Board at Negombo tuk from CMB on 21 Aug — trust tuk 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. Agree the number before the bag goes in. 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.
Stay where you can stand at Negombo tuk from CMB. I will not invent a warning colour as 21 Aug fact. The bar does not write the sea.
Token in the pocket at tuk. Hats off. A 2019 blog is not 21 Aug. Follow the counter in front of you.
We paid one soda, cooled, left toward canal room. Fine. Occupying shade with a bottle you brought is the rude version.
Closed shoes at tuk. Sandals after leftover rain is how you meet the clinic. Walk the inside lane.
Leave a buffer. Agree the fare before you sit. Do not cut it to twenty minutes at Negombo tuk from CMB and then argue in a jam.
If it is steaming at tuk, sit. If not, pack fruit and walk to canal room. Biscuits in the bag anyway. The wait is the hungry part.
