My mate met the LlamaThis is what she said in her email.
True, did drink tea with Dalai Lama, that was after he made us wear red strips of cloth around our foreheads and a lotus leaf on our heads - he was laughing quite a lot, not surprising really.

That sounds very coolI'd love to meet the llama. He must be a very interesting bloke (I hope he can control his defensive spitting reflex in polite company though).

It soundedreally funny. He was doing some sort of teaching/tea drinking thing that anyone could go to. He sounds mad as a bike.

Of course,how could I forget. And Derek Nimmo's part in Enter the Dragon was a show-stopper if I recall.

Are you talking aboutThe Shaolin Kung-fu monks?
They do lots of cool stuff like fighting with really big poles whilst pretending to be drunk, headflips and pushing cars along with a spear, but with the sharp end resting on their throats and their hands tied behind their backs. Very cool.
They're on eurosport quite a lot so you should keep your eyes out for them if you've never seen it before.

That's the boysI love them, but they are very scary to watch. They need the"don't try this at home" thing a lot...
