    • Don't listen too closely to holiday company warnings they are trying to sell you their champagne sunset tours. I know a British tourist was murdered in November 02, violence happens everywhere. You'd be missing a lot if you didn't experience Serrekunda at night or didn't go down to the beach and drink some bhang with the bumsters. On the whole these lads are very good company, but do find someone like Lucas Jatta, the palm tapper to keep an eye out for you.
