フッド・クリス http://linktr.ee/hoodcp Author of novels and non-fiction books on symbols in Japan, shinkansen, the JAL123 plane crash, and books related to Frankie Goes To Hollywood.

Looking forward to giving 4 talks today at the Japan-Scotland Community Cultural Festival today. Going to be covering a wide range of topics. I just hope that my voice holds up as I've got a cold and it's been a while since I last did 4 talks in a day.

Today I visited Lockerbie. Given my work on JAL123, it's strange that I've never been before. I got here too late to visit the museums, but at least I could see and pay my respects at two memorials. Strangely, while there I got the news of the passing of one of my teachers from 1988. RIP

After following a podcast that uses the book, I got a copy during a visit to Göteborg. And what a book. This copy is so beautifully presented. For someone learning Swedish it seems perfect. Looking forward to reading it (and relistening to the relevant podcast episodes).
