I was thrilled to attend the launch of Wales and Japan 2025. First Minister Morgan’s ‘Kimigayo (Japanese national anthem)’ was fantastic! Looking forward to strengthening the relations between 🏴&🇯🇵 throughout the year.

On September 14, the largest yokai event I have ever worked on will begin. The location is Kyoto's Samurai movie theme park, Toei Movie Village in Kyoto.

Painter, engraver and illustrator John Martin was born in Northumberland today in 1789.
His painting "The Bard" (c.1817), based on Thomas Gray's poem, depicts Wales' last bard defiantly raising a fist against Edward I's destruction of Welsh culture.

Just uploaded my reading of E. F. Crabtree's story "The Difference" on #YouTube. It's an interesting twist on Japan's #Geisha and #Maiko culture. Please check it out.

Periodic reminder to check to see if your acquaintances have been possessed by using Kitsune no Mado 狐の窓 "Fox Window"
Bend your fingers as shown and look through the hole. This will eliminate any magic and you will see a person's true form (human or fox-disguised-as-human)

"Ld. Byron dined here yesterday, and we found him entirely charming. In all his movements there is the grace of a cat (I hope you find small cats graceful) and it really is difficult to think of him as deliberately wicked."

"Our neighborhood is not a theme park": In response to mounting frustration from locals, tourists will no longer be able to enter private alleys in Kyoto's geisha district from around April. jtim.es/3v6ZwAE
