Here is something, amongst the many things, that I did not know. The humble Kebab, that greasy evil thing that you find lying on the pillow next to your head after a good night out as a student, was invented in Germany. I had just assumed, that because of the elegance and simplicity of the idea, that it had always existed, but no, it was invented by a Turkish chap who wanted something to make his kebabs easier to eat..
He has sadly passed away, but I think that we can all join together in a small lager smelling huddle in the rain at midnight, and salute his legacy.
