A Brit in Japan since 2003. #ITFC. Kendo.
“Boys, do you like bangers and mash?” “We love it!!” Result.

First breakfast back in the UK. The Japanese mind cannot comprehend this. My boys loved it, too.

Relief. I thought my car’s AC had picked the worst time to pack up, but instead I had mistakenly turned off the AC and nearly cooked myself on the drive home with the fan mode.

Mass is having fun without us....😢 #itfc
Very enjoyable content. Millwall’s players playing head tennis in a pool and losing their minds when someone ruins it 🤣🤣
I got permanent residency in Japan 12 years ago today!! Just popped up in my Facebook memories!!
Congratulations to @bunburyoudoujp for finding another couple of live ones this morning. It’s been entertaining but I must really get to work!! I’m also reevaluating whether I should be in Japan as I’m apparently causing psychic and metaphysical disturbances.
And for dessert, high protein strawberry and cream pot. Cottage cheese and Greek yogurt blended with strawberries, a little vanilla and sugar, layered with chopped strawberries and topped with melted chocolate.

I know it’s hot here in 🇯🇵 at the moment, but a farmer friend gave us some potatoes and we had a random pack of shirataki in the fridge, so it’s niku-jaga (meat and potatoes) for tea tonight!!

In Shimo-Kitazawa there’s a great little shop that sells Hot Wheels and stickers. That’s it. Most cars are only ¥180!! There are some collectibles that are much more expensive. Always take my boys there!!

Took my youngest to his Eiken test this afternoon in Kawasaki. He thinks he did well. After that, he suggested going to Shimo Kitazawa - my favourite place, too - to spend some money his grandparents gave him. Bought a Hot Wheels car and then to Good Heavens for a pint!!


Ngl, I think that’s the best bolognese sauce I’ve ever made.

Let's make it happen!

First 冷やし中華 (chilled Chinese noodles) of the year!! I can’t take credit for it though. My wife prepared it - I merely plated it up.

VAR decisions not going Antlers’ way…. Just like #itfc


Drinking a beer in view of the pitch! Japan is the future!!
