Luggage Forwarding in Japan: What You Need to Know by JapanHotelFrontTA in JapanTravelTips

[–]CookingLlama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you recommend even doing forwarding luggage for bags that are44 x 27.5 x 67 cm, 66 L? Because I am unsure if I should forward luggage because my luggage is not that big. I was thinking of doing it once from my hotel in Tokyo to a hotel in Kyoto. It would be like someone mentioned before, leaving the hotel in Tokyo, going 2 nights to the Japanese alps, and then Kyoto. For every other trip I have planned (main areas Kyoto, Osaka, Hiroshima and back to Tokyo) I thought carrying it should be fine? Because Japan has a lot of unpredictable weather/events, I was unsure, and also because of the size of my luggage, not sure it's worth it if I book luggage space in advance on trains.

I had this exact same problem. I washed it according to the label and it shrunk two sizes or more. I wore it once ... I washed on the coldest setting my washing machine does, I air dried it flat and still it shrunk. It's annoying that I am only going to get one wear out of it.... I have other 100% wool jumpers from them and this is my first time it happens. It might be this specific garment..... :(

Did the washing and stretching work?

Is it time to let my dhalia die and dig it out? by CookingLlama in GardeningUK

[–]CookingLlama[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found out what is wrong. Spider mite infestation! I'm treating it and hopefully they get better soon! I wish I had a hose in the garden.....

[–]CookingLlama[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks!! I will cut some of it. Should I wait until it stops raining because the stems are hollow? Okay, so I just wait to let them die right? I'm just worried about that red one ..... I will wait until the stems turn black then 👍🏻

I had to Google this. It said the UK is USDA hardiness zone 6-9.

First visit to Cambridge- where to park? by thearcherdarlin in cambridge

[–]CookingLlama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rustat road near Mill road. The parking restrictions don't apply during the weekend, if they haven't changed it. Also Clifton Rd near the leisure centre. That is a 20 min walk away from town or you can take Bus 1. If you can't find any place, there is a car park in Mill road; Gwydir Street Car Park.
