i hope you don't think my posting was an att attack on you lass i never intendended to tease domo obligato crazyhorse

Hiya

No, I don't think you attacked me.

To me, "Yakuza" sounded very nasty. That's it.
(I found that most of you, westerns associate yakuza, samurai, geisha... with Japan. I feel very sad whenever I find that your(westerners') image towards Japan/Japanese is much poorer than we expect. DEEP SIGH lol)

>domo obligato
You mean 'Thank you'?
Then, Domo "ARIGATO/ALIGATO" instead of "obligato"

my apologies once again all the best .,.,iain

Iain,

Let's forget about it, and start lovely conversation, from the next time, shan't we?
I understand that we have different culture
Believe or not, I studied English Literature at uni when I was young, I've been on the way learning English (you can easily imagine how horrible my English is through my English)

Anyway, I like the UK as well as Japan

Of course, if you don't want to keep conversation with me, it's okay, too.

All I want to do is to Enjoy myself here!

Have a Lovely afternoon

Taamyu

i must say your english is far superior to my rudimentary knowledge of japanese i have worked however ona a peace pagoda an and temple which i enjoyed hey we need a kyoto smiley don't you think

Iain

what do you mean. Do you want to have a Kyoto smiley as a LOGO or you mean the scenary of Kyoto???


I prefer NARA to KYOTO where is more tranquil than Kyoto and where has lots of older historical places than Kyoto.
I love Osaka, my hometown, too.
