Still stood somewhere else.

Although after one year I thought that I would no longer be stood in the Congo and instead back in a queue in Asda, Leicester, it seems in fact with the arrival of my work permit that I am now to stay for a few more months on this side of the Sahara.

Although the Stood in the Congo blog will continue, I am however no more in DRC and instead in Kenya. Stood in the Maasai Mara to be precise, where you will find a photo a day.

A Maasai ‘queue’. More photos on Flickr.

There’s a scattering of me in a few other places here and there as well.

And I used to be here, and also here.

Queues of Zimbabwe

From the Sokwanele blog which I’ve been following these past few months, are two unfortunate queue stories. The photo above is for a queue just to get into a supermarket, and today Sokwanele posted on a queue which you actually have to pay to be in.

“It is now common that commuters have to pay to queue. If you do not pay for a spot in the queue the touts simply shove you out the way for the person who has. Their retort is that if you have money to travel you have money to queue.”
