Have been invited to an anniversary party with a Caribbean theme.

No 'kin idea what to wear...I COULD take some rum, but don't usually drink it, so anyone got any other ideas?

yea, take a lot of bob marley records and some spliffs...

Go as a stereotypical tourist - shorts, flip flops, LOUD shirt, sunnies and one of those palm leaf woven-by-the-rasta-on-the-beach hats.

I can't think of anything typically caribbean and i lived there for 18 years.


ooooh oooh - make some rum punch - recipe below!

One of sour (lime)
2 of sweet (sugar syrup)
3 of strong (rum - doh)
4 of weak. (water, orange juice - whatever takes your fancy)

ETA - or banana daquiris, or ti punch.....................

first, develop an unhealthy obsession with westerns and gangster movies, and guns

then you need to learn to kiss your teet' an gwaan like you face favour al capone, an yu hafi learn patois of course

drink dragon stout or wray & nephew but not that red stripe shite

bun nuff spliffs and a bit of crack too

say 'bomboclaat', 'rassclaat, & 'pussyclaat' a lot, and tell someone you don't like that they are 'renk' and 'butters'

then later on get brutally murdered

it's the cool runnings easy vibe caribbean way no problem mon

Err, thanks, I think, for all the suggestions

Strumpet - NO FROCKS! I don't do frocks!

So far, am really liking the cricketer and the colonist ideas

VOTE PiRATE

That too - in fact, thinking about it, it's way more practical and last-minute-achievable than the other two
