Re: Sri Lanka on an Enfield 350 Classic

No sailing in Sri Lanka, currently sailing around the Mull area on a friends boat that is based in Oban, a bit chilly up here after Sri Lanka.

Re: Sri Lanka on an Enfield 350 Classic

Hi Paul, as a tourist it seems as though nothing has changed since we were here in March 2020 just before Covid, we actually flew home on lockdown day in the UK, Sri Lanka had locked down 4 days earlier, fortunately we had managed get most of our holiday in, we were not actually thinking of coming b...
