Africa: The home of Low Technology and Firm Determination

Now this what Portable means to this hard-headed business man, in the non-consumerist world! Never mind your iPods.


This the local pickup truck heading to work!


I think this is truly fantastic and a must for every student flat! Hot water from a cold tap!


So how else do you get the goat to the market? The trick is how to get him to hold on with those cloven hooves! Room for one on top! Mind the Gap!


Right! Now your full! Get going and no speeding this time!


When we say we are closed, we are closed! Why should we explain to you! You can go away now, quickly please!


Emergency which service please? No, don't worry the Ambulance is on it's way! We are using the fastest donkey we have!


What? How do you know it's wrong? It said 'SPOT' before we got here! Is that an Ambulance walking towards us?


Special Offer! This week only! No Fuel! Take it or leave it! Your choice!
