Got into Lagos last week, switched on Scruff and a warning popped up. Warning unheeded and most days bored while stuck in traffic in sweltering heat in an Uber/Taxify taxi with air conditioning blowing hot air, I browsed Grindr (which by the way doesn't have a similar warning) and picked up a life few lessons along … Continue reading Crap I Get On Grindr – XIII – Lagos Edition
