Right answer and correct reason.

I remember that day well, just around my birthday.  

We were on the show and two other names come to mind.. 

Another sad question.

While British Guiana was struggling for independence.

A force wanted the British to leave  and tried many violent strategies.

At Enmore,  a bomb was thrown in the  school bus carrying  manager's children.

What was the name of the child  killed ?   

GODFREY TEIXEIRA

Well hung! Quite a specimen!

There was a bum who hung around Demico and Brown Betty asking for change or food. He would belch on your hamburger and after you abandoned it in disgust he would chow down on your food. Name that bum. His false name that is and I want his real false name.

The stink cigarette was Texas 99, that thing stunk to high heavens and harsh tarass.

You have the right man but his false name was not PZ. A lot of people make that mistake, that's why I asked for his real false name.

Here's another one:

Guyanese used/use a laundry blue to whiten clothes. It was/is sold in the form of a square tablet with a blue and white wrapper. Name that brand of laundry blue. I need the correct spelling

blue boy,sky blue,blue blue hey i know that blue he use to drive mini bus  

Rickets Blue?

or Rickette ?

No, sir.

Reckitts

Not quite correct, but I'll give you a pass.

It's Reckitt's.

Another one:

Under a franchise arrangement with a US company, in 1969 Banks DIH started bottling and distributing a vitamin- and protein-rich beverage as a soft drink.

Name the brand of that soft drink and the name of the US company that awarded the franchise to Banks DIH. [Both answers must be correct].

Puma is the drink and Pepsi the company 

No ball.

Bowl again.

Vita Malt and the US company is Coca-Cola.

No. Try again.

Guinness 

Correct.

As a  teenager, I remember calling Mrs. Teixeira to offer my condolences and her words still ring in my ear today 'What kind of people would do this to children ?'  I was told she never recovered from Godfrey's death.

Guyana has an unpleasant past and its still happening today.  

The Radio Dem moderators in 1964 were ...

Christopher Deane about six feet tall  and

Mona Williams, very much shorter.

Mostly GT people participated in the show.    

No

 I have this book, given to me by her in New Zealand. I think it's the right person.

Malt Extract, or Malta.

Oh my goodness TI, that is her alright...very much shorter than Deane.

She was a very vibrant and out going person.

I have some photos taken of her, Christopher Deane and others in front of Radio Dem in 1964, when myself and Lennox D. [Montreal] from Canje was on the show. Some photos were also taken in the studio.     

Could you Dialog me her contact info, she might like copies.    

I would also like to know which company supplied the peanut brittle during 'teenage hour'.

I Google and discovered she is a writer of children books. She might be able to ID others in the photo, GT teenagers.   

Last I heard, she was in Israel. I think she married a New Zealand guy but not sure. I will try to find out exactly where she is.

Thanks TI.

It would be nice to know what happened with Chris Deane.

Check the tab that says 'Contact' you can contact her through this book council.

De man name was Peas Head cause he head shape like a big pea. If you say Peas Head it sounds PZed. By the way do you guys say Zed or Zee in Canada?

Thanks TI, I will let you know how it turned out.

you guys ever see a mad man in front of demco house bowl bat and field and he also run out the batsman then appeal some time he take catch  

When I was a kid in the Corentyne, this one mad man walk like 4 villages over to tell us his house was on fire (while the house was apparently still on fire).

We didn't know him. He didn't know us. He just chose us to come for help to save his still burning house. It didn't occur to him to tell his neighbors in his own village.

Nehru

No

Christopher Dean died in 1994 while I was News Editor at Broadcasting House. He and I covered Queen Elizabeth's departure ceremony at Timehri in February that year. A gentleman he was.

Thanks Gil. I am sorry to hear about Christopher's  passing.

He was a neat guy and I have fond memories of our meeting.

I am in touch with Lennox from Rose Hall estate in Montreal, who was on the show with me and will let him know about Chris.

I recently sent him the photos taken at that time.  

The telephone operators/radio dispatchers on the sugar estates had a network of friendship from Skeldon to Uitvlugt. Many of us met and relationships was formed, including family marriages.

A wonderful time.

I was about to say Peas Head.

We say the word the correct way in Canada...Zed.

In music therapy whenever we do the alphabet song with the kids, when we get to the part  QRS TUV, WX Y and....there's always some with American influence who say Zee and others with Zed. Zed doesn't really rhyme though

I believe the Texas 99 cigarette was available during the 80 day national strike in the early 60s, when there was no imports.

I smoke at the time and it was a hard choice between dry black-sage leaf or Texas 99. Both were just as bad, but they were good at chasing away mosquitoes.
