That is what the company needs to do...take over Japan! I keep seeing Century 21 everwhere, but I am not quite sure if here that is home security or an estate agents.

A vending machine that sells "sweat". lolz. I thought all their fabulous engrishisms were bad enough! There's a really quirky featured article on Wikipedia about "toilets in Japan", apparently the flushing sound control is to drown out all the other noises because people get embarassed by the thought of people hearing them... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilets_in_japan#The_Sound_Princess Anyways, good to hear more from little miss interesting, reading all this amazing sounding stuff about the temples and mount fuji and the shinkansen bullets is almost providing a mental vacation for little old me stuck up in knaresborough with nothing to do! sayonara

Nigel is not the first one to leave a comment ! Wonders will never cease ! My vision of Paris is now of a land full of dog poo , i think they should build some dog toilets if that is the case ! P.s. even Joshua calls me Coco now. I think i would have enjoyed the art galleries,i did a drawing over Christmas and surprised myself with how good it was even if i say so myself. and no it was not a dot to dot book ! Lots of Love Coco Pops.

Learning about Life - From: An unexpected, horrible event that I can now only learn from...
Reading about this after speaking to you just reminds us how close this was for a disaster for you ! So many people pray for your safety, and we thank God you are alright. We pray for those injured, and if you hear anything about them do share it here with us. Life is precious, and you should live and enjoy every moment, and never take it for granted. Out of bad is always something good to learn from, and I know this is your experience. Continue to have a wonderful time, our love and prayers are with you always mum xxx

Hi - From: Valentines Day in Melbourne...
Glad you are having a great time, you certainly are seeing plenty of the other side. Two jokes for you to share. Two crisps walking down a road. Car stops and says 'Do you want a lift'. No thanks they reply, were WALKERS. Irishman opens a box on the table with 10,000 jig-saw pieces, until his wife comes in and tells him to put the Cornflakes back in the box. All our love, Barry Chris David and Emma x

Kangaroo Love? - From: Finally, the sea again...
In the middle of kangaroo love? Were they sitting down either side of a candle lit table? Sucking on a bit of pasta that eventually meets up? (Lady and the Tramp style) Did they have an Italian guy singing? Did he have a guitar? Was he fat? Did the kangaroos go for a moonlit stroll afterwards, put their paw/feet things in the cement? Oh too many questions. Kangaroo love leaves the mind to boggle.
