March 31, 2016

Found this in my bathroom the other night during yet another power outage.

Glow little glow worm, glimmer, glimmer....

The President's daughter has bought a house in the lane next to me.  It is really a nothing road just a short cut really but a number of big houses have been built on it.  My friends Ava and Nishika live on the road and I use it often to go to Ava's or as a short cut to Sonali's.  It has been repaired three times in the last 2 months.  Other major arteries are full of pot holes, but this lane has been spruced right up at tax payer expense.  They have even gone to the trouble of erecting a road marker at the upped end that connects to my road.

All the road markers are in Sinhala, Tamil and English.  Here is the English version of Wattarentenna Lane, "Laen".  I didn't even know that was the name of the road.
