Vijaya” was not a large ship but then, we were not a large Navy, still proud of a vessel that was like a cork in heavy seas, tossing around but still afloat just like this writer, in my endeavour to give my eLanka & Lanka Times readers a very brief but hopefully interesting “history” of ” my lovely Island home’, ...
MEMORIES One simple word, yet, for anyone & everyone that can go through their life without the cruel two-letter one, “dreaded dementia” or the equally bad three-letter one ” Old-Timer’s Disease” (Alzheimer’s), this one, rather beautiful word is super-important in it’s ability to help one to “recall” past experiences, and even though these experiences may sometimes be sad ones, as this particular original song of mine, suggests, more often than not, helps you to get-over a previous love, who, perhaps walked out on you, and because, as they say ” Time wounds all heels” oops!!, sorry folks, but they WERE “high-heels”. Anyway, cut the chronic phrases Des. & get on with the lyrics of this song which could be well-recorded by YOU.!( my reader). Call me, if you are interested. D.K.F.C. “MEMORIES” (that haunt me). MEMORIES THAT HAUNT ME, MEMORIES OF YOU WITH EACH ONE I WONDER COULD YOU BE ...

Most people are not familiar with complicated cooking but to cook the basic things such as rice and curries is not a difficulty thing because even our “kussi ammas” are able to cook on firewood stoves. Now modern facilities are available, gas and electric cookers, ovens, microwaves and even solar powered cookers. In other words the energy required for cooking is available but some people are not taking the best advantage that means they waste lots of energy during cooking due to total unawareness of the wastage. ...

Some songwriters accomplish this, while many more are not as lucky, and even though “their” songs might be considered “above average,”they “come & go” with monotonous regularity, much to the disappointment of the songwriters’ concerned. It is not an easy business, this song-writing. Firstly, there are the composers of music that have no idea of writing “lyrics” & of course, there are the lyricists who cannot write the “music” of a song. ...
Traffic Delays in the cities is a major risk factor for heart disease Dr Harold Gunatillake Known risk factors for heart disease are obesity, stress, consuming fatty and starchy meals, diabetes, high blood cholesterol, genetic factors and so on. We forget to realise that the worst risk factor for heart disease is the frustration of road traffic hold- ups, or as we call it ‘bumper to bumper’ situation on the main city roads in Colombo and outskirts If you drive on Galle Road from Wellawatte to Mount Lavinia during office hours you could take over an hour to get to your destination, which normally should take 15 minutes. You get annoyed, frustrated, angry, fatigued and disappointed when you can’t reach your destination in time, as a daily repetitive occurrence. Most car owners can’t afford to have drivers, and you need to self- drive to work every day. No person in ...
