Yes it was a typo - and nice to see humour survives here in TV

I'm sorry and apologise if it was taken the wrong way or misunderstood in any way.

Not as long as some old-timers. But, I got here as soon as I could. However, in a previous life ...

18 years - keep thinking about leaving but every year a new crop comes down from the farms and I hang around thinking "ahh one more year then" lol

How long have you guys been here and could a westerner really be that patient to spend the rest of his or her days here?

Isn't 'here' for you Japan now adays ... or is that just wishful thinking?

If enough of us wish it, it might come true
