Walthamstow Marshes

I walked to Walthamstow Marshes today. I had some problem at home so I decided to come here. I walked and walked for few hours. Today there's snow and all over UK was frosted. Walthamstow Marshes are historic place and there's wild life, beautiful nature and a river. There's some bridges so you can across to the other side. Then I bought a bag of potato snack by Watermint Quay. It's a Jewish grocer and most of their product were written in Hebrew. Don't know what it says but it taste fine and it was cool to see some Hebrew text. Then I walked toward Seven Sisters/Tottenham Hale and I returned home. I haven't done much run recently but I got the time 20:52 I hope to go faster next time.

New jogging route in London

I have been doing occasional run from my mum and sister's flat from Stamford Hill to Manor House station and the distance is nearly 4km. I run this distance within space of around 21 minutes-ish. Last week I managed to run in time of 21:22. I would like to run this distance in 20 minutes or something like that.

It's simple course but it's not bad.

England v France

I hardly watched the game... I was too busy looking for work and attending some interviews etc. I'm getting pressurised due to not getting any work and I need it quickly. I need to get out of my mum and sister's small flat and I got to get some money to the house. I'm going to give another 4 or 5 days or else I have to pick this sales work. Anyways from what I know England lost to France 1-2 at home, The New Wembley and played awful. The usual physical, long ball towards big man like Andy Carroll etc. We just don't have good players and we have best club manager like Capello but no progress and it looks really depressing but the good news is much delayed Burton project will start from next year and should all be complete by 2012. St. Georges Park the first England's National Football Centre. And then we can develop and train the new coaches and players. It's sort of famous French Clairefontaine of English version.

Anyways I've been back for 2 weeks and half and I need to sort everything quickly... I think my wife and son likes London, England a lot. My wife don't like the weather here but apart from that all good really. My son smiles a lot since he moved to London so that's good.

The Ninja Warriors Again

I played this game yesterday and managed to complete it!! It was produced by Taito but actually it was created by Natsume. Again... it's because there was old one called The Ninja Warriors!! Dunno much about it cos I haven't played much but this 2nd game is really good for a 16 bit game. Great graphics, great music and good action. It's basically about a dictator trying to take over the world and opposition politician created this special ninja robots to destroy this dictator. I'd say play it cos it's worth your time!! If you like Final Fight then you'll love it!!

The war drags ever on!!

I've been listening to Tank the NWOBHM band a lot. I only had their debut album "Filth Hounds of Hades" and it sounds like poor version of Motörhead but from the 3rd "This Means War" they become more Metal and faster and heavier. I really like their 4th "Honour & Blood" and it's bloody good!! I love it. They were rather on and off but now they are active again without their main man singer/bassist Algy Ward. They are back with Scottish singer Dougie White (ex-Rainbow and Yngwie Malmsteen etc).
New album is good but it's kinda reminds me of Saxon. Dougie's voice is similar to Biff at times and music is also bit like recent modern Saxon albums but it's a great comparison to have. I hope they carry on cos they are great band!!

Back in UK!!

I took my family to London, England. It's been nightmare but now it's all over but I still have to do many things. Took me about 9 months to sort out marriage, spouse visa, birth and my son's passport. It costed me dearly. I went through very tough time.

It's been 10 days since the arrival but seems like my wife and son is very happy to be with my mum and they like the city of London.

I much prefer being here because Tokyo was extremely crowded, busy, so narrow and everything was so small and no grass field to plays football. Not so much nice environment. Concrete jungle...

Tokyo has great theme parks, safe to be at night and lot's of shops open late at night, very convenient but not for me really.

I learnt to appreciate nice people from Japan and they are precious people. I will miss them. I also enjoyed my job. I lived in Tokyo for 5 years and that's quite longish time.

I met my beautiful wife and had lovely son and gained so much.

Thank you!!




My journey start from here again!!
