  1. Not had the best week and having to go to the 5th fucking page to find this thread didn't help. Anyway, as always, a big brekky helped lift the mood. As close to perfection as you want. 2 perfectly fried eggs, 1 urutan Balinese sausage (ordered 2 more), wilted spinach (poncy name, great taste), fried mushrooms, oven roasted tomatoes, 3 rashers bacon, sourdough toast (ordered 2 more) and Balinese sambel. 11/10 with bonus point for the setting. All for the princely sum of 4 pounds and 68 of your English pence or whatever the fuck the Tories are making you use now. Perfection. Any disparaging comments can be shoved firmly up Mook's arse along with Darwin's spleen.
  2. Big Breakfast at Das Bistro, Bali. Ukranian, Noggie, Belrussian nor British brekkies can hold a candle to this beast. Some of the efforts on this thread make me weep with joy that the UK has fucked off from the EU! 2 bratwurst, 6 rashers of Bacon (sent back to crisp up a bit), a haufen Bratkartoffeln, twelvty pan roasted cherry tomatoes and a mound of well cooked fresh mushrooms (none of those canned ones favoured by nonces) and two perfectly fried eggs with runny yolks. As much toasted bread as you can shake a stick at (ignoring the brown bread is for sex offenders jibe, give ya head a wobble) The price...£2.50 with a cappuccino. Ze Germans do it better.
  3. heya mate, sorry for the late reply just come back from Sicily. Yea, as unrighteous says the JR pass depends on how much travel you planning on doing. If you just stayin in Tokyo don't get it but if you going to Osaka bear in mind that a one way shinkansen (bullet train) ticket will cost you 87 quid, so for a round trip you looking at 174. So if you planning on goin down to Osaka then the JR pass is prolly worth it as you can use it on the Yamanote line in Tokyo to get around the main sections of Tokyo as well. Kyoto is close to Osaka and has a lot of nice cultural places like kiyomizu-dera and kinkakuji but it is tourist central and can be too crowded to really enjoy at times so I enjoyed Nara more which has just as much cultural value but is a bit more chilled. Different strokes fo different folks though eh. You don't fancy sleeping in a coffin sized box surrounded by salarymen fapping away to censored porn!? You freak! haha don't blame you, not one of the best experiences in Japan! Keep having a look for yourself about what you wanna do but let me know if you got any questions about anything in particular. I was more into the culture, nature and food than going to clubs and bangin strange. Then again if you can't speak Japanese gaspanic and heartland just outside Roppongi Hills can be easy places to pick up as the gals there are just lookin for gaijinn. Heartland also has its own heartland beer a good European style lager. Let me know if you got any questions.
  4. Some dope beats on here but not much from Japan or Germany. Check out Nujabes, died recently, mainly jazz hip hop beats some instrumental some with American rappers. Did a lot of collab with Fat Jon. I have been listening this all day. Love the upright bass keeping the flow. can someone let me know how to embed.
  5. Hey mate, Lived in Tokyo for three years and have been back on and off since leaving. What kind of things are you looking to do there? The best place to watch footy is footnik just around the back of Ebisu station. Normally some good lads in there and a Japanese LFC fanclub which are a good laugh. It can be expensive depending on what you do but if you are on a budget you can easily feed yourself at supermarkets and convience marts as unrighteous says. A full box of sushi will only set you back about 4 pounds and should fill you up. Also yakitori (chicken on skewers) and gyudon (beef on rice) are nice cheap eats. Beer is pretty expensive so maybe stick to haposhu which is like beer but avoids the tax that has to be paid on beer... Again it depends on what you want to do but I would disagree with unrighteous about going out in Roppongi as it is really seedy and full of Americans and is the only place I have witnessed street fighting in Japan. But if you are up for a bit of fun and hook up action I'm sure you can find it in Roppongi. Just down the road is Roppongi hills which is worth a visit. If you are thinking about travelling about Japan I would look into getting a JR rail pass which will allow to use JR trains for a set amount of time depending on how long you will be there. Osaka definitely has more character that Tokyo and the people are warmer. Tokyo is more like London and Osaka a bit like Liverpool. However if you are just staying in Tokyo I wouldn't get a JR rail pass as there are so many other rail lines that you can use rather than JR that would be cheaper than getting a pass. Regarding staying anywhere love hotels are a good option because you can get hammered and just check in for the night rather than a whole day. Get into a capsule hotel as well which are cheap but like you are in a coffin in the close proximity of lots of other men listening to the high pitch squeals of Japanese girls getting banged on the TVs in their boxes. Whatever floats your boat. Let me know if you want to see cultural stuff, where you are going and how long you are there and I'll try and help you out some more.
