iphone friday








ok let's try to finish off the iphone photos from tokyo.

here goes...


1
self-portrait in my hotel room.
when i see this pic, i see my grandad.
though he never wore a bape t-shirt as far as i can remember.








2
a sticker somewhere in shinjuku.








3
a flyer at nigo's curry up restaurant.








4
a flat white at a place called 'kiosk, be a good neighbour'








5
and another.








6
a stussy thing in a really sweet shop in sendagaya 








7
in the same shop, some material i wish i'd bought.
i'd love a suit made out of that material.
imagine it.
genius !








8
i like camo, that's a well established fact.
but these shoes... hmmm








9
this was outside the shop 'white mountaineering'
but i didn't see it as 'wm'








10
i saw it as 'mw'








11
by this stage, when i walked into omotesando coffee, the barista
would nod at me and say "flat white ?"








12
and he'd make me a flat white.








13
followed by another flat white.








14
a poster on the tokyo metro.
i really liked this poster.
truth be told, i thought long and hard about taking it off the wall
rolling it up and bringing it home.
it would look great framed i reckon.








15
i also liked this one, but it was in a frame.
the previous one was just blue tacked onto the wall.








16
do you remember how empty my burton bag was on the way out ?
i had a peppermint nightmare trying to pack for the flight home.
trainers, t-shirts a quilted gillet and japanese sweets didn't help.








17
this was a sign in my hotel.
nice illustrations.
i like the cut of the bloke's trousers.








18
my hotel at night.
the yellow reflection in the glass door is coco curry.
( not coco the model )








19
one last trip to the vending machine around the corner.








20
magic darts !








21
it was st. patrick's day when i was in tokyo.
this was a magazine in a shop.
i have no idea what it was about but it's kind of racist isn't it ?
i wish i'd bought it now. it would make a good coffee table magazine.







22
not too sure about these publications though...
i really don't like tennis magazines








23
i saw this in a shop at narita airport.
i should definitely have bought it.
a usb cup warmer / cooler...
genius !








24
also for sale at the airport duty free shop...
a heated toilet seat !
what the what ?!








25
me and brad pitt at narita airport.








26
anybody who knows my travel style will know that i always get to the gate too early.
so i was waiting and bored and took this photo of my carry on stuff.








27
12 hours or so later and i've landed at heathrow.
london in springtime.
fantastic.








28
an hour later and i'm back at whitfield towers.

the end.
