Tokyo Polymeet?

[Uncle Sparky]

that's where you put cannabis in the brownies, right?

Also involves hemp tea...

[DaShi]

He denied it? So where does BonitoSoup dwell?

I've never claimed to be living in Japan while posting here.

I've never claimed to be living in Japan while posting here.

Its Korea, isn't it?

[Aeson]

I vaguely remember something about teaching English to Japanese in relation to DaShi. I only remember it for the awesome "take anything you want" video though. All other details of that interaction were assessed to be insignificant in comparison and so were purged from memory.

Funny that you say that. Dad was in Nagasaki in 1945 too. His USMC unit placed a plaque at ground zero and used it for home plate in a softball game. 32 years later he died of cancer. Related? Who knows?

It can't have helped, especially maybe ingesting fine dust during the softball game.

I had my wife with me

You kinky bastard.

Our little holiday to Japan is coming to an end today.

Yesterday we went Enoshima island

http://www.tripadvisor.com.au/Attraction_Review-g1021277-d1310887-Reviews-Enoshima_Island-Fujisawa_Kanagawa_Prefecture_Kanto.html

Beautiful place, good view of Mount Fuji when the weather permits. There is a local railway that runs along the coast. Great food.

Last night we went to Roppongi, Tokyo's nightlife hub, for sushi. It's been a great trip.

We stayed at the Grand Prince Takanawa hotel.

The hotel needs a refurb but that helps keep the cost down - retro chic and lots of sixties charm, everything works and runs smoothly as in any good established hotel.

It has really beautiful gardens with walking paths, a luxury in Tokyo, and clearly an appreciative clientele, return visitors, mainly Japanese, an older crowd. I would stay there again, very close to one of the big railway hubs - Shinagawa station.

Next time I come to Japan I will stay longer.

at least Molly knows what high tea is, and could probably appreciate koi pond

Yes to both. I had high tea in Adelaide when I was there- the first time I'd seen ladies of a certain age wearing gloves in absolutely ages. Roasting hot weather and excellent food.

Come to the Ritz for tea when you're in London.

And if your ever in Winterpeg and want a high tea, look me up!

[Alexander's Horse]

will do to both of you

Now that I am a harmless old man, they can't tell if you are 50 or 70, I was treated wonderfully in Tokyo, getting extra points for travelling around with my wife, which Japanese don't seem to do unless very old and still both alive, same in Korea

Although that had its drawbacks - being offered seats on the subway, much to Mrs Horse's amusement. She looks a lot younger than me.
