Lizard to CFR host: Be my Valentine!
Today, for the first time in her life, the host of Caribbean Free Radio had a lizard fall on her. The incident occured on the atmospheric patio of the Diego Martin Pan Institute in Benjamin Street, Diego Martin. The CFR host was eating a salad when “something black” leapt on to her clothing. One of her dining companions, Wendy Warnick of Fairbanks, Alaska, helped brush the creature off the CFR host’s arm on to the ground.
Baby, the Diego Martin Pan Institute’s chef and man of business, told the CFR host that the incident signified good luck. The CFR host, who is terrified of lizards, is reported to have said: “I’m surprised I didn’t get a heart attack, but it could have been worse – this could have been a Teacher Mildred moment.”
