It takes Timbuktu to tango

Mayor of Timbuktu in Birmingham « AerosolArabic: Urban Islamic Art
The mayor of Timbuktu is in Birmingham… would I be able to meet and greet him!? No it wasn’t a practical joke, the mayor was actually in the UK as part of the twinning of the Welsh town Hay-on-Wye.

So we didn’t get it, but he popped in anyway. Good on you Said Ould Mahmoud.
