We have no fabric available.  We had to commit to fabric production 8 weeks ago otherwise they would have been a Winter/Spring release…..

@Giles:

but personally I love the constant barrage of announcements you get on Japanese public transport….

Great video, I too love it. I also love how every station has it's own sound. Yoyogi! Yoyogi!

@Giles:

Why do these make me think of this?

[Chiba J.]

Used to be this bar out in Ichikawa called the Crazy Cactus. Originally owned by a gaijin, but later bought by a bit of an eccentric Japanese guy. He decked the place out in aquariums and crayfish ponds. And also a large screen and projector. Whenever I went in for a beer he'd have a DVD of a rural train journey going. Like Giles vid, but for hours upon hours. No wonder he went out of business.

I've thought of getting that, lol. What I was really hunting for was the JR clocks. I love the simplicity of their design, and green/yellow color scheme.

(EG of clock for those who've not seen)

[Megatron1505]

This is my alarm clock, my favourite jingles are Shimbashi, Hamamatsucho and Shinjuku.

Doesn't it get time only from Japanese atomic clock?

[Megatron1505]

You can also do a manual setting, but yes it does work by atomic clock in standard mode.

I just found this photo on my camera.  I love it as it is so typically Japanese.  At least one BA flight leaves Haneda daily, but the check-in staff  MUST have a full briefing every flight…..
