Irie!!!
.
Party Prince Harry danced his socks off in blue suede shoes during his royal visit to Jamaica.
.
The prince was visiting Kingston when he was pulled to his feet by attractive
Chantol Dormer.
.
The 27-year-old royal proved that his rhythm was on par with jammin’ style as he boogey-down to a rendition of reggae legend Bob Marley’s “One Love”.
.
That night Harry attended a black tie state dinner with Prime Minister
Mrs Portia Simpson.
.
In a well-received speech the prince had his audience eating out of his hand with a few jokes in the local patois.
.
He said: ‘I count it a great privilege to be standing here tonight, representing The Queen in Jamaica on her Diamond Jubilee. Her Majesty has asked me to extend her great good wishes to you all, and is sorry that she can’t be here - so you’re stuck with me… but don’t worry, cos every liddle ting gonna be aright! ‘
.
‘Your vibrancy and vigour, your wonderful welcome to visitors and your island’s natural beauties - all combine to make Jamaica unique. The Queen recognised this.

Love Island
============
.
Once upon a time there was an island where all the feelings
lived; happiness, sadness, knowledge, and all the others,
including love.
.
One day it was announced to all of the feelings that the island
was going to sink to the bottom of the ocean.
So all the feelings prepared their boats to leave.
.
Love was the only one that stayed. She wanted to preserve
the island paradise until the last possible moment.
.
When the island was almost totally under, Love decided it was
time to leave. She began looking for someone to ask for help.
Just then Richness was passing by in a grand boat. Love asked,
“Richness, Can I come with you on your boat?”
Richness answered, ” I’m sorry, but there is a lot of silver and
gold on my boat and there would be no room for you anywhere.”
.
Then Love decided to ask Vanity for help who was passing in a
beautiful vessel. Love cried out, “Vanity, help me please.”
“I can’t help you”, Vanity said, “You are all wet and will
damage my beautiful boat.”
.
Next, Love saw Sadness passing by. Love said, “Sadness, please
let me go with you.” Sadness answered, “Love, I’m sorry, but, I

.
Then, Love saw Happiness. Love cried out, ” Happiness, please
take me with you.” But Happiness was so overjoyed that he

.
Love began to cry. Then, she heard a voice say, “Come Love,

Love felt so blessed and overjoyed that she forgot to ask the

Regrettably,
Keith Stewart of “Keith & Enid fame”, as well as boasting a stellar career as a
cabaret artist on the North Coast back in the 60s & 70s, has passed away. His velvet voice can
be well remembered as he captivated numerous audience at the famous
Yellow Bird club back in the 60s. He was also a good amateur tennis player.
May his soul R. I. P.
