Ni ya leo ni ya leo

vendor 1:"Ni ya leo ni ya leo"
vendor 1: "mia mbili",
vendor 2: "two hundred"

Do not be fooled by the figures being shouted in two different languages, its not to address those who do not hear either tongue, its a cumulative figure between the two

I have come in search of some mtush[second hand clothes], I have been threatened with the Kenya uniform phenomenon that plagued my dear sisters in the late 90s. Call it coincidence but thats the third guy I have seen in the beloved colours of my favourite polo shirt from "Mr bei".

This is the result of not having enough shops selling unique outfits, we have to settle for the bundles they bring to all their outlets, I wish they would get more original and bring only a handful of one design then my nightmares would be fewer, let someon else pick another design and I can brag that I have new clothes.

Sigh that polo shirt now cannot leave my estate gate lest I bump into a few more of my my fellow country men adorning their natural tan with one or maybe next time I might visit a pal and find that he went through the same thing and his wife has now turned his orphaned tshirt into a floor rag.

I could get traumatised for life.

Anyway, these T-shirts and polo shirts I am stretching in my hands seem like they will fit me nicely and I am certain I will not bump into anyone at least not in the next decade wearing the same thing I am wearing or claiming to have one like it at home.
