  Perhaps Roger Federer should take a leaf out of the bestseller;"HOW TO GUARANTEE YOURSELF A WIN" by Uncle BOB !...

• It must be the weather

  Posted on Thursday July 3rd, 2008 at 03:42 in corruption, kenya, Mugabe, Zimbabwe, kimunya

  You know over here in these parts, winter has truly set in with temperatures dropping to 11 degrees in the morning (Shocking isn’t it I know), and actually I am sure that one of these mornings I shall awake to snow falling on my roof. I'm sure all...

• Zimbabwe ...... er, votes ??

  Well, Zimbabwe went to the polls yet again today to vote for their, er, "candidate of choice", in the Presidential run off. The competition was fierce, Mugabe was quietly confident and expressed hope for a clear majority. The voters rushed to the p...

  This is yesterday's cartoon from The Standard;The caption reads; "See, He's scared I'm going to beat him in a free and fair fight!", and it was pointed out to me by one of my commentators (- you see, I DO get nice ones as well!)I hear that Tsvangirai...

• What Zim looks like from here ...

  Here in Kenya, our fabulous coalition government couldn’t get through yet another day without arguing. This time it was about protocol, the PM got to speak before the VP, suggesting apparently, that the VP is therefore more senior than the PM. T...

  I'm fed up with talking about the mad Uncle Bob arsing about in Zimbabwe, and our "coalition" here in Kenya that cannot even agree on Step One - "Let's name the government", which by the way, has extremely little chance of being named today as promi...

  Posted on Saturday March 29th, 2008 at 07:48 in kenya, Mugabe, Zimbabwe, eck

  This morning Zimbabwe goes to the polls and from Kenya, the land of successfully dodgy elections, I think we should be wishing all Zimbabweans jolly good luck. Independent polls put the opposition in a landslide victory position but the only ‘g...
