For those who tuned into this blog for its economic and investment focused analysis, please bear with me as there are a few more matters to settle about the good times to be had in Nigeria/Lagos/Island/Lekki (God please let me get a place on the Island and not on the mainland) - please forgive me if you live on the mainland, what can I say?
More good times as follows
1. I was asking my colleague about which beaches are good. Suprised? People tend to forget that Lagos has a beachy shoreline. Lekki Beach, Alako Beach, Bar Beach of old and other beaches you can drive to far out of Lagos, where they are less agressive and will not steal your possessions if you dare turn your back and where you can have a nice relaxing time. Lekki itself is about 10minutes from a beach as the vulture flies.
2. I was supposed to go and see Iron Man last Sunday. Surprised? Nu Metro showing was 5.30pm and 8pm, I didn't have a showing time for Silverbird and as it was past 5.30pm I had to pass as I had work the next day and had to go home to iron my shirts before they took light (only joking)
3. Quite a number of restaurants to choose from including that Brazilian one where they serve you meat untill you keel over
4. My colleague (who as you can gather by now updates me on how to live well) told me that she and her fiance spent 4 hrs in a very nice spa getting a manicure, pedicure, facial, massage and steam (I don't know who got what) all for N12,000, the equivalent of £45.
There you go, the wonder that is Lagos (oops, sorry the Island)

Muna,
I enjoy reading your blog.Keep it coming. Abel too has been spending more time in Abuja and I'm no fan of Nigeria. But being the supportive wife I'm supposed to be, I watch his progress and that of any other "diasporean" who has made the move. Just in case, that move is in my future.
