I woke up this morning worrying the months were in the wrong order on my Japan calendar. 😬 (They're fine!)

I'll be sending them out as soon as they're here.✨

If you want one, pre-ordering's recommended, as they usually sell out well before Christmas: cakeswithfaces.co.uk/product/japa...

The winter illuminations in Osaka have giant light-up takoyaki 😂

There's a round-up of winter illuminations in my Japan News video - along with gorgeous autumn foliage light-ups: youtu.be/1tNJfOok_0s

Can't believe the Suica penguin's retiring! 😭 They're being replaced by a new mascot at the end of the 2026 financial year, after 25 years of service. There'll be a vote to choose the new mascot.

I'll miss this little guy!

These pics are from the Suica penguin store in Yokohama.

Woohoo, finally sent my calendars off to print!

Felt like it was never going to be done - I spent all Saturday & most of today on the finishing touches & checking all the details. 🔎😅

Woohoo, looks like the new scarves will be ready earlier than expected! 🎉 I'll be sending out the pre-orders as soon as they're here!

Finishing the artwork for my calendar! Adding the Japanese festivals takes ages because some are the same date, some are the 2nd weekend, some are the Saturday after a certain public holiday, and some are random. And there are LOTS!

Thank you Jack for this pic of my book in Tokyo. What a view! 😍

Here's a closer look at the kitsune scarf. The pics are from my manufacturer - I can't wait to see them in real life! ✨

If you want one, you can pre-order it here: cakeswithfaces.co.uk/product/kits... They're due to be ready early December (worldwide shipping). 🦊

Today's "stereotypical anime date" plan featuring @cakeswithfaces.co.uk 's Japan Planning Deck!

Made it to Sunshine City after getting distracted by 5 different arcades and the massive Animate on the way.

Coffee now & Pokemon Center after. Then CoCo curry and the aquarium!

There's Strong Zero at Lidl for Japan Week! (UK)

Technically Strong Zero in Japan is 9% alcohol, but this is close enough. £1.99 each.

Boo, no gig today. 😭 Two band members struck down with covid - we can't play without any guitars or vocals. We're gutted, I was looking forward to this one.

Hopefully we'll get some gigs booked in for the new year. 🤞 Keep an eye on Those Fine Strangers on Insta/FB for updates.
Ska punk fans in Coventry!

Come see my band this Friday at the HMV Empire - make it SKA-lloween this year. 🦇

Warning: today's video might make you hungry!

It's a restaurant round-up from Takayama - every meal there was excellent, and I got to try some local specialities:

✨ Pre-orders are open for my new scarves! ✨

They'll be sent out early December. There are two designs: lucky cat and kitsune. I can't wait to see which is the most popular!

Thanks for this pic wearing the Northern Lights dress in Japan!

Where in Japan could this be...?! 😉

Only a few of this dress left now!

The theme of this pop-up cafe in Japan is: "What if Hokusai opened a restaurant?". It's in conjunction with a Hokusai art exhibition in Tokyo.
