Yea, mon, I tink tis mostly from Jamaica they be!
Crazy as loons, the lot of them.
My estranged hubby found one in Mobile who is from Panama.
He was en route to Houston to visit his daughter.
A most handsome man he was, too.

Sylvia, there is a large Jamaican population in Wolverhampton, there's an Indian population too. I have some fond memories of samosa's and pakora's at the Punjabi assemblies and also of Jamaican bun and cheese, some of the older Jamaican sisters used to make :-)
