Excellent!
good work... the rest of trinidad and tobago needs to be "galvanised"...perhaps south of the caroni??
Interesting. Galvanize... why isn't it "Galvanise"?... anyways... Galvanize should learn a couple smarter ways of galvanizing the masses such as, oh I don't know, making the schedule visible on the front page?
