Woye, Ah Wotless! You Know You’re Caribbean When…
You have sent barrels to relatives who live “back home”
Sending clothes, hygiene products and other necessities to people in your native country is a common occurence in any immigrant household. Those items are usually stored in barrels that are shipped back home. My mummy used to put a table cloth on a barrel to make it look presentable, especially if it was in our house for more than a week. (Don’t tell her I told you that though! Ha!)
