Fish Friday in Grenada, markets crash on economy fears, and the World Football phone-in.

It's Fish Friday in Grenada and Dotun visits a chocolate factory. We talk all things Caribbean football in the World Football phone-in, and stock markets crash on economy fears.

Dotun Adebayo with stories from around the world. 
It's Fish Friday in Grenada, where they're also getting ready to celebrate the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Dotun is in the fishing village of Gouyave. We hear lots of local voices and discuss why Fish Friday is such a big event on the island.

For the World Football Phone-in, we speak to guests and callers from across the Caribbean. Lester Smith, the technical director of the Grenada football association, talks about how the game is being developed on the island. Ian Burnett, the sports editor at the Jamaica Observer, tells us about how the Spice Boys are getting on. Plus there are our regulars, Sean Wheelock, and the legendinho, Tim Vickery.

Stock markets have seen steep falls due to the bad economic news coming out of the USA. David Mann from Standard Chartered bank in New York says the lack of jobs growth will be bad news for President Obama's election hopes, and Michael Arnold from the Wall Street Journal tells us about the effect that a drop in manufacturing in the Far East is having on the rest of the world.
