As the Berlin mercury hit 33 centigrade, we went to play guerilla badminton in the minty-coolest place in town: down in the Kottbusser Tor U-bahn station.
Talking of girls, I'd like to signal a new episode of the Shift Zine's Girls on the Street (http://www.shift.jp.org/101/st/) series. Being Shift, bless 'em, it's a month late and the girls are all wearing winter coats, and it's not so much "girls on the street" as "girls who come into our cafe, the Cafe Soso in Sapporo". But nevertheless this month's bunch is a good one. Wired magazine has a Japanese Schoolgirl Watch (http://wired.com/wired/archive/13.06/play.html?pg=4) as a regular element in their futurology, but, although the idea is sensible and legitimate, the column is sadly full of manga cliches; I'd much rather ask the Soso girls "What are you wearing?"
