Day 2 - disaster strikes!

So the company Les works for have screwed them over. They're being evicted on sunday, and having to move to a new flat further out of town, as Nova have not paid the rent for two months, but have been taking it out of their wages nonetheless. Their pay has been delayed by a week, and I've decided to stay until monday to help them move, and also it means I don't have to get up at 6 am to get to the airport, so it's all working out. I got out of the house, the sushi was amazing, I got totally full for ¥700 (only about £3!), then we went all over Shinsabashi and Amemura, seeing loads of shops, Hostos (like Hostesses, but dudes with Rod Stewart hair and cowboy boots) and a few Love Hotels and the odd prostitute, as well as loads of awesomely dressed goth Lolitas, and a huge load of breakdancers outside the OCAT building, who gather there just to practice, it was all very impressive. Now we're hanging out, drinking more convenience store cocktails and chaatting about the problems with Nova. We're going to Kyoto tomorrow! Woo!

poor les! that sounds rubbish. but good of you to stay and help. hostos sound vile, goth lolitas sound cool. all in all, japan sounds adequate. i am eating pepperoni passion pizza with anchovies, made me think of you. yum xxx
