i meant your immediate family, i must have misread what you said . . . i realize now that you are not including your family in your travels through negril as you refer to being and walking alone . . .Quote:

so what has happened to our infamous Tic Toc........no word from her pon da rock today
Cool Runnings, Marko
I am anxiously awaiting pics and stories from last night too. Tic Toc posted on Facebook that she & Bert were out last night and that she was going to update her trip report this evening. :cool:
Hello I have been having a ball a blast a fun filled time.
I will start with telling you all how the NO PLAN NO PROBLEM dinner party went at The Seastar inn on Monday.
I was running late I had been out all day so arrived at my hotel at 3.30pm the Seastar bus was due to come get me at 3.15pm but I forgot to call them I just wrote it on this board and nobody saw it but I did not know,
I thought they had been and I missed them so I quickly threw on some leggings and a dress top jumped in a minibus and went with the family to The Seastar Inn.I got there around 4.15pm party was supposed to begin at 4pm SHARP LOL but I was fashionably late to my own dinner party!
I could not believe I was late to my own dinner party and I was thinking I bet they are all sat there wondering where the heck I am so you can imagine my jaw drop and shock horror when the minibus pulled in and no - one was there OMG
Where the hell are you all?OMG OMG OMG
One man just one single man was sat at the bar - please be a boardie please be a boardie why has no-one come?
So I said hi are you a boardie !
So he said yes it was Midiri/fud
so we had a quick chat and still no-one else came.about 5 minutes later, the longest 5 minutes of my life everyone started to turn up!
Patty and Kopper were there
Rob and Lisa
Glenna and her husband
Captd and family
Midiri
Jasmin
Bert
Cindy and her friend
Tom H
There was a couple there who I know the faces of and wanted to meet them and I have totally forgotten their boardie names and I never really got chance to speak as I thought we were all going to Coral seas Monday party afterwards but not everybody came so if you read this and it was you hello and sorry for being rude and did not get a chance to chat.
There were some other boardies there too but I am rubbish with names.
So we all arrived and everyone enjoyed happy hour 241 drinks soon we were all chatting and drinking.I was on rum from 4pm until 4am more about that later.
Most of us ordered dinner there,Dinner was good , the children went and played pool and on the free computer and internet and Chris put on some really good music.I really liked the music that night and I forgot to tell him, Good choice.
We stayed until about 7 or 8pm I think it was and I jumped in Rob and Lisas car with Jasmin and we headed out to Coral seas for the Monday night reggae show that the band HIYAH GRADE put on.
More boardies followed
The show was nice it was very good some good singers and the band played really well.
Swallow sang he is a singer in Negril I have heard him sing lots of times and he is very good.There were a couple of other singers who were very good also but I never caught their names and I was drinking and dancing and hardly even took any photographs
So Bert was showing me and Jasmin how to tango or salsa he was spinning us around.We had fun!
Frankie the trumpet player was down there and then Anthony Able sang quite a few songs.
So more spinning dancing and drinking.I have gone rum crazy since being here and I am taking a break from rum to write this! I have a bottle of iced water here right now.So hopefully everyone will start showing up at the Monday night events it was a nice evening I wish I would have taken some swimwear to have a swim too maybe I will next week..and the week after that and maybe the week after that
:D
You are my heroine ( lady hero not the drug not sure of the spelling)
Boardie Patty brought me a present a sarong it was so cute of her to do that .
Yay I got a present it turned out to be a great blessing as the dress and leggings I threw on made my big belly look really weird and fat so it was a great cover up Thanks Patty!
I told you I would get some good Karma back from the other day when I gave some cash to the guy with bad leg.
Came just when I needed it!
You know I love my freebies so was quite happy on Monday when I was greeted with FREE rum thanks Chris
my FREE present sarong that I loved
Free ride to the Coral seas garden Thanks Rob
FREE ENTRY
Then when the night had ended (officially) Some of us stayed and re-opened the party un officially! I think I had more free stuff but I was too drunk to remember!
I am so used to getting everything FREE that after we all had dinner at seastar I started to head to Robs car for the party, thought the nice lady barstaff was coming to say goodbye for a second until it dawned on me I had not even paid my bill!
It is a good job they know me I did not do it on purpose.She was really nice about it and the bill was very cheap and we all had dinner and enjoyed it.I was very happy with my bill amount.
I found a real bargain at the supermarket opposite burger king near the cambio.Curried chicken and vegetables a full tray for 250j got us a tray each and there was more than enough.Threw it all in a big pot to fry it .It was really nice.Attachment 6428
Tuesday I went to bed at 5am got up with the kids shortly after and we all managed to get ourselves to Fun Holiday Beach Resort for the webcast, We had some fun in the pool there but I went and ordered some crazy cocktail some banana something orange yellow and green and cannot remember the rest but it did not agree with me after the night before.
