Life in ole jooking board yet

There was once a time when no self-respecting housewife would be without a jooking board.

It was touted as the best way to get clothes clean. It was a technique, people claimed.

But with the advent of washing machines, the trusty jooking board appeared to have disappeared from the mainstream Barbadian psyche. However, Johnathon Maynard appears to be trying to keep it alive.

He made a sale to a customer in Heroes Square, The City, last Friday, who quickly tucked it under his arm and went his merry way before our roving photographer could ask his name. (HLE)
