福袋 [Fukubukuro] a.k.a Lucky Bags
Dammit… Apple Japan is ‘giving’ away a fair bit of nice kit for a lower price it seems.
May have to contact one of my collegues (from my old dept.), who is in Japan for 4 months taking over from me, to go down to Ginza and pick up some goodies. Assuming of course he’s not too busy chatting up and dating the pretty girls in the office, damn him, the young single whipper-snapper.
Yuko was in a good mood today. She excitedly texted me around about lunchtime, saying she’s found out that a store in Cardiff market is selling 海胆[Uni] or Sea Urchin. Yuko loves Uni, me… I’m rather not fussed about it. Then again, eventually in a few years I may end liking it. It took me 2 years to aquire a taste for raw oyster (and then, it has to be done in a good place only, and served with Japanese style ポン酢[Ponzu] dressing. Anyway, we’ll be eating fish tomorrow… woohooo (my goodness. What has Japan done to me. My folks will be shocked, as I was never really a fish eating person, apart from the odd bit of cod).
