Boda Temptations

This afternoon:

Me to boda driver: To Lugogo

(Climb on boda)

Me almost to boda driver: Ok, we go-go

I stopped myself before adding the second “go”, then laughed for the next 5 minutes at my un-verbalized pun.

And earlier this morning:

Me: To Bugolobi, Luthuli Avenue. It is 2,000, yeah?

Boda driver: Madam, that is little money. It is 3,000.

Me: Ok, we make 2,5

Boda driver: Ok, 3,5 and we go

Me: (Laughing) Ah, but ssebo, that is in the wrong direction! You cannot say 3 and then go up!

3,000 and we went
