The world has just collapsed around my earholes

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

For years I've been making my travel arrangements independently via the gift of the internet, booking flights direct with airlines and hotels via Booking.com and the like.

A travel agent has just saved me £1,500 on two flights to Sri Lanka. £1,500.

How much money have I pissed up the wall in the last 10 years? :cry:

travel trolley based in iver bucks. I doubt you've wasted much, probably saved over all imo.. i always check web / direct plus travel agent..travel agent very infrequently wins

Then down to Mirissa for beach and whale watching.

opened up the casket that the tooth lies within and told them it was all a tiger's tooth.

I feel the good people of Sri Lanka may have been mislead a little at some stage.

"Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be prepared by Roshan, unless you wish to eat out. However, on at least two days in any period of a week, you should choose between lunch and dinner at The Teak House. We have provided a menu but you can request specific dishes which Roshan may or may not have prepared before. If he has not, you may wish to give him some guidance."

If Roshan is busy, his brother, Ruane Chandana, will always run errands for you in his tuk-tuk. He will also drive you in the evenings. You must remember to ask him before he leaves work in the afternoon should you require a tuk-tuk that evening. If you do need a tuk-tuk or van for any other journey, please ask Roshan. We have a list of recommended drivers whom we have known for a very long time and do not recommend that guests use any other transport whilst they are here, save should they wish to experience the bus.
