Today a Gurkha broke my tooth !

Saw into a Nepali mate of mine today. He's just back from a holiday seeing rellies in Kathmandu. He bought me a couple of presents. A copy of the Himalayan with a cart being towed by a couple of goats (don't ask why) and a bag of the local delicacy. This is dried fermented Yaks cheese. Go on have one he said. Not wishing to seem ungrateful for his kind gift, I discovered something new about the Gurkhas. Even there confectionary is well hard. I now have a broken tooth and he had a damn good laugh.
