My Swedish great-nephew, Master Felix's very first birthday

party was held with great ceremony on Saturday, 30th July in Sweden. 

Many Happy Returns of the Day ! 

July Roundup. 

Dec took this photo of a Starbucks coffee tumbler

which we gave him so many years ago. 

Nice to see that it is still in good condition. 

It currently is in use in Elephant & Castle,  East London; 

quite a ways from its original home. 

Some fireworks post-covid in Fukushima Prefecture. 

The weather was apparently super-hot and humid though. 

This new very cool Pokemon sign for the Abukuma Train Line. 

See Shidax ( aqua coloured vertical stripe ) in the background. 

Tofu nabe for dinner to warm up during a bitterly cold Australian Winter. 

Fukushima City night view. 

Tokyo from above ... how wonderful it looks.

Cancer the Crab 

My horoscope courtesy of Oscar Cainer: 

Education is supposed to be informative. It teaches us how to ought ( and ought not ) to conduct ourselves. Now, though, with the passage of time, do you ever look back and see that the teachers didn't always get it right ? That although some of what you learned is still appropriate, some of the 'facts' need to be reassessed ? We all sometimes wonder how much of the past is trustable and how long it will be before the future causes us to question it. If something you used to believe in seems doubtful, that's no bad thing. 

You've absolutely nailed it, Mr. Cainer. Spot on the mark.
