Dear Zambia,
I read on another thread someone mentioned kapenta. All of a sudden I got hungry and wanted to eat a big lump of nshima with kapenta. The only problem is that I can't find genuine kapenta here where I live. If I send someone some cash in Zambia, can you please mail me some kapenta? I can trust you on your word. But if you eat my money I will put a witchcraft spell on you. You will grow a sixth finger on each hand. Seriously. Any takers on this business deal proposal?
There will be a small fee for your trouble. How does K10,000 sound? I'm cheap, I know. But K10,000 for doing almost nothing. That's not too bad. Just walk to the market, buy kapenta, wrap it up in an air-tight container (so customs here will not smell it) and walk to the post office and mail it to me. Hmm, now it's beginning to sound like a load of labour involved. How about I make it K100,000 for your trouble? How's that? any takers?
