What is one to do? Now known for celebrating Halloween us Brits but when this side of the world you have to join in all the events so here goes another eventful night in Lime! The theme was come dressed in black or green for Halloween-so here you have it!

Victor showed what a whiz he is around balloons at THE calendar launch so we spent the morning blowing them up for him and he did the rest.

What a cheeky little monkey he is!

We didn't get him anything to wear so he donned one of the witches hats.

Beth is a very glamorous WISP!
Well Christine our resident hairdresser brought us back some coloured hair spray and he needed to look the part and it washes out I'm sure!

Tracey with a new hair do also.
Ok me too!
Out in mass now!
Who's that in a silly wig?
Everyone wants to look silly.

Now for Beth's headgear to be passed around.

This cheeky Charlie is game for everything.

OMG what's going on in the other room?

Who is this fine figure of a man? What is occurring?

It's green that's for sure! What is he thinking with that look on his face, Cassidy don't even ponder on it my sweet!

Suddenly he sees that there is a camera around!

Time for the hairspray!
NO STOP IT he's shouting!

Check it out our own little Shrek!

The girls flock to him!

Check out those ears, Cassidy is an absolute star with this get up.

He's very proud true?
Trying to get a close up of those ears!

He decided that his trousers didn't go so what does one do? Take them off of course!

Ummm I wonder what is on his mind now?

A slightly more serious JD than we all know and love.

Time for some more glamour.

Sorry back to Shrek who decided his other white bits needed to be green.

He came at me like something out of Michael Jackson's Thriller and got into the part way too quickly! The wonders of make up, check out Cassidy cracking up in the background.

The place was filling up with people really getting into the party mood.

Jimjam is in the house.

Another great sport.
It was another fantastic night with many giggles throughout, as usual JD was one of a kind and never ceases to amaze us all-HAPPY HALLOWEEN everyone and stay tuned much more blogging to come.

Pizza cook off

Posted by Lime Tours in The Lime BlogOct 17th, 2009 | Comments Off
Here we go the long awaited for pizza cook off, our line all day was taste the rest and vote for the best so here we go bring it on people!

These pair came in to book some tours, had some of our original slime punch and spent the afternoon with the gang in Lime.

First to arrive was the lovely Steve from Pirates pizza with two large pizzas covered in his favourite topping.
Then Holy Moly Walter, of Pedro's pizza was also on time for this event and brought their popular meat lovers and curry chicken.

Then Pepperonis came with their Sicilian meat and vegetarian entries.

Playa longe were next with their entry of barbeque chicken, with those smiles they knew it was going to be good. The lovely Lisa on the right is new to San Pedro along with her hubby and daughter and lots of animals and we are thrilled to have them here.

Barbara brought her pizza from Mermaids, she is also responsible for the balloons and flowers as she owns the Candle Garden in town also.

A good crowd turned out to support the event and fill their tummies with some scrummy pizza for just $10bz.
The bar was heaving with some great residents, along with some absolute muppets mentioning no names-he he! This was Victor's busiest night since joining the gang and he loved it, or so he said.
Christine, one of my BFF and the islands new hairdresser was on hand to help the evening run smoothly as always bless her. She goes back to New Jersey for a rest as there is always something going on around here that she gets roped into!

Here we have some lovely people that have been visiting all week that came to hang out one last time before leaving all too soon.

Check it out, they all came at us fast and furious hence the lack of photos of the food this time as Natasha was away for the weekend. Luckily these photos capture the winning pizzas!

Wade is always right there to get s good taste of them all along with some other foodies. Katy at the front came along even though this one wasn't for the Humane Society she came to give her support as always.

Check out the Arceo ladies who put in a couple of entries and not only add glamour to the evening but a lot of fun too.

Jimjam always in there with the ladies, bless him his wife is away right now so he needs some female comfort and has known these ladies for years.

The gang from Ambergris Today are out in force.


Check out those happy faces, people having a good time and supporting a great cause.

The San Pedro Sun were on the other side of the camera for once and looking very lovely too.

Can't remember which muppet had my camera but you get the idea and it would have been a nice shot otherwise.

Colette on a mission about something she is passionate about, gotta love that girls spark!

Ok maybe I do like the French a wee bit.
Doug from the Funtesea boats which I went on this week and will blog about very soon and his very happy crew.
People patiently waiting to hear who the winners of this cook off are this time.

The beer fairy of the evening aka Tracey serving $3 dollar beers to people that participated in the cook off, how good is that?

Two very glam and naughty women and then there is Maya the little tinker! They form a new group called WISPS which i believe is San Pedro's version of the WI.

Time to count those votes, always time to smile at the camera!

Beth has a new fan club as her pizza was a total hit with these boys.

People eagerly awaiting the results, the papers are there with the camera to snap away.

Trying to get people to be quiet, even with my big mouth was a task and a half.

The first prize for the pizza cook off and winner of these lovely flowers was Patty Arceo who is the mum of the little girl we were raising money for.

Second prize went to Pepperonis pizza who won a bottle of bubbly, then third went to Jim the fisherman from up north of the island who won some chocolates.

This poor beer fairy is all done and the taps are being turned off for the night, cheers from Trace!
The real party now begins after all the food is done and these lovely ladies got the ball rolling in the smoking room-outside!

The group of lovely ladies just kept getting bigger and madder as the night went on.

