This seasons new flavour. Verdict: not bad but too many competing flavours together. Can taste all the fruits as the package promises but overall too busy on the palette. 6/10 but it is not as good as the lemon cheesecake or passionfruit KitKats.

Tried a local restaurant for the first time tonight. Too many choices on the menu so we just asked the Master to feed us. Lots of yummy and interesting food just kept arriving. Sensational!!

Video  




Pictures 110  Originally uploaded by ash-man.


We took these photos at Shikinijima over Golden Week.  Shikinejima is a gorgeous island off Tokyo but the shores are littered with these enormous concrete tetrapods. 

Are these things really necessary? Do they really stop erosion or are they just another excuse for spending tax dollars propping up the Japanese construction industry?
Or am I just cynical?

Spoke to Jo the other night - am really missing her so I just thought I would use this photo to test the auto blogging function from Flickr.

Thought this one was a bit more Japan related..  I promise I will quit soon..  really I will. 

You Are a Kogyaru!
If it’s cute, you’ll wear it. Fake and bake, hair bleach, and bright makeup line your bathroom cabinet. As for clothes - anything that’s short and cute (“kawaii!”). You are the prize object of all sorts of men - but you are really looking for a rich foreign guy. He’ll find you out hanging out in Shibuya shopping at the 109, text messaging and sending photos over your cellphone.

What’s Your Japanese Subculture?
