Cabbage futures speculator on the Daikon Prairie.

I post mainly random stuff about life in Tokyo/Japan, as and when the mood takes me and/or I have too many pictures on my phone.
My peace would be shattered if I were snoozing comfortably then suddenly a disembodied voice spoke to me out of nowhere... (Either that, or I'd start a religion).

Correction:

Hayao Miyazaki, Donald Trump, Muhammad Ali — the Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Japan has played host to an impressive range of political and cultural figures over the decades, and also Donald Trump.

So, I've only ever transited at Dubai Airport, but going out on a limb, I'd say this "Valley" place is not in those parts of Dubai people have ever heard about.

Damn, I scanned the text and saw "Crewe Works" and "Class 85s" and was hoping I'd slipped back in time a few decades.

If it's any consolation, I spent far too much time yesterday learning about the inner workings of fluorescent light units because we have one which came with the house and is now making an annoying buzzing noise and any way of resolving it will involve a number of unsatisfactory options.

Not showing the lower arms is a classic way of avoiding the whole "this person has more fingers/hands than the average" thing.

How can we be sure this Fidji Simo person is not AI-generated?

As I child, I believe I was able to identify the make and model of most kinds of car on the road in western Europe until about 1982...

Whoops, I expressed myself ambiguously there - it's my son who was fascinated by drains, I was merely mildly excited to discover a new kind after getting to know every type in the neighbourhood.

I usually watch NHK midday news on NHK+ or whatever they call it when eating my lunch, and noticed I'd taken to fast-forwarding past any appearance of that country's president and/or associates.

I've also massively cleaned up my timeline here by putting that surname beginning with "E" on mute.

But what if the bears come equipped for a four-day siege?

Can't think of a reason why I'd need a listening device in my home directly connected to a major international corporation. Or any kind of corporation.

Dunno about that, but the effin' Easter Bunny has been laying eggs up here...

I have "fond" memories of a period when every drain we passed had to be inspected, and one time we went somewhere different and I was almost excited to note it was a kind of drain we had not seen before...
