It's cold and it's dark, and as I huddle up to a cup of coffee, here's a little something from the land of Nod.

Two quick tricks. One's a classic, the other a grip-variant balance combo. With added music in my ears that you can't hear - just in case you wondered what the ending was about. :-)

Another Slip Grip Special combo variant for #6. Anyone would think it's my favourite trick. :-) Predictable, me? Yeah, okay, guilty as charged.

What with the autumn coming on, and the light starting to consider its options with respect to fading, I thought I'd do a week of tricks. Mostly just to keep getting a bit of daily exercise. Here are the first five:

Nice to be able to listen to some strong England batting today. Meanwhile, in the lunch break, thought I'd bettr hop on the old kendama for my daily exercise.

That's really cool.

To make an olympic sport we fist would need to come up with a consistent rules for competition. Maybe just freestyle.

I spotted Yusuke Ito playing kendama in the closing ceremony of the Tokyo Olympics!  How fantastic. I wonder if one day it might be... even a demonstration sport? 😃

Here are a couple of contact-y lines from the garden.               
Weather being distinctly variable of late. Cat on wall is unimpressed.

Today is been 11 years since I bought my first kendama, possibly 13 years since I played with one for the first time.

Something from a couple of weeks ago, when the weather was between extremes. A drop into Bat, instead of a lift...
