"I like work. It fascinates me. I could sit down and watch it all day". Can't recall who quoted this originally but I sat and watched in the tv show host's (Funmi Iyanda, right of picture) study as she discussed work issues with her Personal Assistant, Funmi Akinsola.- Wednesday the 6th of December, 06.

    dreams can come true. She's great to talk to.

    I'll be presenting Wole Soyinka's Swamp Dwellers at Muson on the 26th of December. I'll have a jpeg you can put up very shortly.

    thanks a lot, mona, I'll look out for you.

    Hey Laspapi,

    Your post suggests that you have in awe of the woman. Miss Iyanda is a phenomenal woman though, totally understandable.

    I wonder how it is being Funmi's PA,From what I see on screen she seems like a bloody perfectionist! Love her tho'.

    mona, I'll search for other Arts events taking place in the Xmas period.

    @anonymous 1: I have no idea how you arrived at the 'in awe' conclusion. Your post reminds me of the diverse workings of the human mind. Funmilola is a close friend of many years, no matter how phenomenal.

    @anonymous 2: You appear to be a student of human nature. I know Funmi and her staff would laugh because you consider her a 'bloody perfectionist', but I know they'd be laughing because you're absolutely correct.
    Glad you think well of her though, she works hard for that programme.

    I refer to the two women in my comment. As you did in your post and response. No?

    Anon 1- I think I should concede that ever since I saw the V-Monologues on stage in Nigeria, I've realised how little men know of the female personality. (you may google my review of that play as published in the Guardian newspapers)
