Do you ever get the vapors?
Good Day from me Rose. Jump in and enjoy yourself. This forum can be fun…if you don’t weaken. 
Sometimes I do if I’m tired.

Welcome to the forum Rose!
I’m looking forward to reading your posts. I’m pretty sure I’ve never been fishing in Japan, something for my to do list perhaps!
Hello there Rose 
Hi how are you
Having been to Japan it was a bit of a cultural shock, in a nice way. The main ones being how exact everything must be, from train arrival-to meal times- to the politness from the japanese we met. Another thing I have to mention. with a smile on my face, is the custom of bowing. After a few days I felt we should do the same, even after returning home to the UK. Everything was spotless from the roads to the bedrooms to the dining room. Having owned sereral japanese cars I can undestand why they are so reliable
