You couldn't make it up!

We certainly have some interesting customers!
A couple of chaps came in the other day, and told me that they are Tibetan explorers, looking for books on early explorers of Tibet. I told them where the section was, and then one of them added: "I also play the bagpipes. Do you have anything on that?"
So I told him where the music section was, and spent the rest of the morning fantasising about these two men, half way up the Himalayas with their pack-yaks and their Sherpa guides - and one of them coming out of his tent in the mornings to play the bagpipes before breakfast....
