Most beautiful love story. In 1980. I had my wedding reception at Mt. Lavinia. Hotel..If you market his love story..it will be a major tourist attraction.
Good program. But Thomas Maitland came in 1805 and went back in 1811, then how do you say " දුම්රියෙන් පැමිණෙන Thomas Maitland"......? (Railway construction in Ceylon in 1858)
Since I live in Mount Lavinia, I know this true story well. I have also been inside the tunnel, the entrance to which is found in Mount Lavina Hotel. However, the narrator makes one mistake here. He says Governor Maitland came by train to Mt. Lavinia. There were no railways in in Sri Lanka that era. The first train pulled by a steam locomotive came into operation in Sri Lanka (then Ceylon) after 1860. He would have surely traveled by horse-drawn carriage.
British harritage and British pride distroy the innocent love .. They pay the price today by the highest Corona deaths in the world .. Mother nature is punishing them ... Good thing they have to pay the price .. kawadawath awanka premayak winasa kaloth un ta illaga athmaye unath geanna wenawa even I am mix person I tell the truth There is nothing like buddism
They did not have children the same story My Grand father use to tell my father said Because My Grand father is from British and my Grand mother is from Sri lanka . He came to Sri lanka as tea plantation investor and He married my grand mother and They live in Bandarawela . They live in a wonderful life . We found this story and Thomas mateland left from the country by force by the British monarchy and He died after some years . At this moment these kind of bloody things british people have done to innocent people they pay the price now by Corona deaths . Thank you for uploading
