Even though this meant leaving before the refreshments after the MK Civic Service, this was not an invitation to decline. When we arrived were treated to some Tanzanian Coffee and a exuberant and highly educational lecture on the history of coffee...
Think for a moment, where do you think coffee originates from?
You might be surprised to know it comes from Ethiopia originally and it was the Yemenis who set about turning it into the drink we know today.
We enjoyed a fascinating lecture in a (very hot) yurt - "The History Of Coffee In Islam" by Abdul-Rehman Malik.
