Re: Food for Thought
Thanks for the good news Marian, I was in both places in 1993 hope it was the same then, all the people seemed normal, in fact a lot of us were in Japan in the 1950's and they were pretty normal then

Re: Food for Thought
Was in J pan three years ago and all is in order.

Happy daze John in Oz.
