*We presented at the University of Moratuwa in the afternoon – it was a little disappointing as our film didn’t work with their systems but we had a great tour around the facilities afterwards.

*The facilities at the university are amazing – from the testing of fibres and fabrics laboratories filled with interesting machinery to the commercial standard cotton yarn production equipment – fully accessible to the students – I am so envious of them!

*We stopped off at Barefoot near Majestic City in the afternoon – and were amazed by the variety of textiles and gifts available – all beautifully hand crafted in Sri Lanka.

*We found an amazing DVD shop in Majestic City (a ‘shopping complex’ full of little stalls and shops) so can now chill out in the evenings when we are in the apartment and watch a film.
