Both Jeffrey and I, born and grew up on Grenville Street, he wanted to be a singer, he did a lot of practising in the shower as the water then was always cold.
When ever we had to get our backsides cut from our parents which was very often for going around the rocks under the hospital, we use to sit down and plan our words to stop the blows.
One night toe mars planned to shout; La qua a see the coffin, I was shock to hear him under lash really shouting those words, but Auntie Tiny was not listening, and if i remember well he got more for making noise.
Jeffrey when you look back at those days was real fun.
We left home and went fishing around the rocks once and Toemars fell in King George Hole I left him in there and ran home I was so scared. I fell asleep, when I woke up I heard jeffrey calling me in the yard, I could not believe it I taught papa hinds bring him back from the dead, whey mama they cut we arse when the found out where we were that day.
we had some hard days growing up,teasing people, but they were good days, you were the first person I remember spinning a basketball on one finger on the court, anyhow before I forget I still have some popcorn and ice cream for you, but I want meh marble you d raff, you hear me.
Whats of big jean and Sandra boy? I heard your brother Wapo lives in Texas , is that so?.
Tell Reggie , Desmond's Son Allan is in Grenada for a few months some place in Victoria.
Toe Mars and I both attended mother Rose school, only old people will know boys went to that school for some time. They stopped it when guys like CPD and Tattoes reached school age, them Nuns did not trust bald head fellars moreso the ones that used to hide in the guides hut and tell tales.
Listen to them to day, real story tellers, that CPD and Tattoes.
