Aliens, Jeremy Clarkson, and the Japanese

Story location: Home / Blog /
24/Aug/2005

All in the space of half an hour this morning:

  • I was on train, listening to the Planet Japan podcast. This is an interesting and quirky show about Japanese life and customs, by two Americans who have lived in Japan for a few years. I don't have an iPod or any other mp3 player so I was listening on minidisc.
  • The bloke sitting next to me on the train was reading a book by Jeremy Clarkson and was obviously finding it very funny. He would visibly shake with laughter every now and again.
  • I arrived in work, to be told that UFOs had been seen flying over Birmingham last night
