Tola posted:Storm, that short distance has so many names. Seawell-Turn is known for its many accidents. The same with Bolum turn, at the other end of the long straight road. I believe this is caused by cows crossing the road with muddy feet and cars not slowing down, when it rains.
Once, just before I could caution a driver to slow down at muddy Bolum turn, he almost flipped the car, but safely landed in the nearby trench and a tractor had to be used to pull the car. Some Guyana drivers don't seem to notice dangers on the road, until after an accident.
I was told that an airplane crashed behind the Fraser's house at #19 village during WWII [the large lone house on the back-dam side of the highway] and they built a wooden runway for it to take off.
In the 1960's my late sister was married to a man from #19 village whose daughter was a teacher at the primary school. But that area is changed so much with large houses, that I am not able to find exactly where they lived.
My teacher's wife from Albion was the headmistress for a number of years at that school : Bohemia ?
Chief is a proud past resident [PPR] of Coriverton and he might have to ask his way around metropolitan Albion, my sugar estate. Dem country bai always get lost in populated areas like Albion, but me hear he was able to overcome NY.
When I was nine or ten I used to ride to the community center, the old one not the new stadium and listen to V and the crocodiles practice. We had no one to teach guitar so one learned from copying by watching the hand movements or by ear. I used to do the same thing in GT. I used to watch the night people and sammy backh practice and when I became older actually went to their gigs.
