[These links do not seem to work anymore, from the mid-1990s] One of Ruskin Bond's neighbors, Bill Aitken, writes about When Neighbors become Good Friends, while Ruskin Bond himself meditates on "And Other Writers in Residence" in the Mussoorie hills.

These, however, were not written by Ruskin Bond--