I managed to make it up to Sun beach bar because that is where us boardies said we would go hang out and Rob was bringing Lisa but as soon as I got there I started to feel queezy.I guess swinging lots in the fun swinging chairs did not help matters so before I knew it it seemed like the sky was spinning.Quite a few boardies were there and I wanted to party but I was feeling ill and it was not until Rob pointed out that I was hanging on to a fence with one finger through a hole clinging on for dear life because I thought I would fall off the earth.Met crybaby and a lovely boardie couple who come all the time and it is annoying because I have forgot their name someone tell me.
Cameback to the hotel and immediately put my pyjamas on and thought this is it my jetlag day but then I remembered Bert saying he was going to Alfreds and I posted on the board asking who was going and when nobody replied I was a bit bothered that I did not want Bertie partying there all alone.So I had a problem because I had no money and no ride.I had money but not changed.
So you will laugh at this part I know I am just too cheeky!
The security guard here at my hotel was sat near the gate so I asked what time was he working until so he said 7am so I said ohh do you have money? meaning for his taxi home so he said yes so I asked could I have it I need a ride and need taxi money - pay him back later:D
He said sure but when I went back to my room to get my purse I found 400j in there so did not need it afterall.
So rum punch it is then!
Someone who worked there was saying I could go in there with him FREE but I thought he was one of the hey pretty lady men so declined his offer then paid 500j in at the gate and saw boardie bertie had been given a freebie:eek:
How very dare they LOL
The show was cool and then me and Bertie hit scrub a dub to be continued
For those who are wondering.I am here with my family but I am just telling you about the getting out and bout parts as telling you real life family stuff may bore you a little but trust me it is all happening!Arguing over food at 5am our first morning who was going to eat what and how and such.They are food mad my children.
They have loved the beach and the swimming pool here.Said we will have a good swim tomorrow and watch the sun go down .
Excuse me, photographs and more writing has been up for an hour where is my feedback :D

HEY PRECIOUS,
This little rock star is heading home :( There was way too much to do this this time and hardly got to spend time with you~ You take care sweet cheeks..my job is calling.....Andy sends his love ...ill catch up with you back on here when im back home, stay safe, have fun ..lots of pictures :D
Oh no we will really miss you both you was very fun and I will treasure my sarong.We all missed you at the Jungle lastnight the place was packed out some crazy dancing going on.Safe trip home if I do not see you :)
I cannot remember what the heck I did on Wednesday, I briefly stopped by Roots bamboo they had a band playing in the daytime that was good then went to do some grocery shoping and went to the cambio.I seriously cannot remember what I did.
Woke up very early Thursday morning and I remember being stood mesmerized staring at the ocean.It was roaring LOUD but was warm and clear it was unusual it looked good for body boarding.
I stood staring for ages just listening to the waves and letting them go over my feet and then playing a game of resistance with the waves seeing if they could knock me over.They could not I win!
Sunbathed for a little time and wondered how party boy Bertie was doing and wondered if I would see Tom and also was thinking about what Patty is doing.
I took my laptop and the kids to Travellers Beach resort to use the wifi which works beach front as I wanted to do a live web chat with my parents so my mum could see the beach as she has never been to Jamaica, While I was there who strolls up?
Bertie boy came to see me yay
So we sit and chat and Bert spoke to my parents and probably shocked them LOL
say no more
We then all came back to my hotel and Neville the patty man walks by so we grab a handful and have a good munching session on them.You know how long I have been waiting for the day I see Neville again?Too long!
So I order a couple of pina coladas from Shields bar and sometimes they are very sickly when I have tried them elsewhere but these were really delicious and with cute little cherries in and something low priced like 350j for 2 of them
Me and Bert decided we would go for a swim , well after he and my son had been climbing a tree!
So we went back to travellers beach resort and my husband came too.
It started to really pour down hard with rain but I did not care I am in Jamaica.I got the man there to switch on the waterfall and went in the little cave and did a few laps.It was raining for quite a long time and Bert and my husband decided to just sit and chat over a cold one.So we decided we would go to canoe bar even though I keep saying I need to take things easy for at least 3 weeks because of my almost zero budget , is it possible for there to be a belowzero one? As I would say that is where I am heading!
I told Bert and my husband that I would get dressed and we would head down in a taxi and there is Tom H ,Hey Tom H !
Everyone just pops up round here when you think about them!
So the boys had some beers Tom had to leave eventually and did not make canoe.
