Over the weekend I was on TV in Akita for doing Genki English, then today I was on TV in Ehime talking about, of all things, kimono!

The thing is I’m not actually in Ehime, I’m back in Fukuoka. Which is quite strange as I was here a few weeks ago and it really seemed Christmassy, with all the lights and stuff. Then last week in Akita it was like the middle of winter being so cold! ( Even though everyone was laughing at me for wearing my big coat saying “It’s not February, you know!” ) . Now back in Fukuoka it’s actually quite warm, with just a light sweater, which is like travelling back in time.

I am supposed to be recording the other Adults’ Songs this week, but my voice still isn’t back to normal., so I’m taking the chance to work on the site. The first thing to be jazzed up is the Parents’ English page. I did it before as a cool quiz type thing which I thought was great to learn from. But the reaction at workshops has been lukewarm to say the least.! So I jazzed it up and made all the phrases available at once. Have a look!
