Compo 10,328 Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I watched the Joanna Lumley India programmes on telly and the Bally Llama was on one of them. She gave him a drone for a present and he loved it. She said that he loves gadgets - not bad for a man who has given up all worldly possessions, eh?! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compo 10,328 Posted September 13, 2017 Report Share Posted September 13, 2017 He atent supposed to be human, Jill - he's a man-God. He was made a God when he was just a boy. In those days he was referred to as "The Boy God". 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
