Kai received an an enormous birthday packet from the DeSousa family in Cobham which he ripped open while scoffing strawberry pancake cake in bed this morning. It contained all kinds of wonderful goodies to appeal to a seven-year old boy, but pride of place went to a Nintendo DS game featuring Astro Boy. Wow!
The good burghers of Cobham clearly have their finger firmly on the pulse of Japanese culture! The Astro Boy manga and anime are to Japan what Mickey Mouse was to the USA and their creator, Osamu Tezuka, is revered as the founding father of the genre.

I was well impressed and Kai was over the moon!
Cobham! Cred-capital of the home counties!
