One of those weeks where I've had to work hard, we had pigeons invade and nest on the top landing and after they've raised a family, brought what seems like family down to watch their youngsters fly off. The resultant bird crap from this means I had a few late lunches, after cleaning it up.
So we watch NHKworld over lunch. If I'm home early enough, I'll get Ukiyo-e life, a look at a famous wood block print, or if not the main midday news. Today we got back late and we came across a delightful little kids show called Mathematica II.
In tone its sort of like Playskool in that it has that feel of a classic kids show. In this episode I saw a bunch of kids were asked what was bigger, their new basement or the living room. The result was to measure it out with a baseball bat! Not kidding turned out their new basement was 4 and a half baseball bats across.
There were a few things to compare the size of stuff and there was a rock people skit where some cubes of stone wondered who was the biggest out of the three.
Sadly I can find nothing but this clip shot on someone's phone. Which is basically opening credits and the like.
To make up for it here's a link to A Cat's eye View of Japan which is also up on YT. Which I can heartily recommend you watch.
