Manoj Herath: Savior of Royal Thomian Day 1 and 2 photos

If it were not for Manoj Herath we would not have the Day 1 and Day 2 photos of the Royal Thomian (132nd). I had dropped the camera in the CH&FC club while stumbling back home on the second day of the match. Manoj Herath picked up the camera, informed Piyadasa the bartender that a camera was found.

On the evening of the third day of the match I went back to the CH&FC, Piyadasa the bartender informed me a camera had been found and a couple of days later I had the camera back.

Manoj plays hockey for CH&FC. He was one of the youngest Police SI's. Apparently he has been under interdiction for a few years. If anyone who reads this can help him get his job back, that would simply be great. You can contact Manoj Herath at 077-2290987.

Dining Hall

The crowds enjoying, Beef Curry, Parripu, Boiled Egg and Pol Sambol. It was pretty good, quite liked it.

From near library, with Dining hall in background to the right
Up Lavos, inside looks worse as in cleanliness than our days. OBA maybe time to give it a face lift. Update: Kumar David says this area will be used to "construct a new commerce block which will house twenty classrooms. The building alone will cost about Rs75 million and state of the art equipment another Rs25 million."
Duck Pond. No duck, lotus flowers or for that matter much water. This and the Up Lavos take away an almost picture perfect campus.
Bathrooms, pretty clean and fancy
