The View From Trinidad

June 10th, 2006 | By: Stacy-Marie Ishmael | 2 Comments »

Over at the Caribbean Beat Blog, JT describes the Warrior fever that has gripped Trinidad:

Up at the airport, the roundabout is festooned with flags and twenty-foot mascots playing steel pans and guitars. I followed a taxi into the car park, and it had I IS A WARRIOR TOO splashed across the entire back window. We are all instructed to wear red for the foreseeable future…

The Trinidad Newsday reports that there is a run on red clothing in the country, and in some stores “there were no red items of clothing left on the shelves.”

It’s hard enough not being in Germany; now I’m beginning to miss the lime in Trinidad too.

Ah well. As we say in Trinidad, no scene! The lime in London tomorrow promises to be decent.
