Chatting with Chuckles Podcast

It's the second episode of my 50 Shades of Rambling On series. In this episode I talk about how I became a coffee snob, my love for the band Marillion, and in the diary reading get a bit down about life. Not much seems to have changed there then!  Oh, and I also talk a little about The Thursday Murder Club books, and the fact I prefer Joyce to Elizabeth!  Welcome to my ramblings on!  If you would like to find out more, support or follow you can always head to me Buy Me A Coffee page. There's lots to enjoy there, including my latest artwork. Now where's the coffee? www.buymeacoffee.com/spookytreeG [https://www.buymeacoffee.com/spookytreeG] #Marillion #RichardOsman #Coffee

Today's is as an re-intro really, and reading and adding further comments about the 50 Shades of Rambling on blog.

It's not everyday you see a man with a pig in a pram! Well, on a social-distancing meet up in the park that's exactly what we saw! Oh, and a man in a thong!  We continue to delve into the wacky world of Japan and Japanese culture as we enter the final hurdle of our self-isolating spell. It's been emotional!

Have a break, have a kitkat. So the old advert once said! In todays pod I take a tasting session, trying out the cheesecake flavoured Kitkat! I delve into why the Japanese love said Kitkat so much and also take a look out of the window!  Can I have another Kitkat please?

In the first of a special set of podcast episodes I describe my journey to Japan in a Covid19 world!  * Why did I come here? (It's not a holiday if you're wondering!)  * What hoops did I have to jump through to get here.  * What was the journey like and  * Will I attempt to eat Cheese Cake flavoured Kitkats! (actually that will be in the next episode! There aren't many chuckles in this episode (promise their will be) but it's an important introduction on how travel has changed and what you can expect!
