Bana is used as a honorific in Rajasthan and not as a surname.

P.S.: I am not related to Eric Bana (Black Hawk Down) either. ;)

Bantu, please sign up on a provider like photobucket.com, then follow instructions in photobucket on how to upload your pics. Once uploaded, under each pic you will find 3 types of addresses e.g for e mail, for Bb, etc.
copy the last address which says for Bulletin boards, and paste it here in your message , the snaps will open here ,without eating up our space /bandwith.

Bantu,

Welcome to IFG.The link to 'Koftgari' seems to be still under construction.No price anywhere for your products on the site.Would help you to get more inquiries that lead to a purchase than now, if you do.
