What’s the Big Idea?
Steve at Our Man in Granada, gawd love him, has given me a great suggestion for reviving my blogging inspiration (and therefore stopping the great exodus of readers from these shores). It great because it means you have to do all the hard work.
So, ask me anything. You can ask me about me, or Namibia, or about something not at all related to me - if I don’t know the answer, I can always try and make up something entertaining yet plausible.
I realise that I have been promising a review of Windhoek’s nightlife for some time, but that is still in the sidelines - that should give you some idea of how kickin’ it is here. Yeah baby - so much goes on, I don’t have the energy to detail it all.
Please ask me something. I’ll just feel unloved if the comments box remains empty (apart from that dead cockroach in the corner).

Wow–what a fantastic service you are offering! Even if you don’t answer the following, I am very glad to have a way to let them out of my own brain to air out a little. (It’s musty-smelling in there, generally.)
Do bugs have muscles like ours? If so, do they have roughly the same number of muscle cells, just proportionately smaller than ours are? Or do they just have fewer of them?
When a subway train pulls into the station, when it is slowing but not stopped, tons of people, including me, tend to start walking in the direction of the train’s travel, as though that’s where the door to the train is going to be, even though none of us knows where the doors will actually end up. Then, once the train stops and we see our guesses were wrong, we’ll go in either direction to get to the door that is closest or otherwise most appealing. Why?
Why can’t I work just half a day today? It seems to me that that would be better.

Ooh! Ooh! Sorry for recommenting, but I just remembered something I’ve always kind of wanted to ask you (and this one may actually inspire you): What are jaffa cakes?

Will the reality program(me) you produce for Namibia TV “Leopard Wrestling: Live from Windhoek” be shown in the US?

What would you put into Room 101 and why?
(re the TV show with Paul Merton not the original Room 101 from 1984, in case you don’t know what I’m on about)

Hi Rach. Answering your cry for help/inspiration, here’s my first posting to your blog:
Tell us about that fantastic gig you attended recently. Local boys? what made it so much better, in your opinion?
Gord………xx
BTW. Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t things in the southern hemisphere (words included) migrate north for the winter? Pedantic point, I realise.
