CHAPTER 2 - MY FAMILY IS BACK!!!!

Good morning my pipol,
thanks for the comments, keep them coming. A little laughter in the morning works wonders for the whole day.

Deep into Chapter 2
MY FAMILY IS BACK!!!!!
Oh yes, last week, I was in the UK tidying up, completing the rental of the house, saying hello once again to my family after being away for three months and preparing them for their return to Naija. E don happen oh!!! They have all now been shipped back to leafy VGC (well, very leafy compared to the rest of Lagos) and ensconded in our house with the big gen.

By the way, installation of the gen cost me £400 and after buying diesel worth £50 to test the gen, I was told that my diesel didn't even move the meter from zero so I had better go and buy some more diesel befittting my new status as a big gen owner. Obviously the gen is going to cost more than a second wife...

Anyway, where was I before being distracted by my gen (A Nigerian should sing a song going "you remind me of my gen"). Anyway, the family is home, we have lined up assessment tests with Corona Lekki, Greensprings and Meadowhall, all very proper schools befitting the Lekki catchement area, where my madam can quickly fit into the Lekki Wifes Association via introductory references from very proper 4x4 driving from parents at the school (we don't have a 4x4 yet, we hope they will still accept us), we are seeking membership of VGC Club and I am still doing my 5am morning wake to leave the house 5.45am and be at work for 7am.

At least, let the family be happy, and then I can seek my own happiness...

I propose that 'the gen' from here on be called 'Jen'or even 'Jenny' depending on how happy you are with her performance cos this piece of equipment really does sound like a high maintenance wife. At that price of installation it should provide much more than just light. Its not Nigeria that should be singing but the gen...(oops, i meant Jen)
