A photo I received from my friend 'Sena' in the year 2000, which I touched up to look like a real 'Aussie'. I remember 'Sena' a constant visitor at 'Bloem' riding a smart bike, which he had spray-painted purplish-pink. He had a supply of cigarettes from Moscow, which his cousin Vajira of the Chitrasena Dance Ensemble, had given him, after the ensembles's visit to that socialist country, in the early 1960's. Many a time had we done a leisurely walk to Galle Face Green and back, from 'Bloem'. Many were the films we went to see and enjoy and the school-fairs we attended
Remembering the sweet old days gives a new energy to life.
