Hey 'Potters!

Long time no see.

This article's pretty funny:

So now beautiful Japan is the victim:

When we sent money to Japan before arriving here (from Australia) it took at least 2 weeks for the first lot of money to get to the Japanese bank- because the Japanese bank "wanted to call us first...

Is it the garfield avatar that did it for you? :rolleyes:

That's the real reason you're coming back to Japan isn't it? You secretly love Paulh :)

rofl....... :D

Sometimes the most innocent looking things can be the most deadly... Watch out! There's some air behind you...

Yes, he'd need to be careful though, because those individual blades can be lethal when their environs are disturbed.

Yes, but there is are some others being planned at the moment:

1. Big blade (where hundreds of cameras are trained 24 hours a day on tightly packed blades of grass)

2. The biggest mower...

I agree with you on the Hijinx avatar thing.

You're right, it's extremely exciting.

Personally, I'm looking forward to the next installment in the epic TV series "watching your grass grow".

That sounds suspiciously like our friend J.T

I know. Sadly from supposedly educated ones.

Although we all know the only thing dodgier than the Australian education system is Nova.

People that pronounce the letter H as "haitch" rather than "aitch".

...and also: to, too and two :)

My pet hate:

"asteriks" instead of "asterisk"
"aks" instead of "ask"

I always read hijinx(x), Burly, kurogane and nosferatu (sp?). I also read J.T but that's more because it's like a car crash that you can't stop looking at. :p

Perhaps she is innocent, but what makes you so sure?

Let's stop arguing and just agree that all politicians suck (some may suck more than others, but at the end of the day they all suck). :p

Really?

Perhaps you'd care to elaborate?

How is George Bush a centre or even centre-right politician?

IMHO,

Australian politics:
All politicians are crap and are only out to screw the taxpayer so they have money to promise as welfare payments to people that shouldn't be on welfare.
...

Isn't it where ever you post?

I doubt it.

You are more likely to be surrounded by people who do nothing but complain about Japan.

Yeah, I agree. stackz is a pretty good program.

Just need to motivate myself more to use it rather than sitting on this foum :p

I passed! Only level 4, I know, but here are the scores:

89/100 writing/vocab
65/100 listening
150/200 reading/grammar

As you can see I really need to put some work into my listening! :p
