Hi there, just doing some browsing for my Salt Lake City 4g website. Truly more information that you can imagine on the web. Wasn’t exactly what I was looking for, but great site. Have a great day.

On the diapers, don’t bother with Pampers. For some reason, we could only get cheap knock-offs that were absolutely useless and leaked like a sieve (or maybe something has changed?).

A good bet is a Chinese brand that Nakumatt carries but the key was to do a change every 4 or 5 hours no matter what since things seemed to go wrong very quickly after that. In the final analysis though, Sijui is right, you can’t go wrong with cloth.

Thanks for the interest take on word on the streets…

Could you also update us on the campaign adverts? I saw the “domo” and the ODM counter- adverts on youtube, they seem quite interesting….

keep it up, keep it up especially POST ELECTION breakdown!
BTW there are a couple of good baby depots in Westlands, one right at the Mall next to Kenchic/Kusters bakery……..
I thought Nakumatt sold regular diaper brands like Huggies et al……….some of us stuck to the old school cloth nappies and Nakumatt has the best!

Won’t be around long enough post election, but will try. Thanks for the Westlands tip. The problem with brand diapers like Pampers in Nairobi is that the supply is unreliable so you are never sure you can find your size and sometimes you have to do raos. Old school cloth nappies? You are brave! (the environment is grateful).

There are so many stories depending on which side you are supporting.

That’s true – I’m just trying to capture what’s not reflected in the news.
