Boots
Out with the old in with the new, there is nothing wrong with wearing
Timberland boots, in order to move to a higher plateaux as you start to earn
more money you aught to be able to invest in a pair of suade boots, the
ambitious post graduate gentleman knows that suade boots can look either
distinguished or laid back, depending on how you wear them. Pair them with
jeans and a cardigan on the weekend, or a grey suit/straight fit trousers and a
jumper during the working week. The possibilities are endless.

Bags
Your choice of bag can make or break your look. When wearing a suit you
shouldn’t carry a shoulder bag from another genre e.g. sports, or casual as
your outfit falls into the smart category by default. Ideally you want to opt
for a sleek classic and timeless briefcase.
Socks
If running low on socks, buy a batch of identical socks e.g. black/navy
dress socks, Invisible trainer socks, tube socks etc as required. These can be
bought online, or during a lunch break, on the way home from work there are no excuses for poor quality socks with holes in them.

Snakes
Did you know that a
severed snake head can still attack and emit venom up to an hour after being
beheaded?
Why Not Watch A Football Match?
Football fans would be
happy to know that when in Ghana champion’s league fixtures are shown without
fail at certain night spots on Wednesday. Why not go and watch a football match
at the stadium. Outside of Accra prices are a little cheaper. Interestingly in
Ghana’s second city it costs C2 to see a match at the stadium and C7 for premiership
fixtures.
Bantuma High street.
A busseling street lined with various night spots, serving a variety of bottled
continental, local and non alcoholic beverages. It is a lively place to relax
and nightlife can be lively however bare in mind that in Ghana going out on the
town is reserved for Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights as these seem
to be when all the actual hotels and clubs are open for business. Exceptions to
the rule include match days when in Kumasi Wednesday and Sunday.
Ghana–Taxis Part 2
There are two mains
types of taxis in Ghana, Dropping taxis and shared taxis, The dropping system
works in the same way that a taxi cab operates. There are also shared taxis
that have travel along a planed route and have a fixed price per person who
wishes embarks on the journey to the agreed location, these shared taxis work
exactly the same as a tro tro does. The main difference is that Ghanaian taxis
are not metered therefore take note of how much you pay for journeys as prices
inflate during rush hour and you will need to negotiate a fair price. Taxis
account for 80% of road vehicles on the road and are relatively in expensive
compared to western standards.
Ghana–Taxis
Brightly coloured taxi
cabs , typically battered old Peugeots with orange wing panels, a fire
extinguisher in the dash board, a brightly coloured air freshener with the
united states flag juxtaposed onto it habging from the wing mirror, seats that
come in a variety of materials, including leather, foam, material. And there is
often a random surprise in the boot, spare tyre, boiler or a huge hole.

I Like It A Lot - Guide To Ghana
Accra is relatively
crime free however never assume that crime doesn’t exist everywhere, statistics
would suggest that violent crimes against tourists remain low in comparison to
Nairobi, Lagos, or Johannesburg. That being said bag snatching, also hold up’s
at gun point and knife point are most likely to happen after dark off popular
beach resorts such as Oxford Street and around Osu etc. It pays to be
streetwise, follow rules of urban survival as you would in any urban city . in
general I have not witnessed anything that would lead me to believe that Accra
in general is a cause for concern, as it seems as safe and hassle free as any
other African city once you get used to the street urchins and hawkers.
I Like It A Lot - Guide To Ghana
Accra mall is located
near Sprintex road by Tetteh Quarshie Circle, home to the usual fried fast food
joints, the mall is also home to Rhapsody a trendy new South African restaurant
specialising in meat and game, excellent cocktails and tasty food, the ice
cream still had icicles in it and cost C7 I regretted order it and would prefer
to have had a fan ice instead. The portions were meagre and the steak that came
with what looked like the best combination on the menu * Laurel and Hardy*
C35.00 was tiny. And the portion of chips came on a side plate that looked as
if were kids sized, the entire meal left me pissed off thinking I could make
better at home. The highlight of the evening without a doubt were the
cocktails, most notably the Taxi Cab, Rhapsody transform’s into a club with
live music on Thursday, Friday and Saturday therefore the venue is over 23’s
only after 6pm.
