woolybanana Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 What a life he had. Just look at those romantic place names. Just the word Karakorum sends a shiver down my spine. Imagine, a Banana in the Karakorum, what a book title!http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/military-obituaries/army-obituaries/7466601/Colonel-Khushwaqt-ul-Mulk.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frecossais Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I know what you mean about the place names, Woolybanana. Remember the"Jewel in the Crown" series of books? They were like that. I almost felt that I knew India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
