I can bet back then, many people couldnt afford N2500 you bought the car for. Salaries were probably in kobos then, Right?

Yes u are right

If you were anything other than dull, i would refer to you as such. You are not. You are just dull. And i do enjoy my job because of people like you. It gives me a lot of satisfaction. Best thing in the world. And please don't go. You are duller than most on this forum and it's really intriguing. Plus it's still early.

Dude, like I said whatever u wish to refer to me as means absolutely nothing to me. I will sleep, eat, work, hang out with my pals, gist on NL and live my life as always. Nothing do me jor!
Hehehehehe @ duller than most on this forum. That really cracked me up!
Time to start my day here. Cheers!

The days when petrol was #5/litre, solo cocacola was#10, 35cl was #15, orobo was #20.

Imagine, so 35cl of coca cola was worth 3 litres of petrol? now one liter of petrol is #145 while the coca cola is #50.

Dull people don't have fantastic days. It's a proven fact.

@op, u did not remember to put the price of laptop and Iphone....

Comparing Ancient Days with Flight Age is of no essence bro/sis!

The moniker was inspired by the title of a book I am presently writing. I only substituted a word for "Nairaland"

Which one is obedience money!!

If you compare the price of GOLD at that time, and the amount of Gold that N250 and N10 could buy, with the price of a Cow and 5 Fowl today, you should find that these items cost the same amount of GOLD today- and that that has not changed.

Considering I mentioned it in my first comment to you and u didn't remember, shows that the "as.s" part of the word has a much higher degree in defining u, smart ass.

U have got to be kidding me! I own over 200 books myself. Mostly fiction of my fave authors though. I have run out of shelf space. Who are ur fave authors and what's the title of the best book you ever read?

Over 200?

Wow, my type of woman. My very type of woman.

My favorite authors are, in no particular order, Wole Soyinka, Ernest Hemingway (this man was a genius), Chinua Achebe, William Golding, Edgar Mittelholzer. I just fell in love with Adichie after reading Purple Hibiscus. Now, I have all her novels (the three of them) though I have my reservations about Americanah but I am proud to keep it.

I intend to begin collecting Stephen King's books. I love horror stories.

It is hard to pick my favourite book. But I love "Ake" by Wole Soyinka. It is still the best book I have ever read. That book was instrumental in helping Soyinka win the 1986 Nobel Prize in Literature.

Now, it is your turn? Your favorite authors and your favorite book.

Noooo waaaay!
You love horror too? I thought I was literally the only Nigerian into that genre. I love horror - almost have the complete works of Stephen King. Then there is John Saul etc.
Alas, I don't do African authors. Did those in my early teens.
Fave authors are Robert Ludlum (my genius), King, Frederick Forsyth, Sidney Sheldon, Agatha Christie and Belva Plain.
My best novel - btw the Bounre Series and Belva Plain's "Evergreen".
I also collect James Patterson, Jonathan Kellerman, Thomas Harris and Dean koontz.
My latest acquisition...the complete works of HG Wells...in hardcover no doubt! A classicccccc!!!
