Hi MC Whilst driving in Nairobi, I came across a pothole that a bus - I mean a real 72 seater - was trying to negotiate. The back wheels disappeared into the hole and there was an almighty graunching sound as the back of the bus hit the ground. The back driving wheels were dangling off the bottom of the pothole. My associate encouraged me to cross pass the bus in our tiny Toyota Corolla. So I tackled the pothole on the diagonal and once out on the other side, the driver behind us said that we had all but disappeared from view! Oh, how I miss driving in Kenya - never a dull moment! DM
Kenyan single mother of one son, THREE enormous dogs and one very cute little one with a perfect kinyaji tail, a couple of tortoises and any other stray that happens to pass through our compound ...... with an update. One of my big dogs sadly died and i have had to give my tortoises away to a new home due to my moving out of mine.
Apart from some other major life changes that we'll get to if you join along, all is well .....
