WhiteHorseRam Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 'The ******** - living Englishman', and why, would be a great thread, but I guess would be taken down in about five seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame I'll miss that, not going up til later. Was going to ask him if he still uses his left hand at night, so it feels like someone else is doing it.

Guest Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Sir Richard Burton for me - Victorian explorer, geographer, translator, writer, soldier, orientalist, cartographer, diplomat. He taught himself to speak fluently 29 European, African and Asian languages. He translated the Kama Sutra and the Arabian Nights. Once while searching for the Nile with Speke he was attacked by Somalis and escaped with a spear through his cheeks, walked miles to a British camp holding the spear in place so he wouldn't bleed to death. Google him. Quite a bloke. I'm his age when he died and can only dream about the places he went and the things he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
