Big Aunty is always late fuh everything. It is always suh embarrassing cause when yuh guh somewhere late, people does be looking when yuh come in. But Big Aunty nah mind. She does behave as if nuttin ain’t wrang. But is dem boys wah does feel shame when dem friend mek joke and seh how when meh wife die, she gan still be meh late wife.
But one ah de most embarrassing moments in dem boys life was when one day dem decide fuh do some shopping. Midway into de shopping, dem boys turn to Big Aunty and tell she, I fuhget weh de car park?
