It’s getting bad for us okes here in Bullies …
Hey but it’s getting cold in Bullies and not much looking good here.
I went to buy smokes at the garage yesterday, you can’t get petrol, oil or even air at a garage any more, but the kiosks are still pretty good. But they run out of my brand. I couldn’t believe it – Zim the kings of tobacco and we can’t even get my favourite fags anymore.
Then I tried to get some beers for me and cooldrinks for a treat for my sister’s kids – running out of those too. Yasses, you can’t smoke yourself to death here and you can’t get pissed either. Never mind the insane price of the drinks you can get, now I been told the reason you can’t get drinks is that the bottling company has got no money to bring in the bottle tops.
Then I heard about the new zupco buses mugarbage has brought in from China, one of my mates at work told me he checked one come on its ass in Harare last week because the geniuses in our transport ministry brought in low clearance vehicles that can’t get over the capital’s speed humps never mind our buggered urban roads, huge big potholes and rural dirt tracks. What a bunch of wallies.
I used to laugh at the okes on mud island slaving away in the freezing cold, but these days it’s looking like I gotta get my skinny ass over there too.
