GT Bluetooth
De Bluetoother recently visited one o’ de elderly homes in GT. Is de season; Christmas that is. The occupants were happy. The visit
give dem a “bounce”. Dem talk ‘bout dem life and how things change. Even the gifts dem now getting change. In dem days was clothes and shoes and a bottle o’ de expensive “spirits”. Now is pampers and slippers and mentholated spirits and Ben-gay! Dem happy to get
it though. Yesterday I remember one o’ de things dem tell me; “mouth open, story jump out”
De saying come to de tip o’ my tongue when I get de tip. Dem boys silent. Dem try not fuh mek de tip get out. But it come out. After
all is GT we live in. According to de tip; a big “pashray” (a term de elderly use to mean a fight) bruk out during the Waterfalls
paper Christmas party last Tuesday. De way de thing turn out is was more like a Christmas “bash”! De tipper who pass de tip seh it
was sheer “boop”, “boop”, “bash”, bash”, “cuff”, “slam”, “kick”, “cuss”, “falsename calling”, “finger nail scraping”, “biting”, more
“cuss” and “kick” between Uncle Glenn and Gary Delazy!
De Bluetoother hear it was like mud-wrestling. Clothes get tear up and hair spoil up. De latter didn’t affect Uncle Glenn. Some
believe it was part o’ de paper routine to sensationalise by exhibiting de “closeness” o’ de staff especially between Uncle Glenn and
de lazy boy…oops, sorry, Gary Delazy. Some seh dem does stay far from such “closeness” between de two “pashrayers”. It look like de
“closeness” gat a HIStory! As dem boys does seh, “talk half, leff half”.
Plenty people rush to de scene. Some to “pope” de party and others fuh “promotional purposes”. Odinga and De Holland boy speed down
vying to promote de “bout”. But that is another “pashray”. Uncle Freddie and Mark miss de event. Dem was in a room together at a
State guest house. That “closeness” does also mek you “talk half and leff half”. Again, that is another “pashray”. So if you see
people carrying Ben-gay and Iodex and Mentholated spirits, it might not be for the elderly home; it’s fuh Uncle Glenn and Gary and
Uncle Freddie and Mark. Wait. It could still be classified as fuh de elderly! Hmmm!
