Elusive finds, all one has to do is investigate the pages of your friends, and you will find material to share with others. This is a mans invention of the Chariot motorcycle. Twice the length of another vehicle, but then we think of the double limousine! That is truly a long car! And megabucks too! Un-affordable. By the way, when you invite people for this and that show, remember that there are people who earn by the day, though they live for tomorrow. To give you an idea of how I earn, I get 4 lessons in advance 6000 Rs, No breakfast except for a good coffee Rs 45 per pack, lunch Rs 130, dinner Rs 150 per day is Rs 325 per day. If I give myself a treat, a loaf of Banana bread from Sensal, Rs 150, or a stick of french bread Rs 125. I may have a dinner of Chicken tandoori, 2 legs with a garlic Nan. Rs 450. Another treat, Rs 675 for some Camembert and that may be once in two months. My electricity bill courtesy the board is Rs 12000 though I do not have a air conditioner in the house. (please remember it is not AN air conditioner, the sound is a Y) The water bill is Rs 150, yes I do bathe but most of the water which is insufficient and documented since 1935 is from a tube well. To pump the water into the tanks is where I spend money on electricity. And the water board can do nothing about it, because the neighbors with their illegal building hog all the water to a huge tank for 5 flats which remain empty now with a judgment against them. But they do not have a smaller tank to feed one flat. because they had anticipated that with their bribes (Prasanna Gunewardena former Mayor) they would also get approval for their building and 5 flats on a street with single houses. The water fills their huge tank, and the water probably stagnates. Dialog phones, minimum Rs 1600 per month, and hardly anyone calls me, but the idiots send me smss which are blocked about wanting to talk to me but that is Rs 2 per wasted call in having it sent to me. Two TV connections one for the flat with two beautiful occupants in their lifestyles, a perfect fit. That is not monthly, it comes every 6 months and it was used to get the cottage done and 98% completed. No more expense on that, but until January, I scrape at the bowl. The ex husband s were never asked for alimony because I wanted freedom. One of them takes care of the daughter and is blessed. Then when you get dumped by a friend who you buy tickets for and you think, Andrea can be invited to fill the seat, dont expect me to pay Rs 4,500 for a Jet liners concert because I am invited by you and I am not going to be Honorable enough to pay you for what I will never go to. even if given the opportunity because I dont like them! I mean, really! Lionel Richie was in Colombo and his tickets 5000 to 20,000. With 5000 I will live for one week with food. What is more important? With 20,000 I can repair one quarter of the roof in my cottage which was done by shoddy workman. NEVER EMPLOY ANYONE IN KANDY FOR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION! What is more important? I will pay the bills and not get disconnected. That is important. Then consider when the students do not come for classes. Cancellation fees, 50% the price, but I give them another class instead of the cancellation because mothers get sick, dogs die and they have to be in hospital as nursemaid. Thats when I go without food and have two to three meals of vegetables, which is very cheap but nauseating! To make it tasty takes, additional spices, that is when the price adds up!
