Cheap surf board rental in Chiba

Just looking for an idea where I can rent a surf board in Chiba (preferably in Onjuku Beach or Ichinomiya Beach) at a cheap price. Thank you!

    @Tomuu is the surfing expert around here - can you weigh in on this one?

    I'd have to look into this to be aware of specific places. What I will say though, is that now the beaches are "open" and the universities soon to break up for the hols, there should be no problem finding places to rent boards, especially in Onjuku and Ichinomiya. As an example though http://flyingsumo.jp/surf-lessons/ has board rental for 4,000 yen a day which seems reasonable to me (and they have English-language info on the site). If you're a beginner or fairly new to surfing, I would choose Onjuku over Ichinomiya. A lot of Japan's pros and experts frequent the Ichinomiya area so it can get quite competitive in the waters around there. Onjuku is much more user friendly (although less reliable for waves).

    @Tomuu Thank you! I guess I'd pick Onjuku Beach then. :)

Summer reading

I know there have been questions in the past about what we're watching, but I'm wondering what you're reading at the moment! I'm looking to get a few new books for summer and I'd love to hear if you have any recent recommendations. If you have any good spots here to get EN language books in person, too, I'd appreciate if you would share those as well!

Database error

Anyone else getting a database error after you log in? So far, it looks like I can still write posts, but I had trouble logging in and after log in my home page looks different to normal with a "database error" message.

Condiments in your fridge?

Just for fun! I was thinking the other day how different the contents of my fridge are to the fridge I grew up with! Just one example, I always have soy sauce in my fridge and usually at least one other unopened bottle in the cupboard. There was never soy sauce in my fridge growing up. And the friends I grew up with don't have soy sauce in their fridges even now. But my Uni friends all have soy sauce in their fridges, because they all lived in Japan for at least a year. I was just wondering what things do you have in your fridge here that you probably wouldn't have in your fridge in your home country had you never lived here.

Moving house process

I've been in my apartment for nearly 7 years. I've got my eye on an apartment one station closer to work. But I forgot what it was like to move in here! It was all a bit traumatic... Have you got some packing tips, suggestions for how to move your household goods, and what to save for last?
