+gargontar The initial starting point is expensive because you will need a minimum of the gi and hakama, plus a bokken, and then an iaito soon after. Just the kit works out to be around £500 or £600 usually. I've been practicing iaido at aikido of London for nearly 7 years now.

I saw your video with Taylor. You spoke about final cut pro crashing and losing your project. This happens to me too but Final Cut Pro is actually very good at keeping back ups and constantly saving. You need to go into final cut pros back up folder and have a look at it. You may find your missing video.

I did hybrid kenjutsu (also known as Nihontodo) for about 6 months now, and couldn't really get used to moving with the chokken (fiberglass practice sword). But my individual kihon techniques were up to bat though. Even so, it was really interesting to learn about the principles behind moving and striking efficiently though; the sport being rooted in the warring period where swordsmen could not afford to spend unnecessary time and effort on a single enemy.

I love that about Asian vegetarian... some dishes replicate the look, texture and taste of meat that I feel "meat satisfied". My go-to was assorted gluten when I was craving "meat"... or the bags of bbq "towfu" (that's Chinese though) - a savoury beef jerky kind of snack... Chinese & Japanese culture do the best vegetarian in my opinion.

I really admire how adventurous you are with food. I am the proverbial meat and potatoes kind of guy. Or in Japan, the yakisoba and yakitori guy! One time, probably around 1992, I went to a seafood restaurant with friends. Not that I wanted to cause I cannot stand fish but hey, in Japan, what restaurant is NOT a seafood one! Everyone happily ordered fish dishes...and then they got to me. "I am so sorry, but do you have any meat dishes. I cannot eat fish." The waitress was taken aback. Really taken aback. She couldn't believe that I didn't eat fish. Did I say she was taken aback? REALLY taken aback. She went to the kitchen to ask the chef if he could make something inhumanly not fishy for the "gaijin". I was a bit shocked when the chef himself came to our table. He told my Japanese host that he needed to meet the "human being who inexplicably cannot eat fish". I would say I was embarrassed, but I thought it was hilarious. Good to see that it seems that the Japanese have gotten over their seafood prejudice. P..S. - A very good Japanese friend owned a bar that I patronized all the time with my wife. He loved to pull out the vilest looking seafood dish, dark, dark things stuffed in glass jars, to see if he could make my wife gag. He never did. Me? I almost vomited just looking at the jars!
