I’ve just had my second travel related piece published - this time it’s in the excellent weekly free magazine/paper One Week To Live which you can get in London (and in some other big UK towns too). Last I remember you can grab it in most places, shops, clubs, etc… The piece is called Yabai! (Japanese slang for bad, as in meaning good) and is about Tokyo: the cool, the eccentric and the funny. It’s in the fashion section, which is kinda funny seeing as fashion and me don’t really get on that well :lol: .

Anyways if you’re in London check it - oneweektolive.com for more info on where to find it. Enjoy! I’ll post up a pdf of it later on this week.

Your internet connection goes down and you find yourself unable to stop clicking the refresh button for the best part of an hour after you’ve confirmed that it is indeed down and you’re unable to find out when it’ll be back.

Your only thoughts are things like: ‘I really want to check my emails right now’, ‘I wonder what the weather is like in Burkina Faso right now’, ‘I know I’ll check the news on the BBC site, oh shit I can’t', ‘It’s only the internet I can just sit down and read a book for the night’ (only to find yourself looking at the computer on the table and eyeing the icon in the tray to see if it’s not miraculously fixed itself).

I mean it is only the internet and not having it for a night isn’t the end of the world, but it sure as hell feels like it when the realisation dawns on you :lol: . Christ I really do have an addiction :sad:. I know I can be weak minded when it comes to the net but it is funny…
