Went to the Lions Head to meet a friend of mine then we went up to a club called Bird Land. I was a bit Kn...rd though and found myself n falling asleep in my Sapporo which is a Japanese beer for those that don't know. Anyway went home earlier than usual but it was still nearly daylight, time flies and all that. It was Sunday the next day though so i could sleep in that was if the schools base ball team across the road were not having a game and chanting what ever it is they chant when they play
It's hard to keep doing a blog and writing anything remotely interesting, it is for me anyway. Everything i do is pretty much the same day to day especially a week day and I'm trying to keep away from that four letter word work.
Had a bit of a walk round town Saturday before going to the gym, took some photos of a few places i came across Mr Cutman, maybe It's where should have got my hair cut, actually am starting to quite like my hair real short.
Have you ever thought something or someone was watching you well there is, these eyes are on the shopping center LaLasquare over the other side of the railway track from where i live looking straight down the road, so you might say i live on the wrong side of the tracks but it depends on who you ask.

There were some other quite interesting looking places that i had never really noticed before. For instance the building below looks out of place to me like it should be some where in Paris or something like that, it was also very thin, looked like it would fall over very easily.
The other photos are photos gates to larger houses or maybe some sort of temples am not sure. Also thrown in a shot of a noodle shop that i like to eat in, food is good and also cheap, Japan can be expensive but there are plenty of places to eat that won't break the bank even in Tokyo.

Last photo is of a car i like, it reminds me of a Citroen 2CV and ever time i see one of there they look out of place a little as if they should be back in the 60's
I'm also still working on things for the apartment, the main thing i need is a gas burner. Went to buy one on Sunday at my favorite secondhand place, had actually decided on what to get was going to pay for it. When i got to the counter the lady asked me what kind of gas i had, well there's the rub gas is gas to me especially in Japan. I live in a big town and in a pretty new apartment had just assumed that it was mains gas to the apartment but there i go assuming again.
To cut a long story short did not buy the burner as i was not sure of the type of gas i had, apparently there's Tokyo gas which seems to be mains gas and there are others which are similar to Propane or Calor gas in the UK.
Think i have a sort of Propane/Calor will have to check it out, oh well the fried eggs sarnies that i was looking forward to will have to wait another week.

Hi Steve, just to say, I think you're doing great with your blog. Sometimes it is difficult to be creative but there is always something in daily life however small and your blog will be a great memory of your time in Japan when you get home. It's easier for me and Phil to blog because there's two of us which of course also means twice as much shit!
BFN
