Mum asked me to write down my experiences with having a child, so I did that, and for some reason carried on doing it even after she could no longer read them.

birth giving birth in Tokyo as a foreigner.

year one first year of child rearing

year two second year

year three third year, toilet training.

birth two detailing the birth of the second child

year four first turns 4, second turns 7 months. Eye operation.

year six first goes to school at 6, and second is 3.

Back in 1998 or so, I got quite sick, probably both from an ulcer and my gallbladder stones. I wrote a story about that, which I will move in here.

-Setup consisted of installing an app called "T-リモコン". Unfortunately it is pretty hard to find unless you can type in Japanese. In the end I used the PC browser to find the Apps. (Both Android and IPad).

-To set it all up,
-* plug in the HDMI-Stick and power it on (USB Power).
+Proposed 2008 [[2008_Holiday]]

-GOOD THINGS:
+Proposed 2014 [[2014_Holiday]]
-* Device works well, movie wall to pick media is nice. Shows on both device and TV
+Mum asked me to write down my experiences with having a child, so I did that, and for some reason carried on doing it even after she could no longer read them.
-* Playback works quite well. ~5s or so to start up, but playback in nice and crisp.
-BAD THINGS:
+[[birth]] giving birth in Tokyo as a foreigner.
-* 80% of content is in JAPANESE, and ONLY in JAPANESE. Including movies (hobbit etc), and TV shows (Person of Interest)
+[[year one]] first year of child rearing
-* Content is pretty much the same as other services. Ie, no Comedy shows.
-* Some buffering experienced, but it does recover reasonably.
-I find it quite annoying that they would only have dubbed versions of content, when the easiest is to keep original audio, THEN add localised versions later.
+[[year two]] second year
-I was hoping they would have a bigger collection, including comedy shows since no other services in Japan carries comedy. Including Hikari-TV, Hulu.jp and Sky.
+[[year three]] third year, toilet training.
+[[birth two]] detailing the birth of the second child
+[[year four]] first turns 4, second turns 7 months. Eye operation.
+[[year six]] first goes to school at 6, and second is 3.
