Quite possibly. Always find the contrast interesting. In many ways Japan is a real nation of hobbyists, and yet there are also those who put so much int their work that there is no time for anything else. Heaven knows what a shock it must be when work finally finishes and there’s nothing to fill all those hours…

Yeah, that’s very true. A long working life of long hours no doubt.

He’s got something on a lanyard in his shirt pocket. Could be spectacles or maybe an identity badge.
Best wishes for Christmas Lee. I was over early enough to avoid Maria Carey Xmas songs this year. Always thankful for small mercies.
Lee says
Yeah, not sure what that was.

“Ew! Why is that old man flashing me his tramp stamp?”
Lee says
Haha, that’s a very different interpretation!
