The Return of Barbados Free Press? CLICO draws them out…
These guys were gone almost four years, so much happened during the interim, one regime nearly taxes Barbados to death and nothing to show for it while a new Government assumes office under an unprecedented landslide of all seats… Then family of new administration are given tribute in a most royal way? Do we mean Allen Chastanet’s dad, Michael? Hmm! To say nothing of one of their fave topics – Donville Inniss!
But CLICO is what drew Free Press back from hiding? Here’s a screenshot, in case my 4:00 am revelation was a piece of gristle or indigestion…
However, nefarious villains may yet rejoice, since Candidate for Cirrhosis Cliverton indicated he’s not yet certain if this is a full blown return, or a sporadic burst of guilt?

What about George, Shona, Auntie Moses and George? BFP’s Marcus – whose real name was James – is apparently a victim of cancer, while Robert and his passion for flying have carried him to climes unknown…
Aussies have a quaint expression called “Gone Walkabout” and it used to be actually included as a form of a paid vacation you saved up for, is this what the Grape Hall gang have done?
“In Australian Aboriginal society, Walkabout is a rite of passage during which males undergo a journey during adolescence, typically ages 10 to 16, and live in the wilderness for a period as long as six months to make the spiritual and traditional transition into manhood.”
Sad to say, when they disappeared initially I was kind of glad as many Bajans were convinced I did BFP as well as this site… When I started doing News for CITA 90.1 is when Free Press went AWOL, again I was annoyed as it looked like I stopped doing the subterfuge for the hiatus to be achieved – now they’re making an appearance while I’m still with radio may be a good thing to finally show we’re separate entities?
So agree, I could never understand.
It sort of feels like a big let-down for me.
