The Black Market


Here in Mozambique we have this horrible thing known as the the black market. its a very bad place. and here is why: it feeds the theft around the city. people steal things...such as lights off of cars. . . and sale them on the black market. then the owner has to go buy them back at the black market. this has happened to my car twice now in the past month. and each time it has cost me $120 to get the lights back. what a waste.

T.I.M. (this is mozambique)

Hi Sarah

Do as I (and many other Moz old hands) do: either rivet steel strips over the lenses or crack them slightly rendering them valueless.
