		<description><![CDATA[Hmmm&#8230;. some interesting English there! Yep, Japan has somehow managed to mix US Marine Core with English Lessons with Cute-Animated Characters. Take a look here at JapanSugoi&#8217;s Report on it. Great, now Japanese can learn how to say &#8220;I am a smart Mother F**ker&#8221;, which is something that we can all use in everyday speech.

		<description><![CDATA[Weekend I&#8217;m bloody knackered! It was a full weekend, over in London for Yuko&#8217;s cousins last weekend in the UK. Once again, I&#8217;ve come to the conclusion that London is just an overpriced, overrated place. If you want excellent big city fun, go to Tokyo or Osaka! Still, the weekend was OK. We went up [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ouch. That&#8217;s a nasty looking typhoon. Went through pretty much the same area where we used to live too. Yuko&#8217;s cousin is coming out to the UK, though it turned out he wasn&#8217;t that affected. His flight was &#8216;only&#8217; delayed by 90 minutes. Will find out later today if it was a bumpy take off. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[At last, something decent on TV. Heroes has finally arrived onto Digital Terrestrial TV in the UK (after some showings on Satellite and Cable) over at BBC2. First two episodes were last night. It&#8217;s quite amusing because there is a Japanese character, with some bits being in Tokyo (well, maybe not all bits&#8230; there were [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some stuff on the BBC about the upcoming elections in Japan. Here and here. It got me thinking. Koizumi, the previous PM, was very media savy&#8230; whereas Abe is considered quite dour and boring (even if it was thought he was quite clever and intellectual). So, the media savy one leaves, and it all goes [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That&#8217;s today&#8217;s random links. First up, we have something on some rather interesting displays at a Japanese shop, selling computer games. It looks like NOVA has got itself into more trouble&#8230; which could end up meaning there&#8217;s going to be lots of unemployed English teachers in Japan. (Mind you, from what I&#8217;ve heard, a large [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[NHK&#8217;s 10 o&#8217;clock news had an interesting article about how the Japanese language is changing. It did amuse me about how it was reported though, as if there was this great suprise about it happening. To me, it just reminded me Japanese is just the same as any other language&#8230; constantly evolving. Actually it was [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; or Natsukashii, which roughly translates as &#8216;Nostalgic feeling&#8217;. Yuko suffered a bit of that yesterday. As I have described before, we often record the NHK English (and other) language programmes on TV. Normally we watch them on the Saturday or Sunday, as it gives us the opportunity to sit down and watch together. Also [...]]]></description>
