To the casual observor, the Ghanaian kiosk is the home of the Ghanaian informal worker (traders and hawkers) who is little-educated and wants to make an honest living out of the skills he or she possesses. To the discerning observor, the kiosk is all these, as well as a conduit for the enterprising--not to mention resourceful--Ghanaian to make some extra money as he/she shuffles between the formal and informal sector.
A case in question is a very personable young lady whom I saw again this afternoon. Thing is, I have met her a couple of times--at a pharmacy in East Legon, dispensing medication. Alongside that, she schools at one of the private tertiary institutions; and...when she's free slips back into the formal sector by looking after her shop.
When I saw her this afternoon, I was more than mightily impressed! I know the Ghanaian lady's enterprising spirit is not to be sneezed at, but this, surely, takes the biscuit: two jobs alongside schooling?
Wow...
Make your weekend a splendid one!

Andrea--why, thank you! LIkewise!
From the factory our 1986 30th Anniversary Karmod had an Aluminum rear deck panel that covered the mufflers and prop shaft area. The motor cover hinges attached just ahead of it to a separate much more narrow aluminum panel (about 8" wide) that was screwed directly into the hull stringers. With this design the motor cover, hinges and small aluminum panel stayed in place, https://karmod.us/guard-shacks/ and you could easily just lift the large rear aluminum deck panel to inspect the shaft packing, exhaust and grease the rudder port.
