An obviously liming person told us on the island, that "liming" (by the way a wonderful state of mind) has its roots in the following historical event: loooong time ago people from Great Britain often caught a cold during their stay on the island. ( Please ask the Woolers for expierience about that during their last stay ;-) One comon stratgedy to fight this was drinking tea -LEMON-tea - while sitting in th sun..... liming was born! (today a lot of variations are known concerning to the used drinks)

Thanks for interesting info. on Liming. The Wooler's would just like to say that they didn't catch their colds on Tobago! We caught them from the English lady in 4B on the plane going out! We've also found that after a couple of rum punches, we didn't notice them anyway!
