myTobago – your questions, review and comment about Tobago

Hello there all!

Something drew me here on Sunday and I learned the sad news of the death of David Watkins.

I also saw that someone has been asking after me, and am very touched at that.

Well, there have been torrents of water under the rickety old bridge and it's now six years since I went to Tobago, but I still talk about it to anyone who will listen. Recently two new people joined my workplace who originate from Jamaica. As soon as I knew I was off: 'I've not been to Jamaica, but I have been to the Caribbean, to Tobago...' and away I went!

That sojourn in Tobago made no small impact on my life:
I learned how to use the Internet so I could do some research on Tobago and from there joined this forum;
I re-discovered my dormant love of writing from waffling on this forum, and wrote a book about Tobago ( which I'm hoping to be made available on Kindle), followed up by another book. I'm not particularly proud of either of them now though as I've been practising my writing and believe it to have improved.
I joined a writer's forum when I published my book and there made some new friends, most notably a British lady, an author, living in the US, in Utah. Not only have we become very good friends, I have met her over here and two years ago I flew to Utah ALL BY MYSELF ( a big achievement for me) and spent two lovely weeks staying with her.

I may or may not return to Tobago ( never say never) but it will always hold a special place in my heart.

I can't promise to waffle on here so much in the future, if at all, but I have discovered the notorious Facebook, where I tend to do my waffling nowadays, if any of you would care to join me there. I remember the 'regulars': Tony, Bill, Sandra, Steph, Gisella, Paul....

Take care now all!

Hi Carol

Its always good to hear from you - whether regularly or less frequently. Good luck with the writing.

And how does one find the Waffle Queen on FB amongst the hundreds of Carol Townsends ?

Good hearing from you.

Bill

Carole!!

Nice to hear from our Queen of Waffle again.

You seem to be waffling away in the hope of finding the ultimate waffle ... and you must never rule out a visit to Tobago again.

It seems to have been your inspiration and taken you to new levels.

Keep in touch and don't forget us ... we are always here.

Regards

Thank you Paul and all.

Bill, perhaps you could find me through my Facebook email? [email protected]

I'm not too hot on how to search for people, but we'll find a way if the email address doesn't work.

Carol(noe),

I found you on FB, will send a friend request.

Your faithful servant

I look forward to including you in my FB 'gang' young Bill, but I haven't received a notification as yet. I found a Bill Brunner in Illinois, but wasn't sure if 'twas thee or not.

look how long nobody waffled.... I must say that with the birth of mini-alibaba my time infront of the computer got limited to answering the booking inquieries and checking into facebook on my phone to stay in touch with family and friends abroad... and to update our little alibaba page there... much more running up and down to swimming lessons, soccer class and school in my life now...
just recently got a used PC from a friend and will try to come and waffle or answer questions a bit more often again.
will look for your books right now!

Hi Carol,
how nice to hear from you. And how lovely you remember me as a 'regular' I was not on the forum for month now (or maybe for some more month), I was just busy and had other things in mind. But I'm pretty sure I will post some more things in future.
And I just heard about the passing away of David Unfortunately I never had the chance to meet him but we had some very nice chats.

Take care and will meet you on FB some times.

Love
Gisela
