Chester does seem favourite for location and price. Would like cheaper but cannot find anything central. Does anyone know of any good self-catering apartments for rent in central nairobi?

Prices starting from 90$, very central, walking distance from All hot spots. Large apartments, secure access, not newly built but accommodating.

Kind regards.

Since these hotels have not been mentioned, do I assume they are not GF? ALso, does anyone else have a GF hotel besides the Chester House? I have RTFF, but not much in there about this, and the last time I was in Nairobi it cost me almost double to bring in company!

I used that last time I was here a few years ago and it was great, very GF with at least 3 different ways in. However prices seem to have gone through the roof there now.

P. S. A note to Jackson. As a fellow stickler for proper punctuation and a grammarian like yourself, you should know that since you changed your server / software, there is a sort of fascistic spell / grammar-check in effect which works to the detriment of expository writing.

For example, in the above post I have tried to convince your software that I really do want the word "won't" WITHOUT an apostrophe (I. E."tendency" or "inclination") , but your server is convinced I am a dolt and mean to type the contraction of "will not."

[snip]

I have similar beef : I always like to make a distinction between an absolute statement (which is supposed to end with a period or an exclamation mark, if I remember right) and what I'd like to call a "trailing thought" which would apply in situations where I don't (yet) have a strong opinion. I like to end my trailing thoughts with multiple periods (.) to indicate that I feel somewhat ambivalent about what I just said, but that gets always "corrected" on ISG to a single period.

2. : I like to hyphenate as well, but that always seems to be a red flag to ISG's "Grammar Nazi"

3. We were taught in GrammarSchool that you use " I. E." in order to explain something in greater detail. The ISG spell checker, without fail, changes that to "I. E" which according to my old Latin teacher just ain't the same.

In any case. And never mind grammar and interpunctation irritants. I'd encourage you to check out the scene in Kampala before you visit MBA. There ain't much likelyhood that the super hot Uganda girls who I met in MBA are the only ones reared in that culture.

Yes, it's sad that the quality of the forum software has deteriorated so much with the new vBulletin™ Version 4. 1.0. I'm glad I didn't renew my ISG subscription!

However, there is a work around for some of the Nazi spell check madness: Insert some BB Code to break up the character sequence.

- Wont.

- "trailing thought". . . (Here the Nazi spell check will insert an extra space, but you still get the multiple periods.)

I came across this blog, supposedly written by a Nairobi hooker, working on Koinange Street with stories about the adventures of a working girl in Nairobi.

If it's really written by the girl she must have at least an university education, looking at the style and the "philosophies" of the short stories.

On the other hand it might come from a clever journalist (or probably ghost-writer) , also because it seems to be a somehow commercial undertaking, as one can subscribe to the stories, listen to audio-clips or even order an "E-book", all for money of course, all be it just a few shillings.

The stories are entertaining though.

Episode 6 should be made compulsory readin for every aspiring Captain Save-a-Hoe.

Well spotted, very good tales of the night. I think every member should read the seven tales. This reminds me of 'Belle de Jour, diaries of a call girl' serialised in a newspaper, a book and two series on the television back home. Based on a working girl in London paying her way through medical school. The publishing house like your Kenyan girl will have had a ghost writer to add that extra 'je ne sais quoi! 'The media at the time were desperate to find out the girl's real identity, while many normal girls found that the oldest profession in the world was more attractive than they orignally thought!

I hope the girl in this case makes something out of it because when I walk to Madhouse, I pass those girls on Koinange St and it is definitely not the upper end of the business, in a really quite menacing environment.

I liked the expression such as referring to a pro as : "dealers in horizontal refreshments"

A very good account from 'Fun and Sun' of the potential pitfalls in Nairobi. I have had similar situations when sitting alone eating a meal or having a drink in Nairobi.

If somebody says Hello, I will be polite to people and only carry on the conversation, if it is a good looking woman! Men stand no chance because I am in Kenya on love safari and men don't come into that equation. If guys try and sit at the same table, I always tell them that friends are about to arrive and I need the table. Yes, I know as we have heard the girls are invariably up to something as well but there is 50% less chance of me being scammed. Blunt and to the point but has probably saved me from many scams in my search for nirvana with the ultimate hottie.

Anyway, on a lighter note some of us must have had some great exploits to recount recently instead of all of this doom and gloom.
