One of the members of our church gave me an A5 piece of paper a few weeks ago. A copy of this had gone through the letter box of every house on his estate, and he wanted to know more about it.

Sounds good, and I trust him – but I’ll still buy a 250g bag of green to see what I think for myself. … Read more about At last, I can buy good Kenyan again
