  2. Also if anyone has stayed at the Aqua Alpine Hotel I'd love to hear from you? would love to stay there as Steven Bradbury is my favourite athlete and co - owner of the place ! - check him out on youtube if you don`t know who he is - but I guess he is famous in Syd- Have a great trip
  3. try Hachi Kogen resort in Yabu - gun/ Hyogo there are busses from Osaka- the nearest station is Yono station - just think of Yoko Ono- Y Ono It`s great for beginners - you will be able to find a foreign instructor when you get there -you should have a lesson for one hour- the ski school is called active ski school they where red uniforms it will be easy to spot them - have fun

  5. I think Hotel Grande Belle in Akasaka- Akasaka and Akasaka Mitsuke great part of tthe city- I lke the way it reads back the same as front as well !
  6. haha good thread - I was once given a meishi by the chef at the best sushi restaurant in the land )tenzushi in fukuoka - left it behind on the counter stupidly !
  7. have a look on youtube for treble cone and other resorts surfinsmiley you will get a good visual idea - snow is much lighter here in japan -
  8. agree with CB Hachi KIta and Kogen - maybe Hyonosen they are all in the same area - gd luck !
  9. there will be tons of people there and its hard to get any service due to that -they get very crowded! you are better off heading to kanda imhao -
  10. wouldn`t it be great to have every vehicle in japan slow to a crawl as you approach from behind - ! this is actually real and is / was for sale ! http://www.goobike.com/bike/stock_8701310B30080719004/
  11. gd work Rob and nice work with the graph Mr W - one might say the definition of an alley oop (sp?) - on another note whats the worst it has been in terms of yen earners wanting pints of pounds ? wasn`t it around 230 a few years ago - (thks in advance to Mr W )

  13. haha good thread - theres some good ones there - I nomitate dynaland and hyperbowl ! !
  14. its Ultimate bar Mamabear -It was funny when I read your first post as had cleaned out my wallet / jeans the sun sfternoon after the game and I had acquired a card to that place from the touts outside - that exact same thing has happened to someone I know there they try for something really toppy probably judge by looking at the card what to try for then scale down in increments like you suggest - seems like in your husbands chanwce he was a bit lucky- the thing is they can probably tell if a group is tourists and they know it will be a lot harder to rectify things when the cardholders are lik
  15. The attempts to charge 10K, 10K and 5K (AUD) were at Ultimo or Ultimate Bar, Tokyo - don't know of it myself but that is what the bank said... sry to hear that but it is good that you let people know I can state unequivocally that that place is a known rip off venue -
  16. are we paying attention thurs ?- the all blacks - the final score was 32-19 aus need to go right back to the drawing board imhao - pretty hopeless to rely on Giteau for everything - think they should concentrate on AFL for a while the Ockers
  17. beautiful beautiful country - pleased you had a great trip Zippy
  18. good stuff guys - this will be a great game have tix for sat in the cheap seats but trying to score a ticket for tomorrows `captains run` / training session from a mate at the ground tomorrow which will be a chance to get a bit closer with a bit of luck - off to see the giant rugby ball set up under tokyo tower in a few hours -! Before the game prob AK 917 in Tokyo Midtown bar if anyone keen - great showcase for NZ I`ll take the All Blacks and give Australia a 6pt start ! final score : NZ 28 - Aus 19
  19. cool - where is the link on that pg SJ pls ?-am I going to blind ?
