I have already received a number of messages of appreciation

for this site - see some below. This is most encouraging and

makes the work involved really worthwhile.

What a delightful idea and it made fascinating reading..and

listening. Especially from several thousand miles and many

degrees in temperature away!

I only intended to make a cursory visit to your website, but

once I got on, I was intrigued. The language in the excerpts

was vivid and colourful and I was transported back in time.

Every now and then we need to be reminded of our history

and I am so grateful for the experience.

First, I think the site is an outstanding way of documenting

our past and sharing it. I will check it out and share it. but

kudos for organizing this information. It is a jewel.

 Story-telling is such an important part of our learning

experience and here you have provided us (J'cans and our

offspring around the world) with an opportunity to revisit

our history.

I am particularly intrigued with the language that was used.

Reminds me of the way I remember my father writing letters.

This is much appreciated.

Thank you so very much for a truly wonderful gift! What an

original idea and how pleasant it is to traverse these

Jamaican Christmases Past. It is an example to all of us

the cultural enjoyment that historical research can bring.
