Is there a train back from Shibuya at 2 am?

the first train is at 4.45am; the last train is at midnight

the queue is insane, i went to check out where it ends and found that the mob has totally blocked out the other booths (Iron Heart - Studio d'Artisan - PBJ - WareHouse - TFH) till TFH which is at the other end of the tent and then went into a curve which congested the entrance too
the team is awesome and took everything in their stride without any trouble at all, even when the customers started dropping their pants everywhere when the dressing rooms got too crowded (Giles had to bring some of them to the back so that nobody will trip over a misplaced pair of shoes)
and the fans all patiently waiting for their autographs, handshakes and photo opportunity from Haraki and Giles… oh, and one simply cannot let them walk away from the booth by themselves coz they'll take ages to return (keep getting waylaid by fans waiting in ambush)

i hope everyone enjoyed the photos, i have dementia and brought all the wrong lenses to the event… so was just using my iphone instead

it is good to see everyone again, thanks for letting me crash in without notice!!

@Giles:

see the madness…..

i may be able to document the madness this year…. if my leave gets approved (hahaha!!)

@Giles:

Over to you @dylantbmayes

i like that camo hat, i want one too

i also like the way Mr G puts his knees and feet together in the pic, looks very modest

it's awesome, nice and peaceful on a weekday to enjoy the hike and the view
my IH T-shirt is slightly wrecked now though, since i've been diligently washing it after every hike and wearing it again for the next one

Lion Rock

is the picture a hint to the theme of the carnival?

@Megatron1505:

1. I have no idea what those things are called, or where to buy a new one. Google has proved surprisingly shit on this task.

if you google roof tile clips there should be a lot of information available, but depending on the type and shape of tile used the clip will differ as well.

i can't help with 2) or 3) though….

thanks for sharing the lovely pictures!! had much fun looking at them. hope mrs snowy's leg is much better and safe trip home

@Giles:

Great.  I'm there on my own in about 5 weeks - then hopefully we'll both be back again on November….

November sounds like a better possibility, hopefully can arrange something fun for u both. i know of a nice little town near Hachioji that's beautiful in Autumn… scenic hiking and trout fishing~ and of course, safe cuisine for the Madame to enjoy

@Giles:

Thank, Paula and I knew it was there and spent ages looking for it last time we were there, we failed…...

if we meet up in Japan the next time, please allow me to be your lousy guide

not sure if it's correct put this here but mods are free to move/delete this post if they want

The Flat Head has just opened a new outlet at Hachioji near the JR station so those planning to visit The Works now has an additional denim store to visit

New Viberg Hikers

lovely Hikers  :-*, and in my size too… sigh

i seriously hate it when after reading a site's F&Qs saying that they accept international buyers, proclaim otherwise when it's time to checkout the purchases (US credit card and Paypal a/c only) 

m fine with men in pink tutus too… haven't seen it paired with Sj yet though

size XS