  6. Get the fuck in! According to red banjo my fluency in Japanese decrees me as the winner! Tit reppage please! Can also speak German fluently and a bit of French and Spanish. Still working on the English though. Chicken Licken - you need to add 'n' to the end of hanasemase. おっぱいの写真見たいよ!
  7. Best ones I've heard. Park ji sung comes over to take a throw in during a lull in the crowd and one young kid shouts out, oi, chuck us a pie in the fat there lad. class. When Tevez was still playing for the scum - Oi, Tevez go and stick the kettle on you ugly cunt. Against Juventus ages ago when Nedved went down looking for a cheap free kick. Some fat man stood up and screams Fuck off you 50p a pint goggle eyed diving twat. Priceless
  8. Just got this e-mail from a Croatian friend who is a mad Hajduk fan (made sure his team in England is Liverpool though). The celebration of the centenary is pretty special. Imagine the bitters if we had have tried anything like that! Anyway here is what he sent me. Yo Matt, What's up? When I saw this I thought of Wood's love for Liverpool :) The Liverpool fans are famous for their love of the club, but in Split people live FOR the club. The celebration the fans organised will hardly be repeated by any fans in the future.. Barcelona, Marseille, Man Utd, Milan or Madrid. They really set something up that will be hard to knock down. The whole city was decorated in white, buses had on their displays 100 years Hajduk Split, the entire city there lived for that moment. At midnight 13.2. they lit fireworks from each block, it all started from world famous walls of Dubrovnk and it included putting a flag on the cross of Split's cathedral. Anyway, I had a look and picked up few galleries and videos that will be turned into history. Please make sure to show this to your dad! Best regards to you and your parents, send them my greetings! Enjoy!

Cheers
  9. Heya mate, I grew up in Frankfurt so know it reasonably well. Flying into Hahn while cheap is not the thing to do. Don't know how they can call it Frankfurt anything as you are looking at about a 1.5-2 hour bus ride to Frankfurt central. Frankfurt Main airport is, as someone else mentioned, 30 min from the centre of town but Hahn isn't. Someone pointed out the redlight district is close to the Hauptbahnhof (main train station). It is called Kaiserstrasse but I wouldn't reccomend it to be honest. Really seedy place and a lot of druggies down by the station. If you are looking for a good time out on the razz Sachsenhausen isn't bad. It is close to the river and on one side you have mueseums and such (if you are interested in that) and on the other you have a small village of pubs. Literally every building in this place is a pub so you can just mosey around. Other than there the area around Hauptwache is the place to go during the day time as the main shopping street (the zeil) is located there. If you have time have a walk up the Zeilgalarie, big shopping centre on your left a little after Kaufhof I think, because there are pretty good views of Frankfurt from the top. If you need anymore info let me know!
  10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Wi8F92m8r0One One of the best ones I saw while I was in Japan. For the thin macho man in you!
  11. Cheers for the info lads. I'll have a look around for them.
  12. Great find! Some really funny stuff in that! Some touchy subjects there as well though! Any idea how to see the other roasts in full? I did a search and it seems like there is a pamela anderson one and an emit smith one but only in 5 minute segments. How did you find the full length programme like the hasselhof one?
  13. Thanks alot for the efforts guys. Those are the ones I found. I was looking more for a large picture of just the banner without all the background stuff. If that makes sense? I'll keep searching! Thanks again though.
  14. Heya all, I have just been searching the net for some propaganda images from WW1/2, spanish civil war, communist propaganda etc... to put up in the history classroom to stimulate some interest in the students. Obviously I would like to include some strong liverpool imagery in there too! I have searched the internet, RAWK (forgive me) and this site but can't find any decent images. I have found a few I could use on kitster's page but I am looking a good quality image of Siempre es possible and success has many fathers (obviously not the one that sky has recently doctored). Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers
  15. Heya lads, I coach football here in Japan with a French/Moroccan who is an agent. He has worked closley in the past with Zidane's agent and knows a lot of people, such as van buyten, hamit altintop and some Moroccans who play in Ligue 1 and Fellatio at Everton is a mate of his family. Anyway the upshot is, he talked to Chamakh a few days ago to see what was happening. He says the Chamakh is pretty pissed off with how Wenger treated him last year as Chamakh tried his best to get a move to Arsenal then Wenger decided not to get him. My mate reckons that he is more likely to move to us than to go to Arsenal because of how he was treated the last time. I've never seen Chamakh play but he reckoned that he is a shit hot header and hold up man. If we changed our system to play him up front next to Torres he reckoned Nando would score even more goals from his knockdowns. Anyway thought you might want to know the word from the land of the rising, son. He also confirmed* that Zidane was in fact up for a move to Liverpool when Houllier was still manager and was looking at houses in Wallasey and Mold. *he did not confirm any of that. I'll ask him next time though as he still meets zidane sometimes.
