  I have a picture of him tweaking it rather proudly…..so you can see that he has a great sense of humour.

    Great. Can you image what it would look like if he had mustache wax.

  Your words of encouragement mean a lot to me Peter. There are times when I feel that my camera club friends can find my enthusiasm for India just a little tiresome. I hope that you are watching the BBC2 series based on a Jaipur hotel?

      I would love to rent a place for a longer period so that I might emerge myself in the culture and do some in depth photography. Not sure how the family would view that!
