"I
was surprised when I came here, to see that you could get everything
you could get back home [in Guyana] in the market. Everything, come
from different countries, everything.
When
I was home I sent eggs to my sister, because I said I don't think
they have fowl in England. So I sent eggs from home! Somebody was
coming, so I gave them the eggs and so on to bring, I said they
can't get eggs and they can't get rice in England. Because we have
our own fowl you see, and so on and our own rice land.
Then
we read about the snow and ice and the place is so cold, and we
said trees can't grow there you see, because the place is so cold.
I feel that it was just all snow and ice and all the people living
there. When I come, and I see so many people of different nationalities,
and I say I am back in Guyana!."
