Hurricane humor - so a media crew went to a fishing village [View all]

in the parish expecting the worst of Matthew (Portland). Some of the fisherman have moved their boats and other equipment but some will never be convinced that a storm is coming.

One showed the journalist a chicken on the beach and said nothing coming or 'dat chicken would never come a waterfront'. We were howling with laughter.

Word is herb is in short supply in the city but di aroma around the neighborhood is 'pungent'

All is well so far. The worst comes tonight and we should only experience tropical storm winds. The problem will be rain and sea surge.
