Jack the Ripper 


At last, the letter from Jack the Ripper is shown to people in Museum in Docklands in London.
This case is the most infamous crime, so even I who is Japanese, have known it.

I think that the Jack was well educated person so that his hand writing is beautiful and sophisticated.
Due to his intelligent, nobody could capture him.
He was completely different from other murders.
Firstly he had strong purpose to change society to better and secondly his action was motivated by some kind of morality.
Finally, he always lest varied messages, for example he sent letters and he took some organs from bodies.

We have never known who was Jack yet.
Did jack live in the East End ?

Chocolat



What I watched at was "Chocolat".
Again I watched this film twice, the first time is about 1 or 2 years ago and the second time is Today.
When I was a child, I did not like Chocolate bar but now I do not dislike and I enjoy it sometime.

Anyway, the film is charming story.
The small chocolaterie which Vianne open in a French village is utterly exotic, the wall are painted with Maya tast and the shop is filled with cocoa from Guatemala.
I am interested in Hot Chocolate with chilli powder which is baced on recipe of Maya civilization.

Crash in Piccadilly Gardens

Bloody hell.
There was terrible violence in Piccadilly Gardens.
As you know, battle was suddenly happened because of technical fault in a big screen which a lot of football fan looked at.

As well as this, huge trash were left everywhere, even in Oxford road which is located not near to Piccadilly Gardens.

I heard several siren of ambulance car in very early morning, because I live near to A&E department at Manchester Royal Infirmary.
I am afraid that someone should be injured there.

One of problems was a technical fault, but I am wonder why the fault was occurred in the most important day for both many rangers fans and Manchester city and why were not prepared spare screens in such case.

As long as I know, there is violence in every football match.
I prefer completely careful game and atmosphere.

Harry Potter


Harry Potter Series are the most popular movie among any generations and any kinds of people in the world.
I watched ‘Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban’ yesterday.
Actually I watched it more than three times so far.
According to a travel guide book of the UK, one of beautiful seen was taken in Scotland, such as Glenfinnan and Glencoe.
I would like to visit there if I have a chance.

In this film, I am interested in three characters beside Haryy.

One is Professor Severus Snake. His speaking is excellent English and very clear. He has something mysteries.

Another is Professor Sibyll Trelauney. Her appearance is very charming, wearing very thick glasses and keeping not tidy heir. She behaves with a little exaggerate and speaks directly without thinking what people feel.

Florence Nightingale's birthday


Today is Florence Nightingale's birthday. Also as you realise today's logo of Google.co.uk home page has an illustrate of Florence nightingale.
So let me say that happy birth day to her!

I love her because she is really wonderful.
I know she used some statistical analyse to find out evidence of effective nursing.
Also she started to educate people to be proper nurse and established education system for nurses.

As long as I know, she was Rational Unitarianism as I am.

LONDON

I am invited to visit London to do some work with a colleague in this summer.
I think the work I have to do will be finished within one day, so I am planning to visit somewhere in London in another day.

Firstly, I really want to pop in "221B Baker Street 1)" and "the Sherlock Holmes Pub 2)". I would like to order something to drink there.

Secondly, the place where I would like to go is "National Portrait Gallery 3)". I am delighted for looking at "The Brontë Sisters" and "Florence Nightingale".

Finally, some parks is good place to go. There are many parks, I will pop in one of them, for example Hyde Park.

Japan Day

In the coming July, my former boss is coming to the UK!
He expects me to arrange some good time in England.
So I have to think and make a plan for him.

I think the places where we should visit are London and Manchester.
In addition, I would like to visit Liverpool because of Japan Day on 19th July.
My former boss would be delighted for visiting the Event there however depending on his schedule actually.

I am interesting in Japanese culture although I used to neglect them when I lived in Japan for long years.
So I would like to see what is Japan day like in Liverpool.

Pride & Prejudice



I watched at a DVD film, this was Pride & Prejudice.
I like a story in 19th century of Victorian era because I am stimulated by clothing and costumes. Also I am particularly interested in people’s manner and behave in the society.

One of my favourite parts is the beginning of the film; it begins romantic melody holding something sad. The seam is followed by a beautiful country house; there are dogs, cows and a dog.

Another is the Bennet family. I enjoy a comical conversation between Mrs Bennet and her five girls.

This is one of Jane Austin’s successful stories. Jane Austin wrote not only it but also Emma, sense and sensibility etc. I think she was a very attractive lady because of her ability. It is clear that her stories are full of character and entertainment.
