Purely by chance Aiko met Jun-chan who is also married to an Englishman. On Saturday night we braved the weather to go and have dinner with the Woodcocks at their place in the center of Tsunashima. There was a typhoon passing Japan so it was windy and rainy but the biggest storm was Archie who was in a foul mood as we left and didn't want to be in or out of the push chair. Millie, meanwhile, rode in the baby carrier and seemed OK but like Archie she didn't have a coat on- parents got themselves sorted but forgot the kids!!
When we finally made it we had a great evening- As soon as Archie saw Nat-chan and Dan-chan his mood completely changed and the rest of the evening was fun, fun, fun! The adults enjoyed their food- especially the homemade pie and cheesecake and John and Chris enjoyed mixing their drinks -Beer, wine and whiskey!Nat-chan comfortably beat John on the Wii Baseball but (competitive) John managed to get some revenge at the 10 pin bowling before his stamina ran out- hard work these modern computer games!! whatev
er happened to jetsetwilly and manic miner....The boys had a bath together- thankfully most Japanese baths are wet rooms otherwise it would have been total chaos!! Then we just had enough time for a bit of Spiderman action before it was home to bed- as you can see Millie was sound asleep!!
