One glass too many...

Despite having lived for 34 years in Australia, Randy (or Randolph Melville de Silva, according to his citizenship certificate) still talks like a Sri Lankan. Of course, after all these years, he liberally spices his conversation with phrases like ‘No worries’ and ‘She’ll be right’ – and refers to his pals as ‘Mate’ instead of ‘Machang’. Now an avid Aussie Rules fan, he is a proud, paid up and passionate supporter of the Richmond Tigers. He gets into a bad mood, casting aspersions on the referee’s paternity and visual acuity, on those occasions when the Wallabies lose to the All Blacks or the Springboks.
