OT: Me in Japan

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

Bit self indulgent I know, but I,ve just figured out how to use NSC over here and I can,t find the good luck thread (thanks by the way!).

Everything fine and dandy, just settling in now - think I,ll like it here, even with no apostophy key...

Hope you,re all well back home - sing a song for me this Saturday!!!

Right - time to go buy some SPAM (seriously - just saw a foreign food store with huge stacks of the stuff!) and some tea which isn,t green. I don,t care how much it costs, I must have it!!!

PS: school girls everywhere.

You perv.

Say hello to them from me.
Enjoy

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

I will do!

Not sure how I,m going to get on with this time difference - I,m on NSC in the middle of the afternoon and there only three other users online!

What scares me most is Saturday games kicking off at midnight and midweek games... well, I probably shouldn,t even think about getting up for those!

 

[Everest]

You shouldn't even think about "getting up" & "schoolgirls" in the same breath either.

Funny moment I had yesterday - in the elevator, a Japanese man got in, after selecting his floor he asked if I was german, I told him I was English, to which he just replied "BECKHAM!"

It was like that old advert. "Bobby Charlton... Nobby Stiles..."

 

[Everest]

You should've said you were Beckham. I'm sure he would've believed you. Free drinks, schoolgirls etc.

I hope you bow down to to the Japs.

ello mate, there's a few of over here on here. if you know what i mean. i find the midnight k.o. experience not to bad (its better when the clocks go forward. there's always places open to celebrate/drown your sorrows after anyway. what you doing? travelling? workin?

oh and the apostrophe is on the number 7 key

have a good one

by the way, why did the guy ask you if you were german? do you look especially teutonic?

 

[Crete Seagull]

Have you been to the Ropongi district yet...if not be prepared ...take loads of dosh...your'll need it

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

what you doing? travelling? workin?

Working - I'm an English teacher. I've not started yet so I'm busy exploring Shizuoka and stocking up on essentials from the hundred yen store!

by the way, why did the guy ask you if you were german? do you look especially teutonic?

I hope not!

oh and the apostrophe is on the number 7 key

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Great stuff - I'd actually given up looking!

Nice to see ya settling in well Cous... Where's me friggin postcard?

 

[alan partridge]

the hundred yen store is amazing. cheaper than the pound shop with more stuff and far far better quality.

i was in one yesterday and found a tongue scraper and a d.i.y. dentist kit which included a nasty looking scraper thing for tartar and one of those little angled mirror thingys

 

[Shizuoka Dolphin]

Postcards will be in the post soon! Honest!

I think the 100 Yen store will be a regular staple of my life here, I think it works out about 80-90p or something doesn't it? Quality!

Whereabouts are you in Japan AP? I've just bought myself a nice big map so I can point it out.

 

[fatboy]

Do the Safeway laugh.


That is bound to scare off/impress the Japanese.

 

[alan partridge]

even less than that i think mate, dunno what the rate is at the moment. i'm in hiroshima, to your left a bit
