Lots to organise today. We started with the delivery of the 5 bicycles to the hotel which we’re storing in our rooms until tomorrow's prize giving ceremony at the School Fun day.
Then we visited the bakery to arrange food and refreshments for tomorrow plus to renegotiate the bakery order which provides meals for over 150 kids every day. Prices are rising in Sri Lanka and the pound is falling against the USD which means we need to make every cent and penny go even further. The bakery has acknowledged that it can provide local food as well as buns each day so we're just waiting for the quote.
We also had an interesting visit to the home of the signmaker for Declan's memorial. He has done a magnificent job and is shown pictured with Don. Hopefully we'll get it installed in the School's music room later this week.There was also some last minute shopping for items for the sports day...including over 150 balloons... Yes, the infamous ballon-blowing competition and balloon dancing is back. We are really looking forward to what should be a packed day which will see us awarding the bikes, handing out over 100 pairs of shoes, presenting a new cricket set and seeing the band play for the first time.
An early night beckonzzz