Barry Bowen stopped by to check that his beer was still flowing well into the night!

Too shy shy-not!
Time for bed!
The lady above never checked to see why her bag was so heavy, then was shocked when I asked to see inside of it! Those Arceo ladies are a lot of fun and very naughty-he he.

This lady keeps a lot of people fed in San Pedro, especially Jimjam while his wife is away, he will not starve!
David Baker stopped by to say hi and support the cause as he always does.

They came they ate and they stayed!

This picture captures the night as it was filled with fun people hanging out having a fun time. Here you have 3 different nationalities joining together with a very happy outcome.

We raised just under $1000.00bz so Lime made it up to that amount and handed it over to the Arceo ladies knowing that it will go towards the lovely Fatima's healthcare.
Thanks to everyone that cooked, came and supported the evening once again helping San Pedro in need.





















































THE Calendar launch

Posted by Lime Tours in The Lime BlogOct 9th, 2009 | Comments Off
Sunday the 4th October came at us which had been long awaited for as we want that calendar out there and selling!

For those that know me well and get my emails at many crazy hours of the morning, would know that when Sharon is up and on a mission everyone should be! Karen just before she got Jackie thrown on her!


Christine was also in the land of nod before I crept in and caught her in that act of sleeping!
These lovely pair were sad to be leaving us especially on the day of our launch but they took a calendar back with them.

These lovely pair are guests up at Reef Village here on an exchange and proved to their husbands just how full of hot air they are!
Not one to be left out and for sure someone else full of gas I joined in.

Bless this new member of Lime and the reason we now say what's hot what's not ask the gang at Lime now, Victor one to pitch in also.Come on matey stop slacking.
Tracey trying to rent out golf carts with all this going on, don't people know we are fundraising for the animals today and not selling anything in Lime!

You can't have enough balloons as victor is now realising.
Jd put himself in charge of clear up out the front of Lime bless him. It was noted that he looked good with a broom and maybe should be invited to join WISP!
This superstar Beth Hart named herself the banger bitch at the end of the day as she was rolling out those hot dogs fast and furious. Bangers are the term for the British sausages that we have managed to get a hold of.Time for a quick cheers and pat on the back for getting this place ready and looking so cute. Beth and Christine are such prominent members of FOTHS and have always supported every fund raiser we have done this year. They never tire of my ideas and getting roped into things, well at least they never say!
This little kitten was found early this morning and brought in by our local lads, happy ending as she was adopted by lunchtime. Cassidy is a total animal lover and looking more glam than ever after her new haircut by Christine.
Marie and Ella after doing the green cross code and making is safely while Phil parks the buggie.
Not one to be late she came bursting into Lime to see what was needed to be done before she grabbed a beer.
Ella went straight to the treat drawer and waited till one of us gave her a cookie lady dog biscuit.

Check out this other beauty with her new haircut by yes non other than Christine who is giving the women of San Pedro complete new styles.This calendar lovely is January and for the record is number one in my book also after her non stop energy on Sunday. She wrote in every one that was put in front of her a lovely quirky and individual message. Great to meet and get to know new people in this wee island of ours.
Some more glamour on the next table, Jo who thought she could hide in the bar and Colette who was trying to hide behind sunglasses!
Umm an empty table because the Pedro gang were very late and both on Belizean time, next event will tell them it starts at 10.00am!
Star the owner of Moondancer and sundancer in town is a huge supporter of Saga and Lime and a very good friend of Christine. She adds to the glamour and vibrance of any event.
Another active FOTHS member Denise Lee was on hand to help where needed.

Helda and Isobella dropped by to get their calendar and have us all sign it, very happy to be here by the looks of those smiles.It wouldn't be an event without Jo and the megaphone which he loves to be in charge of.

More hot dogs and burgers, this is a new acquisition to Lime and we are thinking it will be very popular, especially the chilli dogs.
Check out that smile, our Cinders still as bubbly as always and always ready with that cheeky grin.Naomi, looking like a little princess, well she is one true?
Tammy from Hummingbird bought 5 calendars and kept us all busy signing them for her.

Tracey came through from the bar side to see what was going on in the tour side, busy busy busy everywhere in Lime today like all other fund raising days.Christine whizzing around keeping us all on our toes.

She looks so like a school teacher as she had her desk just right all day long and kept the raffle seperate from the calendar sales bless.
Amy Knox from Wild Mangoes looking very glam out of an apron, another huge supporter of Saga.
These are Amy's two little ones growing up very quickly.
People gave the boys their raffle tickets so they were very keen for us to draw it.
As always there was a crowd out in the smoking room.
This is one of my favourite strays and lived at the beach near Banyan Bay until this lucky day as she got adopted.
The mayor and Miss World Belize came and graced us with their presence which was very special and we were all thrilled as were they.
Is she cute or what, good luck young lady.
Things were winding down on the sales side but we were very happy with the turnout and sales made on the day. Over $3000.00 is going into the isolation unit account tomorrow.

One very tired but seriously happy Sharon B otherwise known as Boydie, Shazza, Bridget of Belize and many unprintable names.It had been a crazy few days leading up to this and I can honestly say it has been worth it as I know we are helping the animals of San pedro one step at a time. Thank you so much for all the support both financially and phsyically, we have a lot of fun and helping great causes along the way cheers and TTFN.
