In the afternoon got chatting to the young guy who put out the sun beds. He was desperate to chat. Said he was really good at reading and writing English but needed more practise with speaking! He gave me the low down on all the guests. Basically the only people that talk to the workers are the Europeans! Blotted his copybook by saying that the ocean was like women, always unpredictable and always changing! That's when I told him his English speaking was rubbish!
Tried to have a game of badminton!! The 'court' is close to the beach so there's a constant breeze. Poor equipment and the prevailing wind caused lots of air shots and swearing!! It gave the gardeners a laugh anyway!
Buffett calls! Starting to tire of it a bit but the quality of the food is amazing (although I've gone veggie for the holiday!). Didn't know you could curry so many different things - beetroot, cucumber, bamboo leaves etc etc. All delicious. Diet starts when we get home although one of us has started theirs early! Hopefully tomorrow we'll get to the Bentota market - I'm missing all the banter!
