this is Augustine i met him in Eastbourne,East Sussex
and he was more than happy for me to take
his photo, he told me he came from ceylon to England
with his mother in 1956 because she did
not get on with her brother, and that he was
happy they did because in 1959 he was
assassinated by a buddhist monk.
he told me that he was the Prime Minister of ceylon
and that i should look the story up on the internet
a real interesting guy a pleasure to meet and photograph
