What's Happening - Sunday, January 5, 2025

Rupert Bent

I got a message that Rupert Bent has passed on. He is former Miss World, Cindy Breadspeare's husband. This information is being circulated on social media. This has not been confirmed by his family. Rupert is a very talented musician, and I understand he is a very accomplished sailor.

Emancipation Park

One of my guest writers and on-the-ground reporters shares what Emancipation Park looks like at this time.

During last year I had complaints about the need to improve the maintenance of the park. The condition of the walkway, for example, was deteriorating. I hope that the park downtown and the one in Halfway Tree can also regain their past glory. I remember the beautiful fountains at both parks, and people used to flock to the parks to have their pictures taken.

Halfway Tree Park has been captured by vendors.

Crime and More Crime?

I have been informed that the body of a woman has been found in Devon Pen in St. Mary. The body was found wrapped in a tarpaulin. I am awaiting a report from the police on this matter.

The Weather Is Deteriorating in Cold Countries

Some areas of North America are facing snow storms, and in England they expect plenty of ice to be on the roads. At this time, it can be very dangerous to drive on the road or even walk. Yu slip and yu slide. Yu slide and yu bus yu head or bruk yu foot. Winter is not pretty in those countries. Snow or no snow, they have to go to work!

BBC is reporting that more than 60 million Americans across more than 30 states are in the grips of a huge winter storm that could bring the heaviest snowfall and coldest temperatures in over a decade.

Padmore Clinic in St. Andrew Getting Attention

Last year, one of my on-the-ground reporters brought it to my attention that the Padmore Health clinic was not being used and it was in bad condition. I said to myself, "How can a poor country afford to have a government building stay like that?" Where are the responsible public servants?

SOS JPS

This is a video of a JPS pole which is in a bad state and attention is needed immediately. I am sure my friends at JPS will have this matter dealt with at the earliest possible date. Thanks to my supporter for bringing it to my attention.