When we got to canoe the place started to get packed , Georgia was on great form and I had a good dance with her, The rum punches were good
Must ask her today did I finish paying my bill
At home when I used to socialise a lot I am used to just everything being free for me .We do not pay in anywhere and I am given all my drinks so once I get drunk here I sometimes have to be reminded aherm Tic you need to P.A.Y LOL
(Mi don't like paying ha ! )
Paying is so out of fashion LOL
So the steel pan band was there and the band made it a really good night.The place was full of boardies the band had a drummer with it Ricky? Not sure how to spell it you will see him on the pics he was really good.
They had cute coloured Christmas lights on a tree (Which me and Midiri climbed for some drunken reason!)
I found a big conch shell and washed it off but I do not think I am allowed to bring it home.Someone tried to sell me one earlier in the day for 20 dollars so I was happy when I found one FREE!
It is my new breakfast ornament.I can look at it under my palm tree at breakfast.So yeah Canoe was really good I was impressed everyone had fun and Kirby said they are getting new lighting next weeks so the webcast and photographs should turn out brighter.It was fun put it on your to do list.
Me and Georgia was dancing and Bert and Midiri had a quick turn too!
After Canoe I said I would go to the hotel for a few hours before the Jungle as my husband only stayed at Canoe for 20 minutes so I thought I would go back and see him and maybe put a dress on or something but hey we are in Jamaica no time for changing of clothes so we head in a cab to the Jungle and pick Husband up on the way.Midiri said he would meet us there at 10pm
He was not there, enjoyed cussing him for ten minutes LOL sorry Midiri Jasmin was there so we said HEY! and after I finished cussing Midiri he walks in and says HEY!! HAHA he said have you been calling me names I said yes course LOL
So now we were all here.Me husband Bert and Midiri I was hoping Patty would show up .
Things were quiet at first then the place got absolutely heaving, packed great dancehall party some crazy xxx rated dancing going on I do not know why they played no dutty panty dancehall song as most women from what I saw not that you had to look were NOT wearing any LOL
Quite a few (loads) working ladies so one walks over and waves to me and says HI!
And she said to my husband I know her from scrubadub LOL
Did I even get round to telling him about there yet?
The place was hopping.
Ladies got in FREE
As the pina coladas started at 1pm then canoe rum punches and then on to jb at the jungle by 3.45am I had enough I was propping up the bar so we left but WHERE THE BOYS GOING?get in the taxi why they walking real fast up the street?Hey boys I am shouting they were gone fast LOL
So we jumped in a taxi to follow them men!
Found them having a gander at triple x to see what it was all about so I stomped in only saw one girl must be early so I said are you coming in the taxi?
You staying or you going
So they stayed
So DARE let me hear today I dragged them out LOL
They stayed up later than me lastnight.
Got to sleep at 5.30 am woke up at 7am with the children.Already Jasmin was asking about LTU Pull up fridays tonight.MI CYAN MANAGE where is my jet lag day?
Well never say never I guess.
Photographs of the day the legal ones I am allowed to show LOL
I was not going to say anything but because I am here for a long time I will say something.
Women Quit Biartching and backbiting.
STOP IT
There are palm trees here blue skies blue warm sea, coral reef lots of rum bars and fun people and fun things to do and if all you can find to do is sit with a face like you are chewing a wasp and chatting everyones business then you might aswell have stayed home.There is so much to enjoy here.Women tourists and long stayers/ living here boardies from wherever on the web all catting against each other.It is NOT nice it is NOT clever.It is awful and no way to spend a vacation.I have had to say twice now to different females I don't want to know you should tell THEM (what they think of them) Instead of telling everyone else EXCEPT them
It is really simple if you do not like someone just walk up and say I don't want to be near you because xyz and move on , grow up and get a life.Never in my life before have I met females on the attack for what seems to me to be no apparent reason.
This is quite a large number of females I am talking about.
So if I talk to you please do not tell me who xyz is sleeping with or how much money she has/has not in the bank or if she has correct visas or passport or where they shop It is NOT my business I do not care and it's no-one elses business either so either support each other and have fun GO HARD OR GO HOME!
Stunning beautiful place I cannot understand why someone would want to sit here picking apart someone elses life who they do not even know nothing about.Enjoy your holidays girlies and take care of each other.Thankfully I have met some really nice females this trip.But for the catting get to the bar get some rum spit out the wasps and have fun!
Incredible report, incredible pics, especially from the beach. Nice pair, by the way (the drinks!), lol ....
Loving that you are enjoying every minute of your vacation. But, let me get this straight people go all the way to Jamaica to gossip? :eek:
The one's usually gossiping have a bus load of skeletons in the closet. :p
