The conspiracy continues...

My earlier plan to post an entry directly into blogger using the flickr URL`s has gone the way of my other plans...Kawasaki BOE has seen fit to block the screen that allows me to write in blogger, whilst the internet cafe I`m now in won`t let me use their hard-drive as a go-between...thus you have this sporadic, piecemeal and wholly unsatisfactory account of the holiday.

So anyway, this gentleman was spotted in Asakusa. At the end of his leash is a corn on the cob, which he was taking for walkies, occassionally bending down to stroke it. Shortly after taking this photo, my fascination was suddenly replaced by guilt at being so morbidly fascinated by someone with mental problems. The guilt abated however when we saw him again in Shibuya, with a friend, also with an edible pet. I now believe him to be some kind of performance artist. The chances of finding, in a place the size of Tokyo, two madmen taking a corn-on-the-cob for a walk on the same day are too ridiculously huge to be a coincidence.
