Default The coffee shop where you pay with prayer

Coffee drinkers have begun congregating at the cafe from heaven, where drinks can be paid for with a prayer.

They only need say four Our Fathers for a cappuccino or five Hail Marys for a cola at the newly opened Jedro cafe in Zagreb.

Linky: The coffee shop where you pay with prayer | Metro.co.uk

Ok, that's me sorted - I'm off to Zagreb for breakfast, anyone coming with?

If only I could find a recording of the Mitch Benn parody of Bob Dylan called "The beans, they are a grindin'" (Following the story that Dylan, formerly a staunch anti-globalisation, anti-capitalist, has now released a CD of his songs to be played in Starbucks).
