But feel too shy to offer any worthwhile comments. I too like the Lung Koloth word. Thanks a lot for this story with an unusual ending. I rather expected Piyadasa to meet his former employer and get a hammering.<br />ZitaZitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14985029776566371971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-6880237139561013352015-04-20T20:42:08.162-07:002015-04-20T20:42:08.162-07:00Speedy sounds so innocent (or is he pretending?)

Have you heard of "Hand Jobs", "Blow Jobs" and "Happy Endings" in massage parlours? They are much cheaper than a visit to a brothel for the real thing. I should know (you may be expecting something else!) because my first job after Internship was in the Central VD Clinic of the General Hospital, Colombo. Part of my job was to visit "Houses of ill fame" in Colombo for contact tracing (accompanied by Public Health Inspectors).Lucky Abeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14193645922522446176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-8693177939764006722015-04-20T18:31:33.721-07:002015-04-20T18:31:33.721-07:00Lucky, I love the part about "Lung kaloth&quo...Lucky, I love the part about "Lung kaloth"......good one.<br />SrianiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-47004928818188148772015-04-20T13:40:06.360-07:002015-04-20T13:40:06.360-07:00I don't understand, why should going all the w...I don't understand, why should going all the way after reaching very close quarters carry a 100% mark up?.....mark up, that wasn't a pun!Mahendrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11940825368030959494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-23643962527047309202015-04-20T10:21:25.399-07:002015-04-20T10:21:25.399-07:00Lucky

I enjoyed it - Thankyou.<br /><br />Rohini Ananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-88371093857381752732015-04-19T19:55:12.201-07:002015-04-19T19:55:12.201-07:00Rohini seems to be reading between lines as well....Rohini seems to be reading between lines as well. <br /><br />"But" in that sentence is a key word. There are many such schools in Colombo like Anula Vidyalaya, Ananda Balika, Buddhist Ladies etc. But they are not considered as "leading" schools for some reason.<br /><br />More importantly, why are "ladies" referred to as the weaker sex? Because gents lead and ladies follow!Lucky Abeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14193645922522446176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5647561953942883640.post-64466909835280323082015-04-19T18:09:59.538-07:002015-04-19T18:09:59.538-07:00"a very feminine sounding but leading girls&#..."a very feminine sounding but leading girls' school down a flowery avenue" !!!!<br />Sriani and Srianee, we need to watch this guy with his short stories !!!<br />Besides- why the "but" in the sentence ?<br />Cheers LuckyRohini Ananoreply@blogger.com