  16. Sorry if this has been already covered lads but is gerrard carrying an injury? He is strolling around the park as if he is saving himself for something and is constantly making the wrong decision. Also any thoughts about Mash's celebrations. Rang a bit hollow to me if all the reports about him wanting way are true!
  17. Does anyone really think that Torres would leave if we didn't finish in the top 4 and get ino the champions league? That's what the article seems to be putting forward as a reason for him leaving. He has stated how many times that he is happy here and feels that Liverpool is now his home. He never got into the Champions League with Athleti and stayed incredibly loyal to them. He strikes me as an extremely loyal player and these reports can probably be dismissed out of hand. Oooops game's back on.
  18. Werd. Quick translation of what the guy is saying. Oi! You, what did you say!? I'm not an object of curiousity. something something that the Japanese missus couldn't even understand. What the fuck are you doing!? Who are you? I'll kill you! Someone says somethings. EH!? YOU!? Say that again! Say it again! Ahhhhh...how fucking stupid are you!? I'm not ....??? i'm Japanese Anny Road what's with the Jap hating? There are some crazy tv programmes over here though they are well funny...sometimes. Best one recently was when they hooked 4 celebrities up to heart monitors and tried to get thir pulses over 150 as much as possible by doing shocking things to them. The one who's pulse went over 150 the most in the given time was designated "King of Chicken" They had people cleaning windows and when there was so much soap on the window you couldn't see out they changed the window cleaner to a fine girl in a bikini who started grinding the window. The guys heart rate shot through the roof then 2 ladies entered the room and started going "errrr what perv. Look at him staring. He makes me feel well uneasy." He pulse went right down. Reading that it sounds a bit shit but it was well funny. honest. Loads of other stuff that you wouldn't really get away with on Sky. Hard gay in the park with kids springs to mind. Check it out on youtube. Been living here for 2 years now and it is a really good place to be. Safe and everything you could want. The girls in the skimpy clothes go down and treat as well as the foreigner factor where you are always of interest! haha From the land of the rising, son!
  19. Andy Hunter - Burning desire for first club trophy is driving Fernando Torres to more goals for Liverpool | Football | The Guardian Shortly before kick-off at Stamford Bridge tomorrow Fernando Torres will lower his haunches and stare impassively at the ranks of blue ahead. He performs the "crouching Torres" act in front of thousands every week but ask the Spaniard why and a man comfortable to open up on fatherhood, family and life in the public eye recoils. "I don't know why I started to do it," he says. "But I like to see the other end and the people in the stand behind the goal. I always do it before the games. I like to see the other players with the keeper. I try to see the goal and try to think where the ball is going." Torres sounds like a Premier League serial killer, placing his victims inside an imaginary frame before the attack. His strike-rate does take the breath away. In 93 appearances for Liverpool since his club record transfer from Atlético Madrid the ball has gone where Torres envisaged it would 58 times. A hat-trick against Hull City last Saturday took his league total to 46 in 64 games, keeping him on course to reach his half-century quicker than any player in Liverpool's top-flight history. Roger Hunt heads the list with 50 in 78 league matches and other illustrious predecessors – Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler and Michael Owen – required 84, 88 and 98 games respectively. Not for the first time Rafael Benítez was asked whether Torres was the finest striker in the world after his merciless torment of Hull. The Liverpool manager offered his stock-in-trade reply. "He is one of the best but he can still improve if he wants to." Benítez 's challenge is typical of his paternal approach to the 25-year-old. Last month the Liverpool manager demanded his compatriot cease complaining to referees about opposition defenders, regardless of the four black eyes Torres had received. Unusually the rebuke was issued in public. Equally strange for a superstar, the striker admitted his elder was right. Torres accepted the need to learn, is now the leading goalscorer in the Premier League's most prolific team and was last night anointed September's player of the month. Torres accepts the challenges at Liverpool because he identifies with them. "I am really relaxed here," says the Spain international. "I couldn't do anything in Madrid when I was there. Madrid is a big city and I wasn't playing for the strongest team, so 80% of the people there are Real fans and it was hard for me just to go for a walk or go to a