FARM TIME

TUESDAYTALK

Wall of secrecy

1. Some folks are asking why the wall of secrecy around the suspect, and more important, how does that square with the "major person of interest" label which has been attached to other individuals in the past? Surely, if someone is wanted by the police, it would help to alert members of the public so they can report any sightings.

Sleaze dad

2. The father of sleaze is at it again. Having misled the head of the operations into thinking there was a glorious chance of victory, even after the main event, he is now proposing new action to dislodge the errant one. The question, is who will underwrite the cost?

New status

3. From one Mr T to the next. The fashionista is said to be basking in her new status, having found love the third time around. And being a very consistent person, she has found herself another Mr T.

Yard style

4. This promises to be one hot summer as the young'uns line up for parties from Negril to Morant Point. Some insiders say many of these sessions now provide much more than food and drink to the offspring of the rich and famous and the wannabes - in yard style.
