We've gone through quite a lot of fans in Grenada. We buy them and they break, so we buy more. This fan was the first one we bought. It lasted longer than any other fan. It made it through several child-related crashes, but somehow pulled through. At the end it didn't look like much, couldn't oscillate or stand upright, but it had a good heart. Then one day last week it couldn't take the abuse anymore and passed on. As usual, it was picked up off the curb before the trash collectors came. I wish I knew who picks up my trash and fixes it - I would rather just pay them to fix it for me.

I always have a hard time getting rid of something that has been so important to me (for me it's often my watch when it's no longer ticking). You know, we never had a fan in Grenada, but our apt. in SVG came with one. If I had realized how wonderful it was to have a fan, we would've bought at least two in Grenada!!
Like loosing one of the family. Good by ol-reliable.......
Love
