That would fail horribly.


Meh :P It would be worth a try. Plus only the richer better class GRcaders would be able to go ;)


So that's me going, who else?


I'd go. While we're there we should go bowling.

Where abouts in Shinjuku was Freshness Burger, don't think I went there last time, the Jazz Club one sounds awesome. My friends have told me about a ninja themed resteraunt, defintly going there!

I'm going back to the Aqua Park and my goal is to high five either a Penguin, Sea Lion, Dolphin or Turtle.

Ah, it wasn't Jazz club themed, it just had that kind of laid back atmosphere. Plus the guy behind the till looked like that Muppet that plays the blues/saxaphone.

It was near my hotel (Shinjuku Prince). You walked down a sidestreet that had Mos Burger on one side, and Freshness Burger was on the other. It's expensive, but they make it there and then and it's damn good! Sweet Potato fries is where it's at!

Or if for some reason you need something else, don't know why you would though as that's probably the best out there also try Total Video Converter.

In almost 24 hours I will be flying to Japan to begin my adventure, now there's a situation, an annoying one.

I was supposed to meet my gf at the airport when I arrive but she has an interview and can't make it, fair enough, I can make my way to the hotel and meet after but wait, she insists she sends her friend 2 hours to come meet me then we all go out afterwards meaning after 3 months, first time I see her will be shared with her annoying friend. :fp:

Anyway, that annoyed me but it's only a minor thing.

In a few hours I have to do online check-in. I get to choose what seat I have but also have no idea which seats would be best. Anyone got a suggestion? Window seat, front of plane? I don't know.

Yes, they come out the armrests. The TV might be on the wall in front of you, but you'll have control over it. Probably out the armrest though.

The emergancy exit chairs do have the best leg room, something I need being of my height. The only problem I find is you do get a slight (cold) draft, which might be a problem on a long haul.

Didn't think of that, something like that would suck and i'm quite short so don't really need the extra leg room. Don't want to get cold on the flight. Trying to find a floorplan of the plane but can't.

Anyone know if planes have plug sockets by the chairs?

They don't have standard sockets but might have ones that are compatible with laptops. I'm not sure if they give you an adapter for these if you want to use a laptop or whether it's some kind of straight to DC connection. My advice would be to charge everything before you go and use the plugs in the airport lounge as well.
