You've just brought back old memories.That guy was my all time best fiction writer.

It's interesting how he was so popular in Africa,but not in Europe,I've mentioned him few times over here amongs white friends,they never heard of him.

I guess it comes out to relativity.

I went on this with another member somewhere on NL a few weeks ago.

At the end of the day that OP then fessed up that they didn't pay full price for everything. Church member gave a deal on I think roofing, bricklayer was father in law, etc, etc

I just think that folks that are going to start building do a proper due diligence so they don't reach the bottom of the financial pot with a half completed building because they thought they could build X square feet with X naira.

One of the truer guiding price points is a member whose userid I cannot remember at the moment. he has built in Ilorin and Lekki/Ajjah and is who I'll call a rooted person.

Anyways just another opinion.

Very correct. You won't believe what I'm doing for N3m (Villa Rosa). The thing is that I bought the structure and land for N800k and ensure* that the seller got a roof over his head before embarking on the journey because I knew he'll be wowed when he sees what I've turned his old property into. When the time is set, I'll upload pictures. It's a very exciting project.

But can I replicate the same for a client, yes and maybe but it'll be a very tough one.

I wonder why most people don't consider repurposing. Buy dirt cheap properties and remodel into something modern.

_______
* ensure ~ I gave him free architectural drawing for a modern 2 bed flat. Gave him 50 bags of cement, 1 sand and 1 stone for free. I also gave him guys to get him off ground. He's happy, I'm happier.

My lips are sealed as I just came out of a 3 day ban for gods sakes grin

Hehehehe! Just resumed from a 3-day ban too! grin

Its a classic case of "The Blind, ruling the Sighted"! shocked shocked
Those Plebs Suen handed the "Power" of Moderator, think its a tool for vengeance on those who dont kowtow to their opinion and childish analysis.

I get banned an average of twice a week, one of those @Mods even make it a habit of looking out for me so a ban can be quickly applied!

I find it amusing, childish but engaging at times. undecided

But anytime l am unbanned", l will simply "SPEAK as l like to".
They can go Phuck themselves for alll care.

Damn! Let me help you out... some of my collections now in PDF format. (I had all his release when I was in my prime smiley
I love them all. Never get tired of James Hadley Chase. Few of his books were made into movies in USA.

Hajji M.


Aaah, You bring back memories!

I read every one of those James Hadley Chase Novels, sometime into the early hours of the day ....and my Mum use to wonder how l will go to school by 7:30am when l am still up and reading Chase by 3am in the middle of the night! grin grin
I also read all the series of classics like Robert Ludlum, Jefrey Archer and a host of others.

I have a Library of these Novels hoping my children will take interest in them (one asked me if they were supposed to be "inheritance"... the way l cherish them! shocked shocked ) but kids of today are too glued to their IPAD and Game Console, to even consider opening a paper-Back Novel.

Let me ask Hajji, where did you get the PDF of those Books? It would be appreciated if you can share the link?
I am thinking, maybe, just maybe, if l put it on the IPAD of these children, they might have a change of heart and read Novels.

My opinion on this is not going to be popular but I would absolutely use the services of Brabus if I could afford him.

I partly blame the clients in most of the snaffles I read. I simply don't think he can manage a turnkey project unsupervised, not because he's inept but because of various competing deliverables.

I like the joke Boss. But will Brabus ever be engaged in any of my projects?? I hate fights and controversy.
Not even if I become another Dasuki, and drinking money like water. smiley
Anyway, if EgunMogaji can't afford him, how can I afford him.
