Thought it might be useful to share ways to watch Japanese TV down under. We use an android Tv box (skystreamX) that i purchased thinking that it did a lot more. It quoted that 1000's of channels were available but i found it hard to use and content hard to find. I stumbled across an Ebay ad for a subscription to Japanese iptv streaming from the internet using android Tv boxes. They offered a 24 hour free trial on each of there 4 packages,The first one worked well and gave around 38 channels. quality was as good as regular tv and didnt get any buffering on our 5-10Mbps connection. However we had an issue with my android box and their log in system so it wasnt any good for us. Tried 24 hour trials of the next 2 services they offered "ihome" and "ihome 2". one of them was ok but buffered often and was no playback capabilities. the other had a terrible pictures and very pixelated. Finally tried the final option called "World TV" after a successful trial we purchased a subscription about 9 months ago for $180 US for 12 months. We have 38 free to air channels, Tokyo and Kansai, and 12 Fox channels that have either japanese subtitles or voiceovers. i mostly watch J Sports 1,2,3,4, BS tsuri vision(24hr fishing) and fox discovery,science and history. The kids get into Animax and Disney a bit. Quality is as good as regular tv, and if the interent speed drops away then the picture drops back a level until the speed picks back up. Have only had 1 day so far the system has been down. Shows are usually 20 seconds - 2 minutes delayed, and we have a 5 day playback function. I was after this for a long time before finding what seemed like a real product and not a gimmick. There are a lot of interesting shows on and will definetely be renewing our subscription shortly when it comes around again. I'll search for a link to what i have incase anyone wants to give the trial a go. If anyone is using a different service feel free to share and compare. Trev

Trev Tbh I've never gotten a quote for painting before so wasn't sure what it was worth, but I typically never pay for anything I can do myself...I just add it to the list and keep chipping away at it Cats don't wake up early on public holidays? Yep double demerits

Double double

I'll need a date to confirm as I'm a shift worker, and I'd only be a spectator or help others

Much planned for the weekend?

Yeah on and off. Only have touch ups in living area and ceiling to do. Have been painting lately at night and other stuff during the day. Moving stuff from garage,attic etc to the shed at the moment

Morning... Long weekend for some

Haha, bargain. Could use that loud alarm on the track to psyche out the other drivers

think it's just south of 6061

^^^ Yeah lachy, that's awesome advice for the next time you visit perth!! Hahaha

No problem

Have a mate that always talks about eagle bay brewery, 25ish from busso You got a dirty weekend planned?

Morning Elle, Clancys fish pub is 20 mins from busso. Have heard occys is good but never been there.

It's unisex

45 mins from busso to Margz. Maybe a touch more. Around Margz, I'd avoid cheeky monkey,good food but terrible beer. Same as duckstein, which changed name I think so maybe new beer? Colonial has good beer, unsure of food. But I'd highly recommend Clancys fish pub 1 minute out of dunsborough. Awesome food and they have 1-2 beers from every local brewery from the most of the south west. Heaps and heaps to choose. Haven't tried but heard good reports about bootleg, and bushshack, bud I think bushshack has wild creations with all sorts of fruit etc

Yeah we all know how that turns out

Is your brother gonna be able to handle the vtec yo?

Not a problem, On another note... I googled "sauwa stickers" last week looking for a logo.... Look for the "guy" (I think) with the whipper snipper about 30-40 images down

What sorta car?

Busso or busso/Margz?

I went into the shop on Monday with photos. They said they had to do a dummy run on the small ones as the text might be too small. Bigger ones would be fine. They haven't contacted me back to say there is any problems so hopefully be ready soon

Morning WA

Oh your slowing him down... Makes sense

Must be slow cos Subaru driver?

110" here too. It's a good size for our sized rooms. Almost too big when having to look from edge to edge. Mine took less than 5 minutes to hang
