Hi all, hope your all well.

Japanese sweets are awesome, I have just been devouring a load of them this past hour... Pocky's are my favorite, the creamy Strawberry one's especially. I like them because the edible biscuit sticks  resemble wood, as a result it feels kinda cool biting into them.  The purple chewing gum dumplings are sick and evil. One of the three in the packets tastes like some kinda deadly experimental strain of Sherbet. You never know what you are going to get with them so it's kinda exciting just sitting on the sofa and trying stuff out.;

I went shopping for games yesterday, and came back with Wario Ware Inc on the Gamecube.: /

Anyway, I have just finished watching Gomarrah. Gritty gangsta sh*t, with good direction, Love Italians - 4/5 -  I highly recommended to anyone that likes gangsta flicks.

I believe so. They've just started showing those mikado adverts here in the UK, and they seem to be rebranded pocky.
They're both made by glico too.

Did you get all that stuff from around the trocadero area? I think there's supposed to be a shop near there that sells all sorts of japanese candy imports, though i've never been there myself.
I find pocky to be overrated. I tried a couple of flavours last year and it was alright, but nothing amazing. The packaging is pretty cute though.

It's a shame they covered up banksy's work. He creates amazing pieces.

I guess it's similar, but the biscuit stick is different. Pocky's pown Mikado's.

Ha that is quite amusing they have been selling those things for over 10 years here, they used to be in my schools vending machine before vending machines got banned from schools.

I checked out Bankey's website, some really great work on there, shame they covered that one up. He is using stencils to make those is he not?

Also checked out that preacher man video, guess i am missing the context here. Is it a TV show of some kind? The name Ashcroft does ring some bells but that is probably an other Ashcroft.

Pocky is awesome. There is a massive Korean population in northern Jersey so a lot of Asian markets have popped up, and this is my favorite thing to buy there, next to various other gummies and weird sweets they have.

Also, that movie Gomorrah looks really good and I need to check it out soon.

I like Banksy's stuff, it usually has a great bit of social commentary, like you said, attached to it. There's been a few fake Banksy's floating about though, hasn't there?

Always loved Banksy, and where the hell did you get all that stuff?

Yeah, people are faking them on property they own in the hope they can inflate the price,. but the experts have wised up to it..  One of his works, a  genuine work, put a million pounds on the price of a derelict pub in Liverpool not long ago.

I liked Tomato Pretz, and my SO liked those little mochi things.

I saw the CCTV graffiti somewhere else before.  Brilliant work.
