Who has heard of Kurohime? ( Any good? ) -
Thats a good point. What I'm always scared of is the old ojisans and obasans who seem to have no control over their bikes wobbling all over the place and then suddenly deciding to turn left without warning. Always give them good space!

Got an early birthday present from a good friend last week - complete box set of One foot in the grave. For those who don't know, it's a UK comedy about a grumpy old man. Basically. Brilliant.

Buying a new pc (interesting Dell info)
merryJim replied to naganodave's topic in General off-topic discussions
USB coffee cup warmer! It warmed up the wrong end did it? I have had no problems with new PCs I have bought. Usually the first thing I do before installing anything is uninstall all the junk on there. There's some guys at work who still have all that on their desktop - they don't use it - and even kept the (now worn out) sticker with the specs on their NEC from 4 years ago. -
Best snow mountain to photograph

Those mountains in the Alps in Toyama are hard to beat. As are the Hakuba peaks. -
Looks like there's not much left of the building!

Tateyama on a budget?

Just like to add to that - very lovely area and good onsen too. I was there last October and it was perfect weather when we were there. Really good few days. -
I like Wednesdays as we have meetings and I basically do nothing. It is a good time for day-dreaming.

SLRs are just too bulky and me not being a particularly avid photographer, a good small digital camera does me just fine.

Have you climbed Mt Fuji?
merryJim replied to nzlegend's topic in Snow talk, trip reports, Japan avalanche & backcountry
I'm hoping to do it before summer. I want to go when it is least busy. Any top tips on when that might be, or does such a day even exist?
