Our Man in Malawi: January 2010
http://ourmaninmalawi.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Our Man in Malawi. Friday, 15 January 2010. Time to do the Rain Dance. Here the seasons are changing and becoming more volatile. I am not a scientist so will not claim to know how severe this is and whether indeed judging it over such a short period is a valid exercise but this year it is hitter and dryer than it is ‘meant to be’. Thankfully on the flip side Petrol and Diesel are back to normal so lets hope we get some rain and Malawi can build on its record of 4-5 strong growth years for the economy.
Our Man in Malawi: November 2009
http://ourmaninmalawi.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Our Man in Malawi. Friday, 27 November 2009. Diesel queues, forex searches, private jets. Probably for the first time in my 15 months here I feel compelled to write something that lacks a positive angle. This may be scaremongering but there is undeniably a bit of gloss coming off the second term of the President, especially since there are so few variables which have changed in the economy here. The tobacco harvest was fine, prices were lower but this was known about for months, so how do you reach s...
Our Man in Malawi: April 2009
http://ourmaninmalawi.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Our Man in Malawi. Monday, 27 April 2009. Last week we moved house, not out of choice. During March, we were broken into three times at our home in central Blantyre. In Malawian circles these were petty incidents: outside taps stolen, part of the guest house toilet and some of the security razor wire pinched (the irony of thieves stealing an anti theft wire was not lost on us). Anyway we will start again from our new home and focus on the main reason we are here: our work (my wife works as a Physiotherap...

Our Man in Malawi: March 2009
http://ourmaninmalawi.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Our Man in Malawi. Monday, 23 March 2009. Not some Enigma code to crack but something that was written on my recent drivers’ licence application in Malawi. Development experts always talk about the need to create a framework for outside investment and a culture that encourages capital and people to ‘do business’. If it takes four hours to get a drivers licence, how long do you think it takes to get a business permit or a loan or planning permission for a project? Monday, 9 March 2009. Travelled to Chipat...

Our Man in Korea | travelling around Korea, and beyond
What’s it about? Our Man in Korea. Travelling around Korea, and beyond. Buam-dong – quietly cool. Asymp; 1 Comment. Behind the old fortress wall in the mountains north-west of Gyeongbuk Palace, Buam-dong has all the good things that Seoul’s trendier neighbourhoods have, with the added benefit of a slightly remote, peaceful location. Buam-dong’s mountain background, low brick buildings and quiet streets make you wonder if this is Seoul at all. This restaurant boasts that its stew is made without MSG or ot...

our man in lettings
Our man in lettings. Bluedoor is the Unusual Agent. What makes us unusual? Read on and you will see. Tuesday, June 05, 2012. This is the beautifully restored County Hall of Abingdon with one of the Jubilee Beacons alight on the roof on Monday 4th June. Whatever people say about Abingdon itself, the people here really know how to put on a good party! The weather was damp but buns were thrown, food was shared and neighbours chatted. What's not to like? Saturday, May 26, 2012. Monday, May 07, 2012. If you a...

BONERS: The Good Thief. My rating: 5 of 5 stars. I loved this book so much that I may just have contracted my mother's bizarre fascination for books featuring orphans. (Oliver Twist just jumped up 200 places on my to-read list.) Megan Abbott once said that for stories to work they have to move and devastate. This did both to me in spades. Hannah Tinti is someone I'm keeping an eye out for, this was incredible. View all my reviews. My rating: 3 of 5 stars. View all my reviews. My rating: 4 of 5 stars.

Our Man in Mexico
Our Man in Mexico. Friday, May 9, 2008. Win Scott and Empire. Libertarian blogger Jacob Hornberger picks up one key finding of "Our Man in Mexico:" that Win Scott had numerous top Mexican officials on the CIA payroll. . In return, Mexican officials would look the other way as the CIA used Mexico as a base of operations to achieve regime change in Cuba entailing the ouster or assassination of Cuban president Fidel Castro. Your can read Hornberger's entire post here. Saturday, April 19, 2008. Some people s...

Our Man in Monrovia
Our Man in Monrovia. A year in Liberia, West Africa. Friday, September 22, 2006. Let Justice Be Done To All Men . but only those who can afford to pay for it. It’s been a while . Well 7 months actually I say, my brother, wah hapin? I lost track of time. A lot has happened since my last entry. I’ve got a new job working on a legal assistance project - much more exciting than training a new Army For Looting (yes, that does mean I’ve decided to stay in Liberia for a while longer). But at least his lawyer ha...
Chris Barrell Our Man in Monze
Chris Barrell Our Man in Monze. Mainly a live diary from Zambia my blog also includes some updates while I am in the UK and always thinking about my next visit. Sunday, July 9, 2017. Last Day in Monze. Power this year has been good – until today! But more importantly I have been suffering from a lack of tea! I am getting my caffeine fix now. I know a lot has happened and I seem to have been very busy! I am still meeting friends – some that I even remember! I have passed on books to those who requested th...
