On Friday 16th July, we set off at 5am to welegama so i could present a lectern to the sponsor school the Ellon supports, with nothing prepare my speech was limited - "i hope you can understand me (half of them at this point with blank faces), I'm Matthew from Ellon Academy, and i present (my mind goes blank) and i say nothing (pause, very long one. Mum snaps some pics) these !!!!!! Then we were shown the 'new' toilets, and the it was explained we (the school in Scotland) designed them .... i took some snaps for the school.
We travelled about 1hour to the Berulage Gems & Jewellery Moonstone Mine, were shown around the mine, and then put under serious pressure of buying a few gems, El caved in and bought a moonstone ring and a white Sapphire (sri lankan diamond) i bought a green emerald ring.
