  1. I Sapporo go to yodobashii just behind the JR station...not as cheap as akihabara but still ok
  2. I think we have to accept the fact that every country is guilty of hypocrisy. Every country has to think of self interest as well as world responsibilities. 9/11 has provided a forum for people like us to talk about where we are going and what kind of future we want. A little positive thinking is whats needed.....and some powder.....
  3. I have teneighties for the groomers - lots of fun! - and Dynastar 4x4's for the powder but looking at may be getting another set of skis possibly an all rounder - any suggetions
  4. Put on loads during summer - currently carrying a bit of a spare tyre - lots of hiking in winter brings it down. Not looking so likely now - ski pants may be a little tighter than before......
  5. The best thing to do is go to the resort you like and just hang out make your face known and tell everyone you want to work there - A friend of mine worked at a resort in Chugoku region - he had a great deal but he needed a Japanese CV and an intro from a Japanese contact - its not what you know its who you know right? He had an awesome deal though......free accom, pass meals and about 15o,ooo a month in pay......worked pretty hard though.
  6. my point exactly scouser...who cares what you ride as long as you ride right?
  7. el diablo! Very frisky! It just strikes me a sa bit of a wste of time....typing is a little faster, ne?
  8. Niseko...new bar...dancing girls and peanuts.......oh yeah
  9. Ocean.. I lived in Hiroshima for 5 years and the locals dont spend this time of year harping on about what happened to them. They are fully aware that its two sided thing and they are probably as much to blame as the US. I used to teach an old guy who had no legs was blind and was riddled with cancer....he doesnt get upset about the bomb - hes glad it ended the war. And as for all the children saying they'll do there bit for peace, you make it sound like it never happens back home. I can distinctly remember teaching kids back in Scotland who were little bastards until red nose d
  10. Ocean...I think we all agree that the new SW movies suck but surely you can recognise the class involved in the early series, Yes its corny...its about laser guns light sabers and hairy walking men big and tall! But thats what makes it great. Theres no such thing as a non corny space movie....
  11. I think everyone here is missing the point the whole point of the exercise is to get from the top of the hill to the bottom...boards are faster in powder, skiers land bigger jumps - surely we should celebrate the differences, enjoy one anothers company and hug! Happoshu - failed beer
  12. in Geihoku for three years and Kokusai is definetly the best although its expensive... It was best for me because I lived there. Osorokan is by far the best because its right next to the IC.(Togouchi)...snow quality is good too but its insanely busy on the weekend....in fact anywhere near Hiroshima is a 40 minute wait to get on a lift followed by a 15 second straight line...Probably best to go on a week day!!!
  13. multiplayer on Halo.....4 players...all weapons...I defy anyone to come up with a better game.....
  14. Saw an advance showing at my local theatre I agree with nofakie the romance bit sucks a lbit but at least r2 and co seem on form and there are stormtroopers...sometimes the simple dialogue scenes are bit too busy.... and yes, Yoda rules!
  15. Anyone see Episode 2 yet....Yoda rocks and has clearly spent a bit of time indulging in some extreme sports.....probably on Hoth somewhere......look out for the light saber dinner roll......
  16. Anyone who says England is living in cloud cukoo land.....anyway who says Brazil has no imagination.... most exciting will be Spain....9 goals in three games winner???? If the first round has taught us anything its not to make predictions....
  17. As you know, the cockerel is the emblem of the french. The are in fact represented by cocks...I was hoping that uruguay would dump them out of the wc but after horribly inconsistent refereeing and blatant simulation by dario Silva I found myself willing the auld alliance onwards....looks like they are out tho
