    Anyone remember the fearsome Gurkha at the Bangkok British embassy?

    He was at the security entrance every day, fearsome soldier with a sense of humour.
    Met him a couple of times over the years.
    Remember him telling Eric the TD founder off for giving it large about a 200 pack of cigs in the metal detector.
    Nice guy, wouldn't want to mess with him or his Khukri.
    Anyone got any stories from the Embassy and the sole security Gurkha.
