Our last night at Amenohi To Yuyake and a meal to remember. We don't often have fancy pants meals, but this Italian inspired Japanese hotel really did something special.

We've made it to Shikotsu-ko in Hokkaido. On route we drove past a Book-off where i picked up some cracking records. Whilst I'm sure there's no records around this lake, I will dig em if there is!
Hello Sapporo... the biggest city on Japan's most northern island, Hakaido. Yuri has been here for a few days and I'll be seeing her later. More important things first.. record shopping. That's right. I said it.
Things are beginning to feel a bit biblical....
It's 5.30am and I can not sleep. Come with me as I explore Nagoya at this time. 🎧 Scott 4
This evening I visited Diva. I've been meaning to visit for years! It features in my favourite YouTube video. Japanese wrestler Asuka paid a surprise visit and leads to one of the most authentic expression of childlike fandom ever. Pure joy 😊 youtu.be/GifKGjft3lU?...
Just a handful of my pick ups from today's roaming around Nagoya. Pinky promise I'm taking a little more easy tomorrow... 🤞
It's in the middle of the afternoon here in Nagoya and I've been wondering around, watching live music, catching up with relatives and... record shopping. I'll be sure to share my spoils later 🌞
I've never been so intimidated by a cup of coffee before. Glitch cafe in Nagoya.
Always nice when a @brighterdayvinyl.bsky.social delivery turns up. Many many many thanks again Joel and hope you have a great break!
Delighted with today’s delivery from Joel @brighterdayvinyl.bsky.social Impeccable service as always and a freebie thrown in. 10/10 👌
Thanks again to Joel @brighterdayvinyl.bsky.social for another excellent delivery. Hope you have a great time in Japan.
What a lovely way to end a week off work with my monthly Sunday Service haul from @brighterdayvinyl.bsky.social Cheers Joel & may the vinyl gods be good to you in Japan. #vinylcollection
Midnight curry at CoCo Ichibanya... 😋
At the airport waiting for our flight, which has finally come around. One of those "memories" pop up on my phone to say i graduated three years ago today. A handful of years before this photo that I was drinking every day in an stagnant role in the music industry (and 140kg!). Proper proud 🌞
About a dozen or so more to do. May the vinyl gods bless those at Loughton Post Office tomorrow.... 😬
Alas I did not get this collection. They are destined to another shop. A little disappointed about this one, but the whole process was really lovely and I wish the shop who got them all the very best!
Brighter Day Record Shop @brighterdayvinyl.bsky.social · 2w agoThe singles were very nice. I upper my offer and they're waiting for someone to view tomorrow. Before making a decision on what new home these records are going too. I've done all I can ...and i feel positive.
Last day of client work before I set off for my summer break. The shirt may suggest I've one foot out of the door....
I've snuck out of Brighter Day HQ before the Sunday Service tonight to run some errands before heading off to Nagoya early next week. I have bought shorts.... and sun screen... i don't think I'll require anything else 🌞😩
I have one of the most expensive records I've ever had in the Sunday Service tomorrow. I'm giving it a spin now and it sounds absolutely phenomenal. I tell you now, if it sells....
