Whoii donkey! And who said chivalry is dead is a liar. Paul Gaynor keeps it alive as he navigates through the mud.

Where is the fiend? Go get him 'Batman'. Suresh Maragh of Kingston had his face painted to reprise the role of the famous comic and movie hero.

The rains came in torrents and left the field at Chedwin Park, St Catherine, under mud and water. But that didn't deter the hundreds of patrons who turned out for the National Council for Indian Culture in Jamaica's Indian Arrival Day and Roti Festival on Sunday, May 6, at Chedwin Park, St Catherine. It was the first time the two events were held at the same time, and there was an abundance of Indian culture on display.
