Pirate-Eye Reprisal

Keith is a champion- I received a new Graniph t-shirt in the post today- it is super-Kawai!


In other news, I had to send this letter to the insurer for the Japan tour today and when I re-read it I thought it was rather funny:

To whom it may concern

On December 7th while in Japan, I was preparing to leave my hotel room when I felt something fall into my eye. Assuming that it would eventually fall out by itself, I proceeded to try and ignore it. However, the irritant caused my eye to become extremely watery, red and sore. It remained in my eye all day, and it became very swollen overnight. After approximately 36 hours with the irritant in my eye, it was decided that Eri-Chan would accompany me to an ophthalmologist. The tomato-sauce-smelling ophthalmologist removed what he believed to be a piece of bark from my eye, and fortunately, I experienced instant relief and required no further treatment.

Yours Sincerely
