Rushdie Outraged

One of the best bits things about Pokhara has to be my initially surly looking French friend turned Corsican genius- Tangy. Spent a few afternoons at his Commencal ( French M.T.B manufacturer) sponsored bike hut. Had a handful of rides around Pokhara; some cracking trails and non of the traffic hopping that mars reaching the trails in Katmandu. Tangy is well on his way to having some of the best M.T.B er,s in Asia as he runs a school for kids from 7 up who seem more than happy on both wheels, back wheels or sometimes hopping around on front wheels pulling stunts on the street. Amazing stuff.
Nightimes in Pokhara are the biggest problem with a myriad of near empty bars and restaurants churning out the same stuff. Managed a few ales here and there but my big night out watching the football in the decent company of a student of Shakespeare was destroyed by an outrageous attack on my favourite (and only read author) Salman Rushdie with the preposterous expostulation that Rushdie had robbed all his ideas of Gunther Grass. Can anyone help me on this one ???
