FINALLY! GURKHAS.COM EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH ANNIE WATSHAM,
THE 'MYSTERY WOMAN FROM CRANBROOK'
________________________________________________
CREATE YOUR OWN SUCCESS with Forward Business Guides
As a leading figure in the increasingly popular sector of Life Coaching, along with many years journalistic work on the Gurkha Justice Campaign famously supported by actress Joanna Lumley, I have drawn upon my professional and personal experiences to create a detailed yet user friendly Business Guide aimed at young entrepreneurs and disillusioned employees dreaming of starting their own businesses.
After spending six years working as a highly successful Life Coach, along with over 30 years of working within the world of journalism including credits such as Editor of agena magazine a Nepalese and Gurkha catering focused publication, I realized that many of my clients were tired and frustrated with their current working situations and many shared the dream of owning their own businesses but lacked the knowledge and guidance needed to take the first steps.
I know that at a time when good quality jobs are few and far between, it makes sense to choose an area you are truly passionate about and start to make money working for yourself.
The Guide aims to provide its readers with a well-rounded step by step introduction into the business world from nurturing the reader’s ideas to financial advice and all that’s in between - press releases, PR, website design and building, CV writing, setting up your office to getting your company name spot on!
A former client of mine commented, ‘Working closely with Annie and the Forward Business Guide enabled me to “think outside the box” and gave me the confidence to move forward with my business dreams and make them a reality.’

VICTORIA CROSS HOLDER
RIFLEMAN LACHHIMAN GURUNG 93 DIES
The announcement of Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung, V C's death was received with great sadness. He died at 12.40pm on Sunday 12 December 2010 at Charing Cross Hospital.
Rifleman Lachhiman VC was born January 1st 1917 at Dahakhani village in the C hitawan District of Nepal.
HOW RIFLEMAN LACHHIMAN WON THE VC
During WW2, his battalion was located at Irrawady River, Burma. At night his section was in the advance patrol and nearly 200 Japanese suddenly attacked his company location. He was in the forward flank - it was chaos. The enemy were throwing grenades in quick succession around his bunker.
Suddenly one grenade dropped into his trench. Instantly, before it exploded, he picked it up and threw it back to the enemy position. A second one dropped in the same trench and he also quickly picked it up and hurled it back into the enemy position. However, unfortunately the third one exploded in his hand. His right hand was completely blown up, his right leg and the rest of his body were severely burned; however, even in this terrible situation, he picked up this rifle and single handed, loading and re-loading began to fire at the enemy position.
He resisted the enemy completely for hours. Due to these superb courageous deeds, the enemy was not able to penetrate and advance into his Company's position. At the end of the final assault, he was badly wounded and laying over the corpses of the Japanese soldiers. At total of 87 dead bodies were found lying on the ground and 31 corpses were at the mouth of his trench. From the pile of corpses his wounded body was removed and rushed to the field Hospital. Later he was sent to Calcutta Army Hospital where his right hand was amputated. For these outstanding courageous deeds, he was awarded the Victoria Cross.
The recipient of the British Empire’s highest gallantry award, Rifleman Lachhiman Gurung VC, received no pension from the British Government.

Mystery woman meets Joanna Lumley!
In 1998 I wrote to Joanna Lumley asking for her help. I was about to undertake a 100km trek in the Himalayas in aid of a UK charity for severely disabled children – Whizz-Kidz.
My fundraising plan was to ask local people for their help and Joanna fell into this category. I also knew that her father had been a commanding officer in the Gurkhas, so a great fit as the Gurkhas are based in Nepal! Joanna made an extremely generous donation and my fundraising was launched!
Ten years later Joanna Lumley and I were to make contact once more – and again with a Ghurkha theme! In October of last year in my local town of Cranbrook I signed a petition raised by Peter Carroll, Ghurkha Justice campaigner and Liberal Democrat parliamentary candidate for Maidstone and Weald to raise public awareness and gain government settlement rights for Gurkhas to stay in Britain. Peter has become involved with the Gurkha campaign in 2003 when he was approached to assist a retired Gurkha who was facing deportation from the UK after 22 years army service…
Peter happened to mention to me that the campaign was not getting the recognition and gathering the momentum that he would have liked and I said ‘Why don’t you get in touch with Joanna Lumley, her father was a commanding officer with the Gurkhas?’ A chance remark that has made SO much difference to the lives of Gurkhas, people who have laid down their lives for our nation.
Subsequently I saw the television footage, I heard the news and rejoiced in it, I saw Joanna Lumley on TV campaigning for the Gurkhas, however I didn’t put two and two together until I saw by chance outside my local newsagent (in June 2009!) a board stating 'Woman was key to Gurkhas camapign’ and another ‘Who is mystery woman?' I began to do the maths and realised that is was ME!!
I contacted the local newspaper, the Kent Messenger and informed them that their mystery was solved! Peter Carroll was informed – he had wanted to thank me but couldn’t remember my name and the word had gone out to find me!

I offered advice, Peter took it and acted on it, Joanna Lumley agreed to become part of the campaign, and the rest, as they say, is now good solid history and justice! We all agreed that the smallest things can often have the biggest impact.
I run a business as an Independent Distributor for Utility Warehouse and at a recent Utility Warehouse convention a Gurkha, Denish Grange, who also runs his own UW business came on stage with a testimonial as to how he loves the business! Not only was he extremely excited about his business, but he also received a standing ovation!
My ongoing Gurkha plans are now to attend a Himalayan Gurkha Rotary Club charity event in Tunbridge Wells in October and next year I plan to walk as part of a team of four for the Gurkha charity (100km in 30 hours overnight on the South Downs!) I must be mad, but it runs (or walks??!) in the family. My son Patrick, 18 has recently completed together with a friend a 300 mile walk from Kent to Wales for Help4Heroes, for which Joanna and Peter kindly sponsored him.
I feel extremely proud to have been a tiny part of a huge outcome; to be part of something that has not only changed history but also changed people’s lives. So, watch this space!!
