Sorry to say but it is so. I have not seen it, but I was told that the cause was electrical. They said you can see where the fire burned along the electrical wires.

Yes, I just heard about it. I understand it happened on Saturday night. The part of the bar which held his sound system, fridge, and all the liquor stock is what burned. I hope to get a photo of it today.

Two hurricanes and now this. Please send good thoughts Eggie's way, as he sure needs them!

Spoke with Eggie last night and he lost two ice boxes and the sound system. Please help Eggie by sending $5-$20 to help him get back on his feet. Monetary donations may be sent to Anthony/Eggie Gordon, Post Office, Calabash Bay, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, W.I. Good luck - Eggie!

I visited Eggie yesterday and in true Jamaican fashion - the bar is already rebuilt!

shelves

With many hands making light work, the zinc is up, painted and new shelves put in.

However, the shelves are empty. Eggie lost his fridge, the next fridge sustained damages, all stock was lost and so was his sound system.

I am very happy to report that although the beers are not cold, Eggie is open for business! Stop by, enjoy a drink, and help support Eggie to fully open back the bar!

open

Keep smiling Eggie!

Just got back from T.B. Eggie is still waiting for current, He has a brand new fridge thanks to the fundraiser at Coconut Cottage on March 15. 22,000 J was raised another 8,000 J was donated by the Thunder Bay gang staying at C.C. It was a large turnout with Charlie Chicken on the menu. Just waiting for a sound system now, soon come.

Big thanks to the Thunder Bay Posse!!!
