LostInTranslation

I'm on a voyage of self-discovery, but I seem to be going round in circles - could you give me some directions?

Footy!

Ahh, what a fine day; the sun was shining, the kids were laughing, the hangover was nt so bad... and I played footy! It's been a while since I played footy properly, hence I was crap! Usually, what I lack in talent, I make up for in enthusiasm... however, a karaoke-until-5am induced hangover robbed me of my enthusiasm too!!

Never mind.

Met lots of friendly new folk though. Damned if I can remember there names, think there was a Miho, a Dan, a Norio, a Marco, a Miki, a Maki, a Louis, a Yuko..? Pretty international, even a couple of Argentinians thrown into the mix. And of course everyone could speak Japanese - except me! But they were nice enough to tell me my Japanese is good, bless 'em!

Mixed footy is a wee bit scary though, especially when you're shit at footy and there's a big Argentinian guy running at you! But I did manage to get my fair share of dirty tackles in there (my speciality), and floored one guy (he was skinny). Hmm, must practice...

But all is not lost, my post-footy down-the-pub skills are top-notch!
