We drink when we got woman trouble too

And when rum done argument starts. Chopping-up starts. Wife run fuh life. Pickney run fuh hide. Neighbor get two broadsides for intervening. Two dead, one badly wounded. Police come into the matter. Next day you wake up in jail. The bad news you receive that your wife dead. Who kills her? The rum.

Was trying to tell him that rum is not the answer to everything and that some of us are not guzzlers.   Happy Wednesday.   

Give credit to those who don't consume alcohol and live a good life.  

Ram, I never touched liquor in my life and don’t miss anything.

Anjali,

Here it is. This culture of drinking to solve problems is wrecking havoc among some people in Guyana.

Nehru, remember the bums in Guyana used to drink Sujjical? I guess it was a Surgical medicine. What in the world was it and how did they get it? 

Nah it was mentholated Spirits dem old lady used to rub them head with when dem had headache

Was bush rum made with it too ? My village had a family that used to brew it in the forest and sell it.

It was called Surgical Spirits and you could buy it from the drug store. My grandfather used to carry it in his drug store but he would tell the “Sagiwan” men that he didn’t have any if they came to buy it. It was like methylated spirits but not exactly the same. 

Mars, was it clear or purple in colour ?

They added the purple coloring to one of them but I don’t remember which one. They called it surgical spirits because doctors supposedly washed their surgical instruments in the alcohol to sterilize them.

Thanks.

The village bums drank from a bottle of purple liquid. My dad used to say it will burn out their guts.

There was a family in a neighbouring village who drank bush rum every single day. The Grandfather, father, son and grandsons were all alcoholics. They all died young. Very sad. I remember seeing one of them trembling when he did not get his drink.

They would do menial tasks for a quarter bottle. 

I noticed that liquor in Guyana is Cheap and I wonder if this what encourages drinking ? Indos seem to be in heavy liquor while Afros seem to be occasional drinkers with lighter liquor like a few beers.

My children asked my why do Guyanese people drink so much and I told them that I don't know since I don't drink and even though they are of a legal drinking age, my children don't drink.

Did drinking started in India ? Or was it something started as a British tradition which became a bigger problem later on ?

I visited Haryana, India (the land of my foreparents) and none of my original relatives drank. Haryana recently imposed harsh anti drinking laws.

Many of my Guyanese relatives drink and it is very uncomfortable to visit or participate on any occasion that they have. They poke fun at me and my family for not drinking.

I don't not condemn social drinking and it should be done on moderation.

You can look at those men and tell when they are drinking spirits. It burns their lips and leaves it dry, scaly and discolored. Just imagine what it’s doing to their internal organs. They don’t live to an old age.
