Hi all. As you know by now, Sue and myself have split up. The damage is irreversible, but we are trying to keep the shop going together, but im not too sure if it will long term. So we are drastically going to reduce koi stocks, so we can may be work around it. So from Saturday 10 there will be 1/3 to 50 % of all koi in the UK. If we can, we will show you around the Forge as well so you will have 100s if not 1000s of koi to see. Everything is now out of quarantine. If you want to see the Momotaro pond, the water is clearing, but call first to double check before travelling.

      So today finds me leaving Tokyo , to go to the south on the bullet train . I decided . although three and a half hours , it seemed easier and more direct , than messing around getting to and from the airports . After speaking to some one today who flew in the typhoon . it was even a more wise move than i thought !

       I arrived at Takigawa koi farm later than expected .This due to missing a connection , as my bullet train was running late due to the typhoon . Takigawa san , was also working late , moving around koi from a large harvest , many hands make light work , so we all chipped in and within an hour we were leaving for the hotel . As a thank you for helping him , he bought us dinner , which was very nice !  Tomorrow we go to SFF , or Sakai Hiroshima as he is sometimes better known . Really looking forward to this , as not been down here for 15 or so years . No koi today , but saw Mount Fuji , and took a few pics that made me chcukle .

Health and safety is always on my mind , falling cans can cause serious injury , so best be careful !
