A rose by any other name..

Given I've just seen a heron, a squirrel and a lovely little lizard; that the lagoon is a constant presence and that the reaction of even Sri Lankans who come here for the first time is to go quiet, grin and then say "nice place", I think this place deserves a good name.

It is currently known as Barramundi although, according to the unpaid TV bill that came yesterday, it does have a more prosaic address. In any case, Barramundi is, I think, Australian so we need to change it.

Brayen is working on this and has a professor of the Sinhalese language involved. The first suggestion was lovely but very hard to pronounce so it's back to the drawing board.

I'll post the choices and listen gratefully to advice!
