I would like to know about the small onsen towel Is it one size fits all How do you hold it to hide your bits. do you hold it with two hands like a little pinny in front of you, or wrap it round and hold it in place with a piece of ribbon tied in a bow Maybe if they had towels with national flags on you would know what country peopl

Non-smokers deserve more annual leave or pay than smokers.

Take your punishment like a man, I agree with that. I am not treading on egg shells I live in a small village and I know you carn,t please everyone or get on with everybody. But as far as I am concerned you have to respect the host.

[ So in Scotland you never ever break any rules or laws? Never a few km's over the speed limit? Never cross a street except at a designated crossing? I fully admit to breaking a whole lot of rules and laws whilst I lived in Australia. And I can assure you there's going to be more than one or two I break whilst living here. As I've said before I don't consider myself a 'guest' in this country and I just live my life much the way I've always lived it except I do have to shovel a hell of a lot more snow here than I ever did in Aus I am no angle I got done for speeding in Sept. but

Reminds me of racists talking about immigrants back in Australia. As far as I'm concerned Japan is my country and my home now and there are plenty of things I don't like about it but many more things I love about it. And as far as I'm concerned I have every right to discuss things I do and don't like. Why do you dislike this kind of attitude? Do th

It all depends on which context you put it in. If you call someone a paki B@@@@@d yes.But if you say I am just going to the paki shop on the corner no, or I have a paki friend. I think the people from the Indian sub continent are getting oversensitive. "And Brit, Aussies and Kiwi have never been used as racial slurs." Of course not neither paddy, jock, taf, brummies, saverner (as we say in the north.)and th

Its bloody short for Pakistani

One of the local property companies in Hakuba is run by a Kiwi and he employs people to manage lodges, etc. If you picked up a job like that, you would get accommodation provided and probably a ski pass, plus you get to meet many fellow Aussies. I hate to say this but If you are going all the way to japan why would you want to meet fellow aussies why not just stay at home and save the expense.
