Bit of a strange blip today but it's a shot of the new clothes airer that I bought today to replace the one that I gave to Paul for use at uni. Turns out it's not very easy to take an interesting shot of a clothes airer... but you're not surprised by that, are you?!

Japanese class again tonight. Learnt how to introduce someone else and to say which company you work for. It doesn't sound much, but it took 2 hours! The teacher also explained a bit about how the three different types of writing are used - hirigana, katakana and kanji - and how Japanese children learn them all as they grow up. It's all starting to make a bit of sense - until she asks you to say something and then your mind goes completely blank!
