Pepperpot – January 7
 Air Jamaica or Virgin?
News
BY EVA-JEAN  
January 7, 2011

Pepperpot – January 7

Purple hazard

People warn that drivers should be very cautious about travelling along a certain popular, upscale, hilly road. Not because of potholes, ’cause that’s the norm, but for fear that the bright purple wall, particularly for those not expecting it, could cause extreme shock, horror and even a crash. It’s that bright! Even KC-ites might cringe.

Talent hunt on for the House

Evidently the search is on. In some circles it’s called a desperate hunt for talent, as if someone or something is running out of time. Alongside that there is word of a colossal reshuffle, above and beyond the assembly is what they say.

Who would have thunk it?

They say all eyes should be on the carrier, partly for what has already been announced, but more so for what’s to come. Question is, is it Air Jamaica or Virgin?

The big handover is imminent

People are saying that the date for the big handover has been set. Seems all that’s left is for it to be cast in stone, or ink as some would say.

‘En-titled’

If ever there’s a concern about the owner of house or land, people should simply check the title. Therein may lie the whole truth about some, or perhaps one, claiming dominion over property belonging to another. Watch this space for the explosion.

Sale of the century

Talk is the sale of the century is on. Many aren’t aware yet, but will be soon, as there could be a closure looming. These are still tough times.

Movie time

Meanwhile, back at Liguanea, they say the popcorn’s come out…with extra salt and butter!
