Ryu and Ryoki

The lads

On Thursday we had a treat - Wendy, Ryu and Ryoki from Yokohama came over to watch the Fellsman cross the Ribblehead Viaduct and then came over to us for tea.  They are here as Wendy is from Skipton and it is the big Japanese to English translators' conference this weekend - taking place in York.  This is the third time Tom, Ryu and Ryoki have met up and this time it was like they were old friends.  They came back to our place and played really nicely with the wooden train set.  A common language as usual not needed when it comes to play (although Ryoki's English is getting better and better and Ryu does understand everything if not say anything).

Anyway we had a lovely evening, don't think Tom got to bed until almost 9pm - and on a school day too!
