I dont know if I'm to be disapointed in Brodber's description of the typical rural Jamaican or ashamed of her meagre insight.
I am a rural Jamaican who grew up in the 70s/ 80s. As a family, we had cable & coloured tv before our relatives in NY and Kgn; microwave, gas/ electric stove, telephone, my father always had a car (and 2 at one time). We saw Kingston as either a place where rich people lived or a big ghetto slum.
So Brodber, get your impressions of rural folk together.
And you Ian, tidy up your sarcasm regarding 'ipads'. We are extremely advanced. We are part of this global sphere, not stereotype rural Jamaicans as you both put it.
