It's rather nicer if you are fit, not fat, but at the end of the Chang it's not about what you look like or what you do or where you're from.

You DID make a good point about the main difference between Japs and us. We'll probably be style mongers who make more regular trips and the Jap lads will probably be infrequent visitors who don't mind spilling their spare change about, because it's a 'one off' or rare occurance.
