I suspect some of you will have noticed there was a massive earthquake in Japan the other day. Ever prepared, I was able to grab my digital camera in time to shoot some video of the action - check it out here (12MB).

My other news is I have started a new job at Picsel.

Happy New Year everyone - apologies for the lack of seasons greetings this year. Had an exam the beginning of December (JLPT Level 2 - results February) which meant lots of last minute cramming and then had to go to Washington DC at short notice for a week on business, following which I took a few days break to visit the family in Boston, basically meaning December was a total washout in terms of Christmas cards and year end communications. By way of apology and as an antedote to the traditional Christmas News Letter I have prepared a photo slide show with the highlights of the year:

You can see the full clip here. You can also see a preview of the latest photos and videos here and some shots from my various travels around the world here. Promise to get things up to date sometime soon(?)

Was looking at alternative routes from London to Tokyo the other day. If you're not so fussy about journey time there are some bargains out there - here's one worth considering. London - Tokyo
