I trekked to Everest in Nepal seventeen times over the last 40 years. This book is a description of those journeys. It is not a guidebook, but rather a collection of my observations along that trail. Trekkers planning a journey to the Mount Everest region, or anyone interested in Nepal will enjoy this account of my travels. I spent 29 winters in Nepal and walked into the Everest region seventeen times. This book is about a trek into the Solu-Khumbu region, the foot of Mount Everest, and up the Arun River to Tashigaon, in the Makalu/Barun area. This is the home of the Sherpas.

I saw a cute young thing in a red negligee with white panties underneath and asked the waitress to bring her over to me. Her name was Jocelyn. She was 19, had worked there for one week, and had not been with a customer yet. That clinched it and I said the magic word ('barfine')... And much more like this, exactly as it happened, taken from journals written by the author from 2006 to 2010. The journals describe a series of disconnected encounters, but there is an underlying thread – the story of how Bangkok Byron met a very special girl.

"That's the one!" I said, deciding to go for it. After all, she was just my type: petite, yet pulchritudinous. Visions of what I would do to that tight little body flashed through my mind (shocking even me!), and as for those tits, I'd never let go of them!... In the event, I never actually got hold of them, as this was one of those visits where (almost) everything went wrong, but I published the book anyway as it contains useful information about bars and barfines and the state of Walking Street itself, which is in process of reconstruction.

I asked, “How much for the barfine?” She said, “3,000.” I said, “How long?” (Remembering my rules for once!) She looked at her watch and said, “Five hours.” That clinched it…. And much more like this, exactly as it happened, taken from journals written by the author from 2019 to 2020 on his return to the bars after his “very special girl” broke his heart.

There has been much debate about whether or not poetry is dead. Well, I can tell you from the point of view of a KDP author that poetry *IS* dead. So, I decided to rewrite some of my poems as prose reflections in the cynical, world-weary style of Graham Greene, and it—sort of—works. Hope you like it.
