Turtle in Osaka, Japan

Yesterday my ear wasn't too good so I went round the corner to the red cross hospital.
I wasn't expecting to be seen there and then, just enquiring.
Anyway, the doctors and nurses made such a fuss over me. I was seen in casualty (for an ear ache!) and even though I didn't have any money on me they saw me and gave me ear drops anyway! Sweet!
Today I was on a mission to buy a bike. It makes sense seeing as I can still claim my tube money even though I can cycle to work everyday.
New bikes here cost from 50 quid but I heard you could get a re-condo one from 25 quid.
Adam told me roughly where to go. After 30minutes of wondering around I was getting no-where, but hello! Osaka International House!!! Surely they can help. And they did, TRY!
A Japanese woman with a strong new York accent helped me. However, she was more interested in "cockry" accents! I spent over an hour there, and she didn't really tell me much!
So on the way home I find this place Adam told me about. I enquire inside as regards to a bike. The guy spoke very good engrish and told me all their bikes where crap!!???!! He then gave me engrish directions for a better shop with many bikes!
This lead me walking for 30 minutes whilst finding nothing.
I then find a bike shop but only new bikes. I ask in there about cheaper bikes. The lady gets a ruler out and draws me a map! Weird, but very nice of here.
She tells me it is very far. It is!
After another 30mins of walking, I find this place. A bike shop with second hand bikes!
I try to haggle but didn't manage it. Still I got a bike with a lock, a basket, lights and new tyres for 30 quid. Not bad. And I have kinda like a number plate which bikes need here!
Me and Patrick have just been to a resturant where we fried our own beef, cool.
Really tired now, but tomorrow is my first day off!
All I have to do is open a bank account, provide Nova Hq with my bank details, join a gym, do my washing and relax!
Blend!
