It wasn't on my wish list anyway.

This was on our "Bucket List". A relative used to live there in the 90s. It's just been crossed off. What will these countries do without Tourism? This is a very poor country.

oops- another country consciously commits suicide .....
and becomes a basket case

[Peter Pedant]

agree Lindy

I said to an Egyptian ( not a great colonial victim - they consider themselves better off under the British ) you countrymen will starve.... [without tourism]

andhe said why do think Iam here for chrissakes ?

[ichkeria]

I'm puzzled as to why this would make any difference to the likelihood of terrorism there, which presumably is the concern. Dubious rulers make these sorts of announcements from time to time although this one may well frighten a few horses admittedly

[ToraToraTora]

I never had any TPLACs on the list anyway!

[youngmafbog]

Me neither TTT

I believe it's quite popular with Brits.

My first learning of the Gambia probably came from The News of The Screws.
A popular bolt hole for frustrated old Brit Biddies who would visit,fall in love with their toy boy studs who served them their Daiquiris and then marry and bring them back to the UK. A few months later we would read, in the Sunday paper, of said biddie bemoaning her fate and empty bank account . Lol
