[Markospoon]

Yeah Smith, Mi sis in law showed me that when you put some , I think salt fish on the breadfruit and bite it at the same time is is WONDERFUL.

So, i hope you try it. Yum yum.

That 280J for a curry chicken meal? Out of sight !

[head in the trees]

Did the Ginger Beer help? That's one of Gem's favorite drinks when on the beach.

lesson learned..AFTER, 'lo all these years & trips to Jamaica

i hadn't done this before

on-day-one
pon arrival:::>> i un-packed and neatly put-away & arrange my clothing, stuff, etc.

mi soooooooooooo glad i did
my *life* is so much better

i SHOULD have done this in the past
instead of being so anxious & excited & egar
...to get out-&-about

[Markospoon]

I hope you felt better after the Ginger Beer.
Too bad you had that "condition" while on vacation.

So Negril is dead huh?

Well, good times can still be had with the locals of course.

Wish I was there.

One of my best trips was in the summer when things were slow, slow.

:-)
HEAR me, when i tell you:::>> i'm having a BLAST..!!!..

i KNEW it was gonna be slow
...jus' like i wanted it

but sad for Jamaica/Negril
...'cause this slowness has to be killin' folks
......a *trickle*-down thing-y

for example, Sunday i went to check my barber, and a few other folks, who always are open...even-on a Sunday

nope..!!!..
:-(
dem locked up
closed

e.g, barber got less heads to cut
..'cause workers ain't going to work
....and other *workers* got nobody to impress

saw several *regular-workers*
...looking sad
....in need of a '.trim.'

so it set

by the waaaaaaaaaaa::>> mi-personally, gonna end posting in this thread
...gonna start a today part-2 thread

gonna go shoot some videos
..e.g., my jelly-coconut man said "..OK.." when i asked to do a demo-video on his jelly-bizness::: should be instructive, for those who know nutin' 'bout jelly

PLUS:::>>> more importantly,,,, i just went and 'begged' a eater-ry owner for a small order of callaloo

told her mi desperate:::>>> my *condition* requires leafy-greens (and other stuff)

she said:::>> "..ok.."

soon come back
in 'bout 1-hour

but:>> before i go::>> one more video::>> take sat-day
when i went to visit landlord's son & his family (from foreign)

in background you'll hear some pickneys crying
..that's the foreign pickney
.....Ja-pickeny no better than to act like that
