      Mme B is just booking us on "Japanese For Fun", an evening course at the local college.  Apparently I will learn how to tie a cotton kimono, super useful…...

          While I'm in this thread… I came across this interesting read published earlier in the year about the Osaka 5 denim brands. Good stuff here: http://www.japanesestreets.com/reports/1313/the-quest-for-perfect-jeans

              No.  I understand a lot, but have never attempted to learn anything apart from the bare essentials.  My signature phrase is Debu, which I say regularly whilst patting my over-taught stomach after yet another feast, Haraki does the same.  We both always piss ourselves laughing, it means "fat", pathetic I know, but it keeps us amused…..

                                    For the record (and I will not get drawn into any discussions about the pro's and con's of any of my retailers),  I have no written contract with any of them, my view is if you need to get legal, you're fucked before you start.  This is a tiny business, you fuck somebody over, it'll bite back hard.
