Spotted in Tokyo! Much funnier in Japanese!!!
My cousin from Australia has arrived on a working holiday visa for an indefinite time. Staying with us until he gets sorted.
Our new balcony plant. Didnt realise they grew outside Australia. We found it at our local plant shop.
Edit: Just discovered that this is the Floral Emblem of South Australia
However, it seems that it will only last for one year when grown domestically. So we will enjoy it while it lasts.
Arrived home at 2am Sunday morning after a night out to a horrible experience. Our keys wouldnt work in the front door! We had to wake up the caretaker and her master key didnt work either. Had to call the locksmith who went through the peep hole and flicked open the lock with a bent metal rod specially shaped for this. He changed the locks and we were inside in less than an hour. Cost 12,000 Verdict was an old lock that just decided to die at 2am!
Australia Society BBQ 2006
Hard to see with my crappy phone camera but a building near the Takeshita Exit of Harajuku station is on fire. Black smoke billowing from the windows and firetrucks everywhere. Will check news tomorrow for details and update.

This Saturday 27 May 2006, I am helping to organise the Australia Society Annual BBQ as I do every year. It is a heap of fun to organise plus the other volunteers on the committee are great folk.
If you are in Tokyo this weekend, I would recommend that you get a ticket soon as we usually sell out and come along. Everybody is welcome - it is a sensational night - heaps of amazing food, australian wine and COOPERS Beer to keep the Ashman happy.
Details on tickets etc from the Australia Society Events Page
Otherwise watch this space for my moblogs live from the event.
