Tokyo

Phyllis and I shall be returning to Japan for a third time next Spring, dear reader.

My clever beau entered a competition in the Metro newspaper a wee while back, launched to publicise Film Four going free-to-air. The first free film they were showing was Lost In Translation, so the prize was a holiday, an homage, if you like, to the film.

We fly direct from London, get to stay in a swanky hotel in Tokyo for five nights and do all the things of note that the lead characters did: the restaurant, the nightclub, the karaoke...! We also get ¥40,000.00 spending money!

I'm so excited, I could vomit.

One thing I'm really excited to see agian, and our second trip to Japan is only a couple of weeks away, is Japanese pet dogs dressed up like dolls. Click here to see some fashions for your pooch.
