I had a brief drama with the taxi driver dropping me off 500+meters away from train station entrance, but despite missing my scheduled train by mere moments I still managed to make it to the Airport in good time for my flight... (curse my rudimentary knowledge of the Japanese language... I meant Shinjuku train station not bus/coach station!)
I then managed to spend all my remaining Yen on loads of sweets and rice cakes etc for everyone back home. mmmm oishii! (adding yet more hand luggage for me to later drag across london!)
12+ hours later, after watching almost five films back to back, I land safe and sound back in London.
My first 30 minutes in the UK went exactly as expected... I was greeted by grey skies, wet weather, a crap transport system and some aggressive bullsh*t beggars!
Awesome! (I'm already wishing I'd never left Japan!)
