Take two Panadol (paracetamol) before you sleep. Takes care of the headache in advance. Works a treat for me.

Ridiculous claims
Chris_3211 replied to Thundercat's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
Seriously!? You're going to use a photo of the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route (IN NAGANO!!!) to make a ridiculous claim about Niseko? Anyone else come across any doozies these days? This photo is certainly not from this year, it is a promotional photo that is used by some of the travel agents I have seen it before! It also looks like it has been photo shopped as there are no people in this one unlike the ones I have seen. There is one floating around on Facebook claiming (saw it on the burton page) the same thing 20m etc etc 2012 record year, shame the photo was taken in 2009 -
It is ingrained into most Asian cultures, respect for others and discipline (maybe not all but most). I have been in some restaurants is South Korea where there were tables full of guys and they were absolutely plastered, not once were they rude, they did not want to fight... They were just having a good time. I remember once the table was apologetic because they knocked a glass bottle on the floor and it broke.

(but without knowing the full facts it's easy to jump to conclusions) Australia is a nanny state, they do it to protect the 10% of the gene pool that would qualify for a Darwin award.

The FOOTBALL Thread (2011-2012)

YNWA... Hopefully a good result tonight -
The sad thing is Chris, that clearly these people do share the same interest, which is snow sports in Japan. Rather than attempt to become part of the community, they just want something for nothing. I was kind of hoping that this was just some sort of joke, maybe an albeit misguided icebreaker as a new member of the forums, but sadly it would appear that this is not the case. You do have a point there, sad nonetheless!
