Models posing on a wall. Sri Lanka

I hope this makes you laugh;o))

While travelling our driver and now very good friend stopped at a local viewpoint. There were 2 very old ladies sat on the wall smiling toothlessly and gesturing we take a picture. Chinthaka said 'you take picture then you pay' (OK he has a habbit of stating the bloody obvious!). I said 'it's horrible they're people not monkeys'. He replied that this helps them to keep their families so we should do it because the pay for tea pickers is not enough to keep the old ones. I argued in return that I could just give them some money anyway. He said "No you mustn't, it will make them unhappy, they're not beggars - they're models"

I took the pictures and sent a copy back to Chinthaka to give to them. Tourist spot - they're always there and he's a driver!!
