  1. I prefer the non-celeb version of The Apprentice.
  2. Yeah cheese Metabo Oyaji. Did a good job. Next year, yoroshiku.
  3. Great thread idea! I don't know many though. Impressed at the collective knowledge "we" all have ( )
  4. I suppose there will be many coming soon but here's a documentary http://video.pbs.org/video/2202847024
  5. Annoying that it isn't open yet, hey? I see they need 150cm to be able to open that up because it's protected national park but Happo still only has 140cm up top officially. Come on snow, just another 10cm or so. It can't be too much to ask, especially in Hakuba.
  6. Spam and cheese pasta pie. Perhaps Cheeseman, SpamMan and pie-eater could pool efforts...
  7. Is this true?

I still think that we need some decent news coming from Fukushima though to really make a difference.
  9. Been out of Japan for some time now and was shocked to hear all of this. Still am, I have plenty of friends in some of those coastal towns on that east coast that were wiped away. One who is missing presumed dead.
  10. I spent my last 2 months in Japan around the Fukushima and Iwate area and I recognise a few of the places being talked about in all the reports. So so sad and shocking to see it all. Feeling for the people in that area. Gambatte.

  12. Not sure yet. Initial plans are to catch up on the 120,000 posts on here since I last came on!
