Board at Kandy intercity stand on 21 Aug — trust intercity bay or a group chat that already lied once
21 Aug, two of us, daypacks, no balcony budget. Group chat sold us a seat that was a rumour. Bags. We can wait.

Ask the board twice. Seated versus standing; elder gets the seat. A group chat is not a timetable. I will not invent a 21 Aug departure. If the reserved board is empty, take the van that is filling.
Skip if knees are done. goods-shed is still a morning. I will not invent a 21 Aug trail closure. Shoes with grip.
Watch from intercity bay. It is their work, not a show, not a tip line I will invent. Wave, leave space, walk toward goods-shed.
Try the shorter machine first. Queues are queues, not a shutdown I will invent. If both fail, town toward goods-shed, not a cousin POS.
One pin. Be down before you pretend you also have the second. Water, jumper, turn around. Pride stacks two climbs.
Walk-up is still ordinary. Prepaid is a seat, not a sighting. I will not promise a whale. If the harbour shrugs, sit goods-shed.
Come early or be honest. Arriving at a listed start owns a shoulder view. 6:40 is listed, not a promise the first elephant is on the kerb.
