Hello there, I was interested to read about you. My oldest son has just returned safely from Afghanistan where he was on duty with IFAS. He's a junior officer in the parachute regiment, and was at Kandahar. He described to me the merchants bringing strands of beads to sell at the bazaar, but told me they all looked 'old' so he didn't get any. He bought me some rubies, though, very roughly cut but pretty, price not too bad. I told him the merchants had been doing business with travellers for thousands of years in that area - they are professionals! Take care, and keep safe.
