TiCtOc pon di rock LIVE AND DIRECT **TRIP REPORT** On a Zero budget.

[TiCtOc]

I am at our families house in Montego Bay for the time being, the weather is gorgeous it is very HOT and sunny, there was rain for about 40 minutes late yesterday afternoon, Brilliant sunbathing weather, I have wifi in my own bedroom here it is lovely and I get up and wash my things in the outdoor sink in the morning and hang them out to dry which only takes about an hour it is lovely to be in the sun! There is a washing machine here but I find it easier and quicker to just rinse them through and hang them out.I dyed over my grey hair with a hair dye I boughta t megamart in montego bay , it is very dark but at least the grey is gone.I was very wary of washing the dye out as there is lovely pink frilly accessories all over the bathroom and I was scared to death to get hair dye on anything so that outdoor sink sure came in handy .I went out there to do it! I am hoping to get my nails done today and shortly go near Falmouth.Got a big bag of food last night from Megamart cooked food which was reasonably priced. I ordered 2 boxes of curry goat rice peas and vegetables a pork tray with mash potatoe and veg, a chicken wrap, bottle of water and oxtail meal and it came to 2200jmd so I was happy with that.There was also a chinese restaurant nearby in dragon square where you can get take out.It was 1000j for 2 boxes which were big with chicken fried rice in.I believe it costs a lot more if you want to eat in.My family are all out at work right now so I am here with the nanny.
The huge pit bull escaped off its lead lastnight which scared me to death and this morning I stepped in doo doo which was an epic fail.I don't DO dogs! not even stroking or anything so to stand in doo doo uh ohhh and no-one here to rescue me from the doodoo so I had to clean it up BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I called hubby and told him he said did you clean your shoes too? I laughed and said no I was hoping he would come rescue me lol.Either I will hose them down or throw them away I am not a dog or doo doo person.Aint nobody got time FO DAT!

Tic I don't know you but I am completely exhausted in the best way ever from your 2011/2012 report! Would love to meet you some day! My husband and I were in Negril for 3weeks in April and had a really good time. Not sure I could keep up with you so won't say "maybe" we would go out sometime if the opportunity ever presented itself hahaha I am looking forward to the adventures you will go on this trip! Keep it commin'

Hi TicToc, I don't know you so I erred on the side of caution. I believe you took my post wrongly, it's pretty clear that I was supporting you by writing that your posts were written in "Satire". Satire = Entertainment to be enjoyed by others.

My apologies if I struck a chord.

[TiCtOc]

it's okay, I just wrote as it was happening, no editing, no dramatic for effect entertainment.., no neglection of a nearly 50 year old man,just wrote as I saw

Hi Tic Toc, I love your style of writing and the way you and your family vacation. I am looking forward to your trip report as I did the last. I like the way you deal with some of the negative responses you get from unapproving,envious, judgmental posters who read your reports as well. Your reports are truly entertaining and I am waiting for you to write a book so that you really will not have to be on an zero budget. I am sure you will have plenty of people who will purchase your book on the Negril Message Board. So let the hater's hate because your style of living and writing, I truly rate.

"my sentiments exactly" ha
Well Thank you Butterfly this was a real lovely refreshing post to wake up to.
It is very early in the morning here on the rock and I have an online exam to complete today which will take up most of my day so I thought I would have a quick check of the board and I found your post so that has put me in a good mood for my exam and prompted me to start reporting again later today,
I am writing a book, writing TWO actually, there will be a third, but I am NO writer as you can see,

They have no big words are not edited but there are some that like the raw real style, just scribbling down things as they happen, random thoughts and such, I find a lot of the people that do not like that style of writing are those who would actually love to share their random thoughts and the real deal but sometimes they feel too afraid or feel a need to retreat/withdraw into themselves and be very quiet private people of which there is nothing wrong with that, nothing at all but just live and let live.Don't bash those who want to have fun and share it with the world, the fun, the excitement, the happiness and joy that Jamaica can bring. We all go there because we love it and I love reading all of the boardies reports on this board and writing them too.I would NEVER write a negative comment on someones report though, someone's having the time of their life and then to wake up and realise a total random stranger does not want you to be having fun is a bit sad.I wouldn't do it but then that's just me, Jamaica has taught me MANY things, one of those things is that we are all different yet all one. I am happy to say everyone who I have spent time with in Jamaica, those I chose to meet I have had a great time with, because as carefree and crazy as I seem, I consider myself to be a very good judge of character instantly either by what they, write , what they say, or their actions.So I choose my friends very wisely. I always hang/mix with good hearted people who only have good intentions and that is one of the reasons that I can have so much fun in Jamaica by choosing wisely those I do spend "real life" time with on my trips.Boardies and Jamaicans. So I think ramble of the morning is over and out and I shall start my report a little later today and focus my energy into my online exam , so thank you Butterfly for your nice words 7milegal trip report starting today and jarstang is it? i will see you soon!

I am glad you found my post uplifting. I have thought about writing a trip report but unlike you I can't take the unapproving statements. If you look in my archives I started a thread and you can see how some people can take things way out of proportion and way too personal. I have been turned off by some of the responses when I just made a general observation of experiences I had. My plans in the future is to write a book about Jamaica, including Negril. I am patiently awaiting your wholesome, free-spirited, trip report.
