  1. @themarkcarroll cheers mate, I'm pretty pleased. Back in a management role for the first time since EM*P.
  2. @themarkcarroll same stables, better saddle: content marketing manager.
  3. First day in a new job/Last day in the office for 20 days. New iPad in my bag. At two friends' wedding tomorrow. Tokyo on Sunday. #happydays
  4. @hostelworld I think it's because it's split between room types due to availability. No drama, I'll tell them you sent me.
  5. @hostelworld thanks again, I've fired @khaosankabuki an email (it won't let me book 3 nights on your site). Seems like the perfect fit.
  6. @hostelworld Excellent, thanks for your suggestion.
  7. In case anyone was confused by us Briton's moaning … courtesy of Carling Black Label. #bestofbritish twitter.com/TrailofAnts/st…
  8. @jeremyhead can't wait! Apparently, it's what's known as a "babymoon".
  9. @sarahzakzouk agreed, but I'm after the non-commercial recommendations of the travel community first!
  10. I'm flying into Tokyo on Sunday, does anyone have a good budget accommodation tip? Pref a sociable hostel, near the Tsukiji Fish Market.
  11. Major delays again on the District and Circle Lines. Why? Because they can't find the driver. #truestory
  12. @edgyjunecleaver thank you Laura; that reminds me, I should find my own rhythm and update that blog! Have a great day.
  13. The more I use it, the more I think that Lonely Planet's navigation bar is genius. #kudos to their techies.
  14. @RunawayJuno ooooh, what were the highlights for you in Kyushu? It's my dream trip; all happened a bit last minute, but I can't wait.
  15. @RunawayJuno all I know is I fly into Tokyo, and fly out three weeks later. I've got a railpass so will check out a few places.
  16. @NinaWanders sounds devine! Thanks for sharing Nina.
  17. Just booked a trip to Japan! Heading there in 12 days, any advice on where to visit, or — more importantly — what to eat?
  18. @veyk Nice that its audience of 10 years ago gets to mature with it: +brand loyalty is one natural reward. Leaves a gap in the market, too.
  19. @rtwflights I think he's both, too. But not for Lonely Planet. I am more than happy to be proved wrong.
