By the way, a friend of mine who knows a lot about post colonial nations wrote recently:
"I really am at a loss how anyone could give a positive spin to the fiasco that was this last Lambeth Walk and still keep a straight face. Indabas indeed . . . I fear that they don't realise what a traditional Zulu Indaba was . . . it wasn't a benign gathering of wise and senior men along the lines of an African Witan . . . it was generally concerned with planning the extermination of others (& the plunder of their property) and generally caused suffering and distress, not solving problems."
