While they're at it, please consider relocating that detention centre to another part of New Providence or even another island. That is now a highly populated area although it wasn't when they first started out. Why are illegal immigrants even been brought to New Providence, where they want to go anyway, where most of the population lives? Ridiculous!
True! Our family of four were planning on a rare afternoon out to see a movie that we could all see, but no. Will wait until it plays shows on Cable Bahamas for a $5 fee. Tickets expensive, lousy atmosphere, ugh. We'll be rediscovering board games, jigsaw puzzles, making our own stove-top popcorn and just talking with time together.
Glad someone agrees with me, now if only the smart people in charge would agree too! I also wonder if 'they' didn't decide to push the horns because actual goatskins were becoming harder to find while horns could be brought from a store. Who knows...
Haven't been to Junkanoo since I got caught in the middle of a pushing-shoving mob on the corner of Frederick & Bay Streets sometime in the 1980s and felt my breath leaving my body, then we all fell into Bay Street. Limit the size of the groups and give every group the same theme to display their creativity and talent. Less fabric, feathers and horns but more drums. Growing up in the 1960s/70s I remember hearing the beat of the goatskin drum loud & clear; nowadays horns drown out the drums. Fix it!
So funny to see this article as I was just thinking this morning he must be the WORSE Minister of Works EVER in the history of the Bahamas. I guess if he's not aware of it, it doesn't exist.

Watching a NB12 newsclip, it seems like besides the pilot, the people at Stuart's Cove saved the day. Imagine. Imagine if they had not been nearby.
