Before I roll out today let me take a minute to update my blog. Yesterday afternoon as I stepped out onto my gallery, I was greeted by "the national weapons of mass destruction", a couple of lovable vervet monkeys on the wall across the street eating a mango. I just hope it was the first mango picked, bitten and liked. This mango season we will again hear the cries from fruit tree owners as these "weapons of mass destruction" make life difficult for some of us in their bid to continue surviving in fertile Liamuiga. I am of the view that it is time we send the monkey back to their homeland. They were brought here for a purpose which has since expired, and since they no longer serve that purpose, and we no longer need them here send them back home. I hope today is a monkey free day for me. In a recent video documentary they claimed that there are more monkeys than people in our islands. I do not believe that it is too late for us to do something about the e...

The Banks Calender Girl photos are out and the community seems very happy. No outcry this year. I don't suppose that last year's cry out will stifle any creativity or innovation to clothing and costume design, in fact the illegal creates greater demand, and we should be learning by now that it is sometimes better to keep quiet and go with the youthful flow. I wonder when some of this creativity and innovation will come to SKN? Will some of this creativity and innovation come for this Sugar Mas 43? I shall check all the shows to see if we are READY Banks Calendar Girl pictures by Bajan Paparazzi  

I was out very late last evening, till about nine. It was the official opening of Sugar Mas 43 National Carnival at Shoreline, on the Bay Road, West of the old Treasury Building now home to the National Trust and Museum. It does not matter how much rain had come, that show was not going to get no bus [burst]. As long as there is music, there is show. No if, no but, no nothing. This might be a rainy season, so band man take warning, rain or no rain just be there, and on time to. I was there early because I wanted to see who was going in for NATIONAL QUEEN. Not that I would know anyone in this young generation of queens, but I just might find someone to support. After their 5 minute promenade on the stage, I am now backing Ms NEVIS for Sugar Mas 43 National Carnival Queen. Usually I support the contestant sponsored by LIME, it is just something I did from the days of being a Lime employee. This year I am backing Ms Nevis, irrespective of sponsor, and we will see what is going to hap...
