7pm in Tokyo - heading out to dindins. Still bright at 7 but dark by 8. Long evenings back in the UK when it was still bright at 10pm was nice from time to time. The current busy schedule means that we eat out often but do try to eat as much veggies...

7pm at the local shopping area grabbing a bite of Yakitori. Yakitori is roast bits of chicken on a stick. Many places cook them on open grills just like the photo. Apart from chicken, they also have various meats and veggies too. This place is situa...

Another after dindins walk and another discovery snapped with the Lumix LX3. Was having a chat with wifey about how I regret not taking more pics when we lived in Seattle. We hardly have any pics of our lives in the US. Living through memories is nic...

Tokyo 7PM-ish. In the car on the way home from a networking dinner. Taken on the Lumix LX3.

Two ecchi posts in a row - time to cover up with a Japan post. Most evenings we take a stroll after dindins around the neighborhood. Even though we've been living here for more than 3 years, we are always discovering new places like this Izakaya. An...

Been living in this neighborhood for about 3 years now but only recently noticed that I hadn't tried this place out for food. One of the rare occasions where I didnt have any Figma or Nendoroids on me ^^; Had a craving for Fried Rice - called Chaha...

Sorry folks for server going MIA. Just one line of code was enough to bring down the server - spent pretty much all day trying to figure out the problem. Initially thought it was hackers and was looking for security holes. I launched the Japanese Ne...

Tonight's dinner is juicy sweet tender bouncy cat fish....

7pm in the lounge relaxing after din dins with some TV, dessert and SAFS - Griffon Tamaki and Megahouse Nanako Sakura. The official photos of Sakura don't do her any justice at all - shes really gorgeous. As for Tamaki, Sukumizu+White socks+Sailor...

Actually much later than 7pm - about 20 mins ago on the way home from an awesome networking event at Appliya - the folks who have been making a ton of Evangelion iPhone apps. Met a ton of folks including top folks from Apple and Broccoli too - they o...

Been working many changes to the site - not much difference on the front end but huge on the backend. Spent most of the day prepping the site to be updated in the evening. After dindins and our evening stroll, came back to roll out the updates. Site...

Filling up the humidifier with water. A humidifier is called Kashitsuki [加湿器] and are used in the Winter for many reasons over here. One of the reasons is that most of the heating is provided by an air conditioner which really dries out the air le...

Taken an hour after 7 actually while having a walk down our local shopping mall. Came across this poster plugging 3強ヒーロー [さんきょうひーろー] or "3 strong heroes." I enjoyed all movies including Hancock which many folks seemed to dislike. Lookin...
