Where the Coffee comes from

Our usual trip to the market and the temperature has dropped but that didn't prevent us from finding a sunny spot to have a coffee with Gaby and Chantal. Lunch was late as we were invited to Marcia and Nigel's for a Brazilian meal along with Maggie, Rita, Martine, Mike and Linda and Terry and Anne. The apéritif of fresh lime, rum and goodness knows what else slipped down all too readily and the meal of beef, beans, rice and more besides was delicious. All in all a great experience.
An experience of altogether a different kind was the showing of a film about the situation for women in the Democratic Republique of Congo that I went to in the evening. Grim, grim, grim.
