Anticipating Arugam Bay

Tomorrow is the company outing to Arugam Bay. Everyone gathered around
to find out what time we are meeting, and horror of horrors the time
is getting closer and closer to midnight. As aptly put by Rams, how
much earlier do you want to leave, we are leaving at freaking 3 a.m.!!

Dinushka is missed, because she is the live wire who sets the place
alight with her enthusiasm. She is already in Arugambay.

Looking forward to it.

An Evening at the Capri Club

Patrick and Vasanthi invited us over to the month end bash at the Capri Club. It was the first time I’d been there, and I found it most pleasant indeed. We had a quick drink first and then moved to the patio where music was being playing by Dalrene Suby and a band… There were lots of dance enthusiasts around and the dancing went on for a long long while. Dinner was good too.. a lovely evening of dancing, music, good food and excellent company!

Air Asia Free Tickets!!!

I must have been nuts… I got the email several times from various friends of mine and finally thought I’ll give it a shot myself - after all who passes up on the chance to win a free air ticket? I added the names of my friends (many of whom had sent it to me in the first place  and sent it to airasiafreeticket@gmail.com and what happened? The email bounced… I’m left wondering whether the whole thing is a hoax …. There’s no such thing as a freebie is there?

My Blog

Someone mentioned the other day that they find reading my blog interesting….. I’ve got a fan yay!!!!!!!!!

Hilton Colombo

We decided to go to the Hilton for lunch on Mum’s birthday. As always I must say that the food was splendid as was the service. After a heavy and fully satisfying meal we even had a walk outside admiring the giant carp and beautiful swans and waterfall before wending our way home. Hilton always does come up trumps in my experience!!

Big Bite

After the superlatives connected to the Restaurant ‘Big Bite’ I thought that on the 27th of June, we’d order a savan from them. They had very prompt service. I called 15 minutes before I went to collect the order, and when I went there, the food was all ready and packed waiting for me. There ended the good service!!!

The biriyani was so darned salty it had me almost forgetting my manners and wanting to spit it out immediately. The entire savan was left uneaten. When I went to return the savan to Big Bite I told the manager (I think) that the food had been very salty that in fact I gave him a very generous amount of the leftovers to verify my complaint. They apologized admitting that mistakes happened indeed, and that was the end of the Big Bite story. I and of course everyone who was unfortunate enough to sample the biriyani that day will NEVER be ordering from Big Bite again.

Wednesdays at the DBU

Since several friends were going to be at the DBU on the 1st of this month, thought it may prove to be an interesting evening, especially since the band Kismet was playing. Despite the rain there was a large turnout, the music as always was very good, though they did play quite a bit of the older rather hackneyed numbers. Giggled all through the evening, Vasanthi is such fun ! All in all it was a really enjoyable evening.
