signs that things ain't quite right....

Welcome to Japan where almost everything and everything is labelled. Sadly not always correctly.
Its easy to see how you could miss one or two letters from a foreign alphabet or add a few extras in to make the word look nice. When we went to Kobe for a holiday we had a great time riding on the "shight seeing bus" although the view was poor. Head to Engrish.com for examples of when signs go bad. But more and more I am thinking that Japanese sign writers choose names for how they sound and look rather than what they actually mean; but then how many people have you seen walking around with Chinese and Japanese symbols they can't actually read that are meant to say "peace, love" and Darren" but usually say things like "pig ugly, smells of cabbage and diesel (Someone I knew had that last one)


Restaurants that don't get that many customers....

Japanese snack bars (which I might talk more about later) are places where Japanese men go to have their ego's stroked, however sometimes you kind of wonder where they got their inspiration.

"Yep Thursday nights its a pint in Licky and then a quick shot at PIMP before heading to the classy Lady's market."
