My granddaughter is in Sri Lanka at the moment. I hope she is safe – but Sri Lanka is about the same size as Ireland so whilst the heavy rain will have caused transport problems it should not affect the coastal resort – and she appears to have left a vulnerable area just in time. Having not heard from her mother I assume “No news – is good news”? My brother said that he hoped she was on her way home – I hope not! Her experience will set her up for life! I went to Israel just before the 6-day war, went to Peru during a cholera epidemic and terrorist uprising, was in London during IRA bombings – I am sure these things influenced me. She is home in 10 days – I hope she will tell me all.
