Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

Can live with those comments.

Generally I have found the sports reporting balanced or in our favour (from our local journos, not the former football player in Akld when it comes to the Nix).

"Phoenix till they lose"
