Joyce is old, but certainly not cold – and she has quite a few dance moves!
Seventy-eight-year-old Joyce Blenman-Payne was the centre of attention as she danced and pranced during the Barbados Transport Board’s annual Mother’s Day scenic bus tour yesterday.
When the DAILY NATION caught up with the tour at River Bay, St Lucy, the mother of two – along with the more than 1 600 others congregated there to celebrate the special day outdoors.
Blenman-Payne said her offspring were in England teaching, but she was there to enjoy the day with other relatives and friends.
Here, Blenman-Payne is all smiles as she does a “guh down to low town” dance routine, to the delight of other excursionists.
