Rev..bhai i got a little bit more to reach the fullest,

hopefully it will be done before my time is up.

I'm gonna piggy back on Django's answer cause I can't find much on the eastern boundary!

* 2015 - 1662 = 353 years = 4236 months

* Actually that 1662 was when the "western boundary of the colony of Berbice" was established.

* Like riya I couldn't find the Eastern boundary date---Django believes it's 1671.

Rev

4121 months

I found the year 1671 the Abary River became the

boundary due to some disagreement to establish a

trading post in Demarara river.

Follow me, folks.

Demerara's eastern boundary = Berbice's western boundary.

If Riya didn't learn geography, at least she should know geometry.

Django says 4128 months = 344 years = the year 1671.

Anjali says 4121 months = 343 years + 5 months = 1672.

Wikipedia says: "In 1672, under an arrangement between the Commander of Essequibo and the Secretary of the Government of Berbice, it was agreed that the Abary River would be the western boundary of the Colony of Berbice."

My history book says 1672.

I am giving Anjali first prize.

Django gets second prize.

Congrats!!

As I mentioned before, history books don't all agree on dates.

THE BEGINNING OF THE COLONY OF BERBICE

Meanwhile, the Berbice administration attempted to expand the size of the colony by establishing a trading post as far west as the Demerara River. At that time the Demerara area was unoccupied, but the West India Company objected to the presence of the trading post after claiming that the Demerara River fell under its jurisdiction. The trading post was then moved in 1671 to the Abary River which eventually became the boundary of Berbice and Demerara.

This need editing.

All dem question hard hard, I want a easy one like, what's today's date? No not that one either that one hard also, I not too sure, can't find my dam calender,,,oh shit it shows on my comp

You back bhai,how was you trip???

Thank you Sir Gil

Okay Django, let's level. The trading post was set up in 1671.

The word "eventually" could not refer to 1671. In this instance, "eventually" was 1672 but Odeen Ishmael was too lazy to check.

I do need to stop being lazy and do my own math! 

Long ass bus ride, I wish I did drive it would have taken under six hours, the bus took 8hrs to get there and on the way back stoppped in North Bay for one hr making it a nine hr trip back.

It was for my daughter's grad she passed with honours from Northern College. While there, I saw a Navita Ramdas from Guyana who came up to get her papers, she apparently works in a mine in Guyana and did the course through correspondence, she took three awards,one was for student with the highest academic standing in the Mining Engineering Tech Program, another for higest mark in Field Mapping.

I never got a chance to speak with her, she disappeared right after the ceremonies.

Just thought I'd throw the name out there in case anyone knows her.

Good morning.

Are you ready?

Which village in Guyana has the nickname Veggeh?

Good morning

Vergenoegen

I think you're a WestDem gyal.

You're right.

Congrats!!

I was hoping Django would stay quiet on this one. He did.

Next one.

Which sugar estate is also known as Bourda?

Uitvlugt estate

Enmore

Thank you Sir Gil

Albion

No.

No.

I wanted to put up a notice: DJANGO KEEP OUT but decided to hand you it on a platter.

Your answer is correct.

The original owner of plantation Uitvlugt was Isaac Charles Bourda Uitvlugt [ICBU]. 

Up to now, the estate's vehicles, plant and equipment are marked ICBU. Look at the ICBU on the factory chimney:

Let's see who is Tomboy and who is Man now. What is the tallest tree in Guyana?

I recalled some workers will say they work

at Bourda (owner)estate.

The silk cotton tree

Silk cotton tree

Brazil nut tree

No.

No.

I took a while to respond to you because I wanted to verify/compare your answer with mine.

ok it's not the silk cotton tree.

another answer: kabukalli (sp)

No.

We're talking about Guyana. There are varieties of ceiba trees. The silk cotton is one. The tree I want grows higher than silk cotton in Guyana.

balata tree

* I know there are 31 groups of trees in Guyana.

* Ceiba pentandra is one group---and trees in this group, grow up to 230 feet.

* You are right---silk cotton is part of the Ceiba grouping.

* Hope you give the height when you reveal the answer.

 Got to be some kind of red wood species.
