Brothers? Lovers? Not quite. An Afghan man shows off his ram before a match. Ram fighting, as well as dog fighting, camel fighting, and Buzkashi, were all once banned under Taliban rule, but have grown in popularity since the overthrow of the islamist goverment. Now that's what i have waited all my life to see, a man showing off his ram :)

Early in the 19th century their great-grandfathers went down to the pits and their women found work in the mills. Today, 10 out of 15 mills, 17 out of 40 pits, are closed. In a town of 85,000 people, 9,500 men and women are unemployed. But the man in the pub is still friendly, still confident that pits and mills will open again - perhaps after the war

He does not even know that, of 19 houses in Greenhough Row, where he lives, often only four families have work
