  1. San is a Japanese honorific, adding san after the person's name is a mark of respect. Other honorifics: sensei- teacher, senshu -athlete, sama denotes even more respect than san. Just a few examples edit: added a missed out word
  2. Tetsuko san is 89 years young an indomitable and intelligent person with a show that has run for 48 years. She is very impressive
  3. Well deserved rest time especially after having whisked himself to Canada and back to Japan as well
  4. Thank you for enlightening people on cultural differences. This is useful to know so as to demonstrate appropriate politeness when visiting another country. Living in UK, it is fairly common for children of friends to refer to older people with whom they have a familiar relationship to refer to them as Auntie or Uncle. Calling someone Mr or Mrs Surname would be too formal, calling by given name too casual. The Aunties/ Uncle is acknowledgement of kinship via their own parents, however, it would not be suitable to call someone by this if one did know them, as formal greeting it should then be Title Surname
  5. A wonderful way for the students to showcase their progress and for their parents and loved ones to see them perform. Hope all goes well and everyone enjoys themselves
  6. You are most welcome. Thank you for confirming that it arrived
  7. Hi There Admins and Mods Happy Birthday Sent you a little present Looking forward to another wonderful year following Yuzu with satellite friends A thousand thanks for continuing to give us all a safe place to orbit around Pxx Please check that the payment came through OK. Thx
  8. Tetsudo san So lovely the way she arranged herself to show off her beautiful dress and practised waving the GIFT flag and then remembered that there was a present to gift to Yuzu. The greeting scene with Yuzu was like a Disney Prince film, both Yuzu sama and Tetsudo san looked immaculate, then the warm smiles.
  9. Yuzu takes suffering for his art to another level. Dearest Yuzu, please take care of you precious self.
  10. Yuzu's essay from first year in Junior high, translated into English The Essay title would make a great title for a future ice show ' A New Step Forward '
  11. Being able to buy Yuzu merchandise is a lovely new experience. In the past lots of items either were from ice shows, these were not Yuzu exclusive shows or the goods did not ship internationally or having to buy via third party - on line auction/ shopping sites. The merchandise has been thoughtfully designed and well made and the photobooks are really beautiful. Notification from A!smart that the Gift book and newspaper has shipped, even with the crazy postage and customs charges it will be lovely when it arrives. There are many posts on twt showing the cover and people giving descriptions about how gorgeous the photos are. Hopefully the parcel will arrive next week
  12. So pleased that all of your order arrived after a long wait, you are lucky not to have customs charges, they are quite steep here in UK The blanket is really snuggly and soft, just the right size for keeping knees and toes warm lying on sofa. It is really pretty too.
