  • Best days of our lives. You have to live this to understand,,,no IPad,,IPhone. Swimming in the river,,,Eating fruits all day long,,Respect or licks like peas,,fetching water,,,jumble stories,,,fire side cooking. That rain on the galvanized roof. Bathing in the rain. Sweetness too bad.

    The fact that you can film this, with these beautiful scenes still accessible, shows it can still be recaptured. It was a beautiful time. You have a wholesome vision. What a lovely lady ❤️.

    5am in the morning and having a cup of tea … Lovely video to start the day.
  • Taking a shower under the galvanize spout in the rainy season, a “bath” with a bucket of water in the outside stall in the dry season, baking bread in the dirt oven, grand mother sewing outfit for Easter sports day, soaking fruits for black cake and stealing a little “pinch” every now and then, everyone walking to the cemetery to bury the dead after funeral Mass and blessing yourself with water before walking back into your house, church bazaars…the list goes on. I had the most wonderful childhood in my hometown,Flanagin Town, in the bush, raised by the most decent loving people in my family and community.
