Ok, since that looks like a good idea, Icelanders have a very simple way of naming their children.

If John has a son called Sam, his name is Sam Johnsson; his son Peter will be Peter Samsson; his son Richard will be Richard Petersson...

That's great piece of Info Mandrake!!! ( Nimii.......you deleted something ehh???? )

They attack us.. more out of fear than with any malicious intent. It is like the defensive move by animals!

KALIMPONG (IN WEST BENGAL)

Another beautiful place! It is a hill station between Siliguri and Gangtok.
The name, Kalimpong, has three different origins. One, it means the place where the local tribesmen gathered to organize field sports, second, it takes it’s name from the Bhutanese king’s minister’s stronghold and thirdly, it is named after Kaulim, a fibrous plant found in abundance in this region.

Had been here last year. It is known for many nurseries of different varieties of Orchids, flowering cacti (the one I bought blossomed a beautiful orange flower last July!!)

How to get there - By Road: Kalimpong is approachable by roads from Siliguri (66kms), Darjeeling (51kms) and Gangtok (79 kms;Sikkim).
