Maybe....Miss Puneesha was tired of listening to Lenard Cohen
I'm with you,Lee, now my Kriol is really shakey, but I really don't get the joke. Maybe this is more like a humorous antecedote than a joke, strictly speaking. HOHO, MB
Did you laugh?
Marybeth: here's a quick translation
Miss Punisha smacked her son-in-law (Cousin Ragio) with her sandle, while on the street, at midnight on full moon (out in front of our house). It appears that she found out that her son-in-law has a young sweetheart, living in the house with him and the wife doesn't know what's going on. THE WIFE THINKS THEY ARE JUST FRIENDS.
Cream: yes I did laugh... and laugh... and laugh because I had a suspicion that something was going on over there...
hahahahahahaha
Tings really happen in dat small place dere, Miss Lee.
