We played just two games of mahjong during August, on two consecutive evenings at Neil’s house in Miyazaki, Kyushu. The results were good for Jaime, okay for David, not so great for Neil or Ray. In spite of the fact that the 3PMG Cock’s-Eye Mahjong Club had never met so [Read more…]
The aim of this website is to serve as a hub for all my websites and to talk about my online and offline activites. It’s a personal resource site, a diary and photo album and a record of what I’m up to online and offline.
Friday evening mahjong has been cancelled for the duration of the World Cup. The last game of mahjong was played on Friday 4th June. Ray was in town and joined us for the game. He did well enough, despite a Chombo in the second game, gaining sixteen points and playing [Read more…]

On Friday 2nd April we were able to have two mahjong tables in action at Kodama mahjong parlour with seven people playing. Noda, David and Jaime were joined by Kenyon, who made his 2010 debut. Tonight was also Ladies Night, with Hatsue-san and Aimi-san in attendance. The seventh player was Nobu who [Read more…]
Last Friday evening Noda played mahjong like a zombie. He failed to win a single hand in the first game and was stuck with his Yakitori on the table. In negative figures in the second game, and caught out by David’s Chinrootoo Ron in the third, Noda just kept coming [Read more…]
