Come get some
Jouvay on
Sunday before the break of day!
In
London the festival starts before dawn but officially
is set as 6am to 10am on Ladbroke Road in Notting Hill for
Carnival Sunday.
Part of the tradition involves smearing paint, mud, or oil
on the participants known as Jab Jabs.
Brooklyn
New York is home to the 2nd largest J'ouvert after
Trinidad's Port of Spain. No amplified music is allowed
letting the steel bands dominate the vibe.
J'ouvert is
celebrated on many islands, including Barbados, Antigua &
Barbuda, Grenada, St. Vincent, St. Thomas St. Lucia and the Grenadines, St. Kitts
and Nevis, Trinidad and Tobago, the U.S. Virgin Islands and
the British Virgin Islands.
The fellow above is from the July 2006

| The Royal Borough of
Kensington and Chelsea provide temporary toilets for
Carnival participants and visitors. These consist of
chemical toilets and pissoir type urinals. Two permanent
manned toilet sites are also open for Carnival.
The Council will provide
266 Chemical toilets and 5 pissoir/urinal type toilets for
male visitors. There will also be a number of wheelchair
accessible lavatories.
To site these toilets some
resident bays and Pay and Display bays must be suspended.
The Council places prominent parking suspension signs in the
affected areas giving residents advance notice of the
temporary loss of parking. Once the toilets are in place,
the Council will check each site and remove any suspension
notices that are no longer needed.
To assist the public to
find the toilets over 100 signs are attached to lampposts
pointing to the direction of the nearest toilet.
During the Carnival, two
officers are employed to monitor all toilets. They ensure
the sites are open and are clean. Two plumbers are also
employed to carry out repairs and ensure the all the
appliances function properly.
Toilet Hire UK and Best Loo
Ltd., provide staff for the temporary toilets and the two
permanent facilities from 10.00 am to 10.00 pm. Their role
is to keep the toilets secure, clean, ensure all consumables
are replenished and that defects are reported for repair.
The supplier will maintain
the Chemical toilets and they will be cleansed every hour.
The Pissoir/Urinal facilities will also be monitored.
