Listen to the Episode Here!
This week on TLT, Zaki tries to convince us to visit a tree, Ali talks taxes, and Zaeem discusses the length of a road. Estonia is the destination and we discuss everything from the myths behind Tallinn’s origins to the pick of museums and heritage sites, as well as some competitions that haven’t made it to the Olympics (yet!).
Random Rubbish
A moment of silence for Ali's dead strawberry plants and my half-eaten ones, thanks to that evil squirrel.
