    On a recent holiday abroad there was a sign next to the pool which said “No large floaters in the pool”

    Hotel in Rhodes was pretty decent, we had our own garden and pool…

    We didn’t actually use the pool, but it was nice to look at. <laugh>

    Having a cracking time in Japan, and what I wasn’t expecting is that it’s not too expensive.

    Just had a meal at a little vegan restaurant in Tokyo in a bit with the loads of expensive designer shops etc and 2 courses each for two of us, with Mrs Tash having one soft drink and me having a couple of large beers, was £33.

    Considering where is was that seemed very decent, and despite doing all the tourist spots I haven’t paid more that £5 a pint anywhere.

    EDIT - what reminded me was I’m sat in the hotel bar drinking FREE whiskey. A nice daily ‘very happy’ hour routine

    You can get more usual stuff of course but I’m sticking to local

    Are you finding it a bit quiet after the vibrant 24 hour city of Hull?

    Using my limited knowledge of the Japanese language, I believe that sign says "Hull Tigers Marketing Department - established by Assem Alam 2014".

    I also found Asahi for less than £1 a glass! (Not quite a pint, but bigger than a 330ml bottle)

    I always assumed Japan would be expensive for food and drink. Bargain.

    I've still got Fish Out, Sack Dolan and Allam Out stickers, they'd confuse them.
