Caught by the fuzz

Yes we was…for dumping a bit of wood and metal at the local dumping spot near our old place. It took no less than 8 policemen to arrest us for this heinous crime. Pu and I were put into seperate patrol cars and interviewed seperately about our involvement in the apparent crime of the century ( well seemingly in the eyes of Kanagawa police anyway). We were then photographed next to our rubbish on some scales, outside our old appartment building and pointing to the spot where we had dumped the offending items. We were then bailed out by a friend. The whole process took about 5 hours. Have to report back to the police with my birth certificate(!?) ready to pay some hefty fine. OK, I know we were technically breaking the law but come on – I think we have some seriously bored policemen in Yokohama. Most of the crime is corporate in Japan anyway so our friendly neighbourhood police must jump at the chance for a bit of action. Still seething with rancour…
