Well, luckily drinking the good quality Saki meant there was no hangover! I was quite pleased with that!

Mikiko and I met up with Dai-san, and went out to Kashiwa stadium to have a meeting with them. Dai-san’s car was parked in a car park, so he drove us from there to the stadium. On the way out, I heard a strange noise. I found out it was their phones giving an earthquake warning! We pulled over in the carpark to watch it. The pipes running overhead were moving, which was the only sign we had of the earthquake. Not knowing what Mikiko and Dai-san were saying was the hardest part, as I had no idea where the earthquake was, or its intensity. I’m guessing as we were in the car, some of the vibrations were absorbed, and I would have felt more if I was outside.

The meeting at Kashiwa was all quite positive, and they were planning on using the system for Indoor Cricket next week, so I put it in my schedule to ensure I could be there to support them for that.

We went to sushi train for lunch. We ate lots, and it was all fantastic. And the price was unbelievable, so I took a photo of our stack of plates, and the bill. . That’s 2,845 yen for that stack!

Mikiko and I then went to Kachidoke, to drop the tablet and remote off to them. I didn’t know when we would next get there (we were hoping to be there for their games on Saturday) but I wanted to ensure the system was there.

We then went back to Shinagawa to get some things done, and then go to Nishifunabashi. We arrived around 7.30pm, and had a some-what good meeting with them. Only problem is that the decision makers don’t know the business! But it was positive, and the players / umpires / staff all like using the system. We booked in for me to go back next week to install the latest updates (Sportskeep / Datascore / Player Login Screen), and migrate them to Sportskeep 3 (so they use the laptop we bought for them in November).

We had a quick dinner in Nishifunabashi, and then Mikiko and I went back to Shinagawa, arriving home around 11.00. It had been a long day.
