Not sure what is meant by sturdy desk and by the way, what outdoors have NO trees or buildings....?
How chi chi can eat out these door jamb and table foot dem so we no safe fi go stand nor go under dem
We just do the best we can with what we have. There is no perfect situation, but try not to panic because you can die from a heart attack. I do believe that there are more coming.
Good advice Vernon. Keep up the good work.
I think those instructions from ODPEM are dated. Who is this new manager? what's his background and training? A list of degrees? Or is he politically appointed? A friend of the ruling government?
