When I said I was going to make a trip for a wedding, I wanted to go and really have fun. But somethings are trying to mess up with my fun.

First it was the driver and his kabukabu car. When I say Kabukabu, I mean that the car is not in good shape. Don't you know those cars that you push before they start? That's kabukabu..

I got to the park as early as 6:30Am. Hubby took me there and nodded good bye to me.
At 6:59Am, I called to tell him I was already leaving for Lagos, he prayed and wished me a safe journey. I prayed too and told God that we are leaving with his holy spirit. We sure did.

Not up to ten minutes drive, the driver told us that he was making a U-turn. He said the gear has issues and is not ready to manage it. Although we thanked him for his honesty but why then? He ought to put his vehicle in good shape before taking passengers.

We thought, he could offload us into another vehicle, but he didn't. Instead, he called a mechanic to come and repair it. The mechanic repaired it in a few minutes and we moved.Not up to ten minutes again, the gear developed problem. The man called the mechanic again to come back and check it again.

At this point, we believed God was communicating something to us. Most people asked for their money, but the driver did not bulge. Instead he treeked back to the park to get us another vehicle. But he came back saying there was none. So we waited for the repair. Two passengers forfeited their money and went back home. They believed it was dangerous to go ahead with the journey.😅

But we waited and finally, we moved by 8:05Am. Thank God the journey was smooth and we got there safely.

MY CLOTHE WAS A SHAME
When I posted how happy I was to be attending the wedding in Lagos, and the styles I anticipate, someone among those who commented asked if the tailor can make my clothes well? Jeez, the clothe is a shame.

I am not able to show you what I ordered because it is not an image from a free to use site. However, you will never believe the comparison of both.

I had to take it to a tailor's shop to amend the clothe. That's me in the Tailor's shop. The clothe was big, unattractive, ugly and definitely not my style. How much can the aboki tailor amend?

When he was through, it became too tight.😅. I took it home and couldn't manage it. Next day I took it to another tailor. Making three tailors. 😭. Yet, I didn't like it.
Well, in the next post, I will show you how I will manage it. I gay no choice.

Meanwhile, back home, my cousins were all busy, my Aunt went to the market and at a point my Mum, her siblings are I were very hungry. We decided to stroll round for food.

We couldn't get food in the environment my Uncle lives. Here we are, searching for where to buy food.

Finally we saw a spot we could manage to buy food, we hurried there and found it was an old shop. The owner had moved and left the signboards. When we asked where else to get food, the dirty looking shop the security man pointed to caused this laughter

After a long search we decided we get back home. But on our way home, we saw a joint near my Uncle's house selling "good food". We sat down to enjoy it, only to find that the food left was for four and not five. They even had one fried chicken and we're asking if we could all share it. But for the hunger, we decided to get the food like that. I wonder where the Madam buka got meat to add to the food.

I had to call @mcyusuf to ask if someone can not get good food in his area. 😅

....To be continued.

Hahahaha. And there I was, unavailable to pick at the right time. Lol.

It's getting to become a common incident with commercial transporters turning a blind eye to their vehicle faults. Some can't afford a proper repair and would just hope to manage one more trip, then another one more and the chain continues.

I usually check the tyres, exhaust fumes and vehicle framework before entering. Doesn't mean safety's assured, but one or two checks have been cleared from my worries.

Sometimes, you may not be able to check a vehicle before entering, not until it moves. Thanks for coming around Bro

Wait oo! Three tailors on one clothe😂 that sounds a bit funny and annoying. Because seeing it in the picture alone, I can tell that it doesn't look pleasant at all. It seems some of this tailors are still learning work, well it's a good thing you were able to at least manage it.

I tell you, three tailors on one clothe 😅 . Well, what can I do? I know after the wedding, I will loosen the top and another tailor, my main tailor will do the top afresh. What I ordered isn't what I got, but all is well. Thanks for stopping by

I don't know why those taxi guys do that, some of them are aware of the condition of their vehicle but would still risk taking passages with it.

I believe the clothe was really bad with how you described it, some tailors are best at disappointing their customers.

Especially when we go on a trip like this, we listen to our favorite songs all the time and have a lot of fun, and this is the special time when people forget about their life's problems and once again enjoy themselves. Enjoys his life too much for some time.

Most welcome dear.

That tailor needs to be flogged o, haba, see how they spoilt your dress but I'm sure you will know how to package it well.

Don't mind the driver and his kabukabu at least you arrived Lagos safely

Yes please, I am able to manage the clothe and it finally came out beautiful. We thank God they didn't ruin my weekend.😅

Hahaha... You had an eventful day

The bus. Your tailor. The food stalls. Sorry about all the hiccups. It's great that everything went well in the end

Hilarious one!😂😂

When the vehicle stopped, didn't you feel it's good to head back home too or you don't go along with those superstitious belief? Lol😂

 11 months ago  

Hahaha, I felt so but I kept calling Hubby to update him and his Faith in that journey kept me positive. He said that delay may be God's way of preventing something bad on the way. That he knows how late the driver will delay and he will ask me to come back home. So I joined him to trust in God and really, after the vehicle was fixed, we arrived safely with no hitch. Thanks for stopping by

Well, some days are naturally tough, things just seems not to be going as planned. Although sometimes it could be a sign of danger, I think that was why others left as soon as the car started misbehaving. I am happy that God saw you through, making the journey a success.

Welcome to Lagos for the season. Glad you took a trip.

It was such a relief to see that you had a safe journey, sorry about the stress. It is better to just stick to a tailor, because it is more better.
