Well, historically it was the Welsh who attacked the English first :)

what People or Dragons ??? ....I wonder if Dragons have the same boundaries ;)

As for Bhavani the lamb, she's gotten pretty big now, but I'm back in Manchester so I haven't seen her for a while.

Jai Jai , hopefully she is gamboling about enjoying the weather :)

Haha, people. Seeing as there's one dragon in each country, I can't imagine there'd be much point in having national borders.

Some really warm weather up here in Manchester! Downside to being back in the city is you can't go sit and meditate on hillsides.

Yes, Arbuda (Aravali Hills) is mentioned in RigVeda as a demon who opposes Indra and imprisons the sun. It is one of the oldest demons of the world. Our great dragon, Himalaya stretches from Pakistan, to India, to Nepal to China. It is 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) long and has nine of the worlds 10 highest peaks. It is a mighty dragon.

Himalaya is a big dragon, but there are others too, Andes (7,000 miles) and Rockies (3,000 miles). I did not mean that Himalaya is the biggest, though it is highest on land. :)

"
Mount Everest was formed as a result of the collision of the Indian continent into the Asian continent which began some 20 million years ago and continues today.

Mount Everest was part of an ancient seabed; today it is possible to find the fossils of marine creatures at its peak that were preserved hundreds of millions of years ago."

Aravali Range is a pre-cambrian fold mountain about more than 2,000 million years old. (Compare that to 20 million years of Himalaya. :))

Guru Shikhar, the highest point in Aravali Hills (5650 ft.). Lord Dattatreya