restaurant or the cinema because people do not have the same respect there that they do here for players. "Normally I stayed at home but sometimes, if I went out with friends, it was really difficult. Here in Liverpool I can do almost everything I want to do. I can walk in the park or to Albert Dock. The people recognise you but they have a lot of respect for a player, so the quality of life is the main thing for me. One of the reasons I chose to come to Liverpool was because of the mentality of the club. It's a working club and a working city. I don't know why but I feel like one of the people here. They recognise me and wish me luck but in Spain they surround you and you can't do anything. I think they're happy with me here." A sense of belonging is essential to a player who resisted lucrative moves abroad for several years to commit to his boyhood team, Atlético, and cannot imagine playing for another Spanish club. He shares the sentiment with his wife, Olalla, who insisted she give birth to their first child in her home region of Galicia this summer. Even 12-week-old Nora, though born in Santiago de Compostela, reflects her father's connection to Liverpool. "My baby will be growing up in Liverpool, so we have another Scouser," he says. "It is a really nice time in my life. Iam enjoying it. I can even sleep no problem because she is really nice. It was difficult the first month. You are aware of everything, worried about everything, but it is not a problem. It is really nice to live this experience and at the same time focus on football." If Nora reflects Torres's personal serenity, his professional comfort owes much to a character from the opposite end of the human scale. He is Carles Puyol, the hirsute defender who appears to have taken his reputation for running through brick walls for Barcelona too literally. Adoration, respect, family, talent and wealth: Torres seems to have it all but the man who ended Spain's 44-year wait for international success at Euro 2008 has still to win a major honour at club level. That intense frustration is sated by the example of Puyol, who last season captained Pep Guardiola's mesmerising side to the historic treble of Champions League, La Liga and Copa del Rey. "I spoke to Carles about this," says Torres, "and he said that he was 23 or 24 and hadn't won a single trophy at Barcelona but now he has plenty of them. Puyol told me to be patient. He said that you areat a massive club and you will win trophies eventually. I don't know if it will be soon but, if you have patience and you keep thinking that you can do it, then itwill definitely arrive. We have a bigsquad, a strong squad and we know that when the first trophy comes we can win plenty of trophies. "It is so important for me to get my first club medal with Liverpool but I am young, I am just 25. I have won top honours with Spain now and, yes, there is a desperation to win a trophy for the fans at Liverpool. Three years without a trophy is too much for Liverpool and especially the Premier League [last won in First Division days in 1990] it is far too long for this club. "We have to improve and try to win the league, the Champions League or maybe a cup because to go another season and have four years without a trophy would be a massive blow for Liverpool. After winning the European Championship with Spain I know exactly how it feels to win a major trophy and I know that, if we can win at Liverpool, it will feel the same or even better than it did with Spain." Torres was injured when Liverpool halted Chelsea's 86-game unbeaten home league record almost exactly one year ago. That victory announced Benítez 's team as serious players in the title race and, when he assumes the squat position at Stamford Bridge, there will be no Petr Cech, suspended due to his dismissal at Wigan last weekend, in Torres' line of vision. The Liverpool striker is aiming to add to his tally of five goals in six appearances against Chelsea. "We have won our last six games and we will arrive at Stamford Bridge with a lot of confidence," said Torres, speaking before that confidence took a serious jolt with the 2-0 defeat by Fiorentina in the Champions League on Tuesday. "If we can beat Chelsea away, then we know we can beat any team in England and in Europe. We need to win these games to be stronger." Classy as ever. His goal scoring record is absolutely phenomenal. Amazing to think that he should be the fastest ever Liverpool player to hit 50 goals when you consider the wealth of striking talent we have had over the years. Hats off to the man and may it continue for many years to come. Viva Torres.
  20. He's a fucking boss keeper and we love him a lot you know damn well that he'll save every shot He's big and he's spanish and he's not got much hair He might not be scouse but we just don't care ayyyyyyyyyyyy Pepe Reina to the tune of Macarena obligatory youtube link - youtube / watch?v=Uv5zKd1rqcM newbie status doesn't allow me to post direct link but I'm sure you know the song!
