Jon Apted shared these pictures on Facebook today and I am struck at how this club has become somewhat of a landmark or in my opinion a right of passage if you’ve grown up in Suva.

If those walls could talk, I cringe and laugh at the thought. But for me it’s the place where I had many firsts.

I had my first ‘chuma’ in public, where I knocked out in a bathroom stall, where I most of my flatmates and family worked and lastly where I spent my wedding night getting smashed.

Something vivid I can remember from my party days was getting that Blue VIP Card (I’ve got it somewhere I know I kept it) for the Traps Christmas Party. It was the hottest ticket in town and I was grinning from ear to ear because Gary Apted had put me a 20 something year old on the list.

Go down and have a beer at Traps remember the good times.

#TheVeiqiaProject will support and facilitate the research and generation of new work about Fiji women’s tattoo with an inspiring crew of talented #Fiji women artists! The exhibition will open in March 2016 to coincide with the #PacificArt Association (PAA) International Symposium being hosted by @aucklandmuseum. I’m so pleased to have found a space for this project, filled with lots of natural light, on a bus route and easy to find! Nervously doodling until CNZ grants are announced later this month… Fingers crossed! ✨🙏🏾✨ #TeamFiji #Veiqia

I’m excited about this project!

Fiji Island Chieftans “Get Religion”.

“Far from the tropical heat of their native land, these Fiji Islands chieftans, found good use for their trim waistcoats and vests. Civilization seems to have affected them from the waist up only, for they still wear their native skirts. The visitors are attending the world gathering of the Seventh Day Adventists in San Francisco, and are Ratu Setareki Cevocal [Cevaca?], chief of the Nuku Nuku Lakemba tribe, and Ratu Jiali Tikowale, Chief of the Susa Vos.”

Now I usually hate it when people don’t cite their source...I guess I hate myself now because I can’t find the original source of these images I saved in 2013.

The Seventh Day Adventists was held in San Francisco in May 1930. The Central Union Outlook newsletter (June, 1930) reported that the two chiefs were ‘large strong men and wear native skirt instead of trousers and go barefooted. They brought at war club along, mute evidence of their cruelty before they became Christians.” #eyeroll
