Hi Nicki

Welcome aboard! :lol:

Its normally short, sharp bursts. Don't worry too much about those forecasts. The truth is that unless its 100% clear blue skies, they tend to report it as partially cloudy, etc. If you get one 5-minute thunderstorm (a fairly common occurence), then the forecast for the whole day will show 'thunderstorms expected'. You can't win.

Don't worry - you'll have a wonderful time.

thanks Steve. I went to St Lucia and Grenada at this time of year and although we had a couple of overcast and rainy moments the weather was great so were banking on it again in Tobago! I think Ive been reading too many weather reports and let it get the better of me !

PS your website is great, I just wish ud do it for the rest of the caribbean !

Rest of the Caribbean? You must be joking. Just one little island has already made me a sadder individual than I can describe and aged me beyond my years. Just look at the picture - and I'm only 29. :cry:

29
Hm . . on the numeric part of keyboards the '2' and the '5' are very close to each other and could therefore easily be mixed up while typing.

Maybe this is just a case of "You're only as old as you feel"????

Alternatively, it could be wishful thinking!!

I guess he could have got the numbers the wrong way round ... :-k

I guess it is possible for the majority of the human race to live to that age ?
