    I know those who have a very nice collection of these hats. The designs seem unlimited.

    @Jilly........I understand that wearing a turban is like wearing a collar and tie. The full outfit must be turban and Khanjar (Omani curved dagger)- worn for very formal occasions. The grade of the Khanjar wearer is signified by the number of rings attaching it to the belt - or so I was told by my personal soldier guide at the Army Museum.

    Cher Chuckeroon, te voilà de retour alors chez toi ? Aurevoir à Muscat ? Laisse un peu passer de temps avant d'y retourner car j'ai remarqué qu'on est souvent déçu de revenir quelque part où on s'est beaucoup plu. Je crois qu'il faut oublier un peu pour revenir avec des yeux neufs...
    As tu eu des yeux neufs en retrouvant ton beau château ?

    "Ma tante tirelire lire,

    Ah ! mon beau château,

    Ma tante tirelirelo.

    Le nôtre est plus beau,

    Ma tante tirelire lire,

    Le nôtre est plus beau,

    Ma tante tirelirelo."

    (Chanson française)
