April Fool's day!
How apt!
I am not sure one should wish other's well or to not to get tricked.
To more serious matters, the big issue for me at the moment is the "Africa problem".
So much has been said about the continent but to most outsiders who have never lived on the continent, so little is known or understood.
My interest has very recently been caught by the highly-educated Economist, Dambisa Moyo whose book "Dead Aid" sounds like a must-read. Two words; Highly recommended.

I have to say a more erudite and timely contemplation of this issue could not be better presented. I can't wait to get my hands on the book which has only just come out here.
If you read it before I do,don't hesitate to let me know what you think!
Over and out!
