glad to see you back at it! btw pudding ryu is so much more practical, you can even do it in street clothes.

Very little training; very little internet; - - you poor thing! Bless!

My training has been OK - - apart from problems with left foot, right knee, left wrist and right elbow.
Just returned from 5-day Summer Seminar [Iaido] - - therefore everything aches - or hurts - depending on bit of body in question.
Fab seminar - - just too old [in the joints] to appreciate all of it........ today, anyway.
Keep the faith!

ALI;
Have not seen any input from you in a wee while.

You OK?...... struck dumb?.......... or simply on hols?

Thanks for the rep. Besides I was tired of fighting a Koala for position in that tree..........for a herbivore their awful bitey!

Agreed........ but does that make me a bad person?
Doing and teaching kendo brings out the 'evil' in me. I am 'sneaky', too. How about you?
Fast is good - - but sneaky+evil is better........

you wicked wicked tease you!!!!

(but I'm now saving frantically for the airfare to take you up on your offer)
;-D

Oh man Alison!

now you have gone and written stuff about your toes, how am I ever gonna think straight again

Hi Alison, three years ago you posted a question about the authorship of a ukiyo-e painting labeled "shirakashiko". I came across your forum post while searching for the same information. As far as I know this is a painting from the 1800's by Hokusai and depicts a shirabyoshi dancer. Hopefully you got the info you wanted long before this, but if not... voila!

Stupid "must spread rep" requirement. Nice zinger at Mr. Bible thumper!

Wassup, Ali! Everything is right at Australia? Guess You won´t come back soon to Brazil. Will you lost the World Championship here?
