Thank you. I'm quite used to planning independent travelling but I admit I'm finding Japan a bit daunting! I think you're absolutely right about learning a little of the language. When my thoughts are a bit more organised I might come back with questions 😀.
Good to know - thank you 🙂
I'm thinking of a trip like that. I assume it was an organised holiday; can you tell which company you went with?
Rather than remove Mr Windsor's naval rank of Vice Admiral, he should be demoted to Able Rate and have to wear the uniform at any future appearance. #noncegate
They've realised that when a fighter pilot reports "Angels at ten o'clock" what they're seeing is actual angels.
"The pilots have been telling us this for years. It's time we started to believe them."
He followed it up with A Few Circles More.
Uh-oh. Trouble brewing. One of the broads has clocked the guy with the hidden camera.
Well, I think Voight is a good match physically and politically. I don't know about Hopkins, and anyway he'd be a lot more expensive.
The role of Mr Windsor is played by Jon Voigt.
Murder mystery series pitch: Mr Mountbatten Windsor is eighth in line to the throne of the United Kingdom.
Episode 1. Now he's seventh.
Episode 2. Sixth.

Potatoes. Because pizza.
I can't decide 😭

Childhood me would have said tomatoes every time.
Weird question but go with it...

If you had to give up either tomatoes or potatoes for life, which one would it be?

Andrew Thames Valley. Or Andrew Eton would stir things up a bit.
(For those who don't know, Eton is just over the river from Windsor)
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. We've been cleaning out gutters in your neighbourhood and can do yours for a very reasonable price while we're here.

My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings. Look upon this one simple trick and the results will surprise you.
Yes, those clouds definitely look menacing. Best to warn folk to stay away.
Officially they didn't. They only had one seat. 😀
Welcome back! I was starting to wonder if all was OK with you.
A good friend of mine had one. She called it a "cripple car". She once gave me a lift back from a party in it. It was a bit cramped for two. 😀
