Taxi - A drive-thru Freetown.

Five years after the civil war, the people of Freetown are still praying -- Sierra Leone is the poorest country in the world.

The twinning link between Hull and Freetown is well known, but few people have any idea what life is actually like.

Taxi will take you on a journey through Freetown. Markets, mango stalls, tiny bars, colourful advertising art, hustle and bustle, waste and decay left over from the recent civil war.

Notice: all the women dressed beautifully. And noone, or none that I saw, are fat. Nice. And very colorful country too. Not war-ravaged as your average American ghetto --- no comparison with the filth of USA opressed poverty.
