Yes, How I do remember this !!
I still drool, when I think of it , as some girls in the Girls Common Room used to get their lunch this way , and I think, Damayanthie was one of them .
Being one from the Girls Hostel- I would just look and drool at this ‘ Made with love by Amma ” meals !
If I remember right, some years back, there was an article in the Nat Geo on this amazing feat of accuracy – not one plate got missed, or mixed up , and most of the Bath Karya’s did not even know how to read in Sinhala, let alone English- yet they go through these motions with such accuracy, it boggles my MD brain !!
Sam- this is homework for the Web Master- to do a google search on this article !
By the way- I wonder, if this is still done this way ???.
Thanks Web master- for this lovely trigger on the memory card !

I remember the place quite well. However our lunch was delivered to the college Cafeteria by the Jeewaka hostel staff. We had it made. Not Amma’s cooking but it still tasted good.
Praxy hope you are recuperating well with minimum pain and discomfort.

I do take Codeine and Paracetamol but they wear off after a couple of hours. It is one week today since the op so hopefully things will improve. Cheers. Praxy

Hi Praxy
It’s early days but keep up with the physio after six weeks you will see a remarkable difference. While it’s still summer go for walks Whenever you can . It speeds up recovery. Plenty of ice packs at regular intervals with some oromorp at night will help.
Thinking of you.
