Well guys, I surely will not miss one of you.

There is a photo of Paul (who knows how old it is?) but with David I never know how he looks like. The only thing the guys in Castara could told me, David is tall and strong. Tough he never wanted himself getting on a photo it will be hard to find out without help from my local friends. There will be a lot of people with garlic, rum and Carib ...

Good idea, Tony! or maybe wear a Mytobago-Cap??

I wear one on my visit in February and so many people taked to me because they know me from the forum (felt almost a bit famous) and it helpes Steve W. to figure me out in Castara.

I will let you know when you have to hide from me next time

Cheers
Gisela

Gisela,I wore my "myTobago" cap every day and nobody spoke to me

Maybe they guessed who was under it!!

OK Gisela

That old photo was about 4 years old.

So I have added another (thanks Steve W for help) from my last visit to Tobago in March 2007, just so that you can see how age never touches me

I get younger every time I visit Tobago !!

Hi Paul!

That's what bathing in the Nylon Pool does for you!! At least if you listen to ANY of the boat-guys who take you there...

Oh, no... wait... that applies to women, doesn't it? Men are supposed to get five years smarter or something!

That explains this website then! full of young women and smart men!!

Cheers all!

How very really of you, Lisa.

Hey Paul,

you put in a new photo for ME???? WOW!

As you wrote you did not change in the years (or you have a very good photo creater program?)

David, if I would have seen someone with a MyTobago-cap I would have talked to him or her! Sure! But I'm very short (thats why they used to call me Shorty). Maybe you are too tall and I couldn't see the cap

Cheers
Gisela
a.k.a. Shorty

Hello Shorty

I am sure many others that I have met from this forum will confirm that the photograph is a true likeness of me

But there's a thought ... why doesn't David put a photo of himself on the forum?

Paul,

Have you met David? I assume you haven't or you wouldn't ask such a silly question

Bill

P.S. Tall and handsome?

Paul Tallet · Post by **Paul Tallet** » Wed Sep 12, 2007 5:54 pm

Bill

I have never met David ... he eludes me !

The stories of this elusive, and yet influential, man are legendary in Castara

Paul,

As close as I could come to getting him "on film"

http://billbrunner.myphotoalbum.com/vie ... astara_053

The man is definitely "Photo Shy"

Bill

Actually, Bill, nobody has met David. I have it on good authority that he only comes out in total darkness and that what most of us think is David is actually just a remotely-controlled cardboard cutout.

Bill B · Post by **Bill B** » Wed Sep 12, 2007 7:54 pm

Steve,

Now I understand. When I met what I thought was the real David he seemed to move a little stiffly, but I thought it was just the after effect of too much

Bill

Brian Taylor · Post by **Brian Taylor** » Wed Sep 12, 2007 8:30 pm

do you guys really think I would not notice when I rent an apartment to a "dummy" for weeks?

I am a whitness that can tell that he is a person... and back here in 11 weeks

sharon can tell, to. no robot ever had so many beers and rum punches..ha-ha

sunny greetings

I am surprised that so few of you have met Mr W. If you hang out in the Boathouse or Coddies you really have a job to miss him.

Perhaps there should be a myTobago competition with a prize for anyone who manages to get a photo of the Bude Dude.

I have a photo of Mr. Watkins... it has been taken at Boat House during pan night and David's dancing

. Unfortunately the photo is quite distant (because of

) but you can recognize him for sure.

To all of you, I can assure you after meeting David I can tell that besides being tall and strong, he is nice and wellbehaving gentleman

.

P.S. I can't believe (again) that I'm writing this under Health and security/sandflies and beaches
