Fish Tank 97

I had this enviorenment friendly fish tank in Kurigum of colourful guppies and mollies. There was sun light coming from a chimney with a transparent plastic roofing .I Used to
throw in a boiled egg white and go for two weeks surfaris and still the fish live happy munching on pieces of egg white. Somehow all din't go very well when one crazy heated up stray cat, fell right into the fish tank via the chimney. I was on surfari and when i came my landlady said they heard some sounds from my room and checked to find this worn out hungry cat and all fish gone and my room in a mess.

Let me think 99


The most convenient foot wear that i found in the bazaar those days were the black Bata rubber thongs. Holds fast on to the pavement. Easy to walk on the reefs. Can wash easy . But , let me think, its not what it used to be like. Things have changed . It is not that island with a beach anymore with everyone knowing every one else and besides, no self respecting man wears thongs like them in Male' anymore

Bottle Lamp 05

The most common form of light in the islands before electricity in Maldives is the simply constructed kerosene bottle lamp.
It comes in all shapes and sizes of emptied bottles like this jam container. The light it throws out is quite soothing.
