Milton playing quoits, my 21st birthday party oil lamps and tossing coins on the steps at Montford Lodge.
Another full couple of days, last formal day of training on 24th, thought we were all going to Ashley’s for a few beers. Turns out I had a surprise birthday party, the ladies had gone to lots of trouble, handmade flower garland, oil lamps, banner with beer and nibbles. Was well stunned, kept me quiet for ages. Had a great time played silly games and did tricks for a few hours. Last day today had end of course Olympics, mix of Sri Lankan games and ones we came up with see blog for photos, the locals cheated really badly and ignored any rules, cultural experience. We did hopscotch, quoits, 10 pin bowling, apple bobbing etc. and threw a few water bombs for good measure. The prizes were spoons and other kitchen stuff, the woven wall hanging spoon holder will easily be posted for Xmas so watch out those on Xmas list.
