Fan died. Phone at 22 percent. Three of us, one tired wants a mall. I want not to panic. 26 Aug, Arugam Main Street ATM.

Sit it out if it is an ordinary cut. Walk to Colombo Dialog if you need a charge and a drink. Do not invent an island blackout from one lane. Arugam Main Street ATM cuts happen. Shops with generators exist. Ask, do not announce a crisis at the desk.

Kids: walk to a lit sit. Waiting in a dark hot room is a mood.

Power bank. That is the whole kit.

Do not follow a stranger to a 'fast charge'.
