On the eve of our wedding anniversary, I was clueless as to what to get my husband. My friends had told me of a great men’s store. I went there but everything looked familiar, either I’d already given him these things, or they were too mainstream for me. I’m a lady of class and I make no excuses for that, my hubby was a great guy and I was looking for something out of the blue, something that I wouldn’t have done on a normal day.
I laid down and thought for hours, but nothing came and I fell asleep with my earpiece on, only to be woken up with “My Darlin” by Tiwa Savage, I missed him even more. It was still, and will always be, our best song as it was played on our wedding day. I got up and unlocked my phone to put the song on repeat; it was playing from a playlist I’d made on the MTN Music App. A thought flew into my head, like a swallow swooping for its prey, I could make a playlist for my husband, from songs telling our life’s story together, all within the App” So I created a playlist including songs we loved, (well, he loved them more than me!). Songs about how we met, fell in love, how he proposed, our wedding, our first child and most of all, songs that truly explained how much I loved him.

For start-ups, the need for capital is more critical, because of items required, which may range from rent to office furniture and equipments, to utilities, working capital, living expenses, legal and accounting services, supplies, taxes, home expenses etc.

In summary, capital is needed for the start-up of a new business, existing business expansion, working capital, contract execution, importation, supply, delivery of items and many other purposes.

Tyson Fury, the new heavyweight boxing champion has caused more controversy this week by saying women are better off in the kitchen and on their backs. Fury, who defeated Wladmir Klitschko last week to win the WBA,WBF and IBF titles last month made comments about homosexuals so his latest comments on women will only bring more criticism his way.

Tyson Fury was nominated for BBC's Sports Person of the year but an online petition that has gotten over 30,000 signatures to remove his name from the nominee list will only get more signatures after his latest comments.

The footage that emerged has a publication date of November 25. When asked his opinion on women in boxing, Fury focused on the ring girls rather than athletes.

'I think they are very nice when they're walking around that ring holding them cards,' he said. 'I like them actually, they give me inspiration, when I'm tired and I see them wiggling around with their round two, round eight...I think women in boxing is very good.'

When pushed further on women actually boxing, Fury claimed he is 'not a sexist'.

'It's up to everybody what they want to do,' he said. 'I'm all for it I'm not a sexist. I believe if a man can to go work all his life a woman can. Who am I to say "don't do that cos you're a girl"? But I believe a woman's best place is in the kitchen and on her back, that's my personal belief. Making me a good cup of tea, that's what I believe.'

Fury immediately laughed off the comment but when asked about British heptathlete Ennis-Hill during the hour-long interview, this is what he said.

'That's the runner isn't it?' he replied. 'I think she's good, she's won quite a few medals for Britain, she slaps up good as well, when she's got a dress on she looks quite fit.'
