    Thanks for the trip down memory lane……
    GG school was next to petrol station….the corner shop next to it was Castro’s…
    The market was between corner shop and petrol station….every Saturdays…..
    I travelled to GT on train …..to go to St Stanislaus college in GT.
    we went crab catching on GG beach….we also went by canoe to pick mangoes
    In GG back dam…..years 1957-62…..born nabaclais 1944.
    Grew up in GG village left at 17 to UK to join RAF military service.

    GG was a thriving village because of the sugar estate in ENMORE……
    ANSA cinema which was burnt down in the riots of 60 s where
    I saw many good movies in pit bitten by bugs….cinema had 1st 2nd and 3rd
    Class tickets.

    Hope it juggles the grey cells
