Fay 1,677 Posted September 12, 2007 Today a little potpourri. I started the day at Sadogatake beya, came out of the heya and it was raining buckets. My umbrella got leaky, I got wet, but its not so bad as it cooled down a lot - at least this evening. Only bouts for the lower divisions today, Kotokasuga, Kotoshogiku, Kotomitsuki and Kotooshu only trained some tachiai and discussed how to beat their opponents. Sadogatake Oyakata (In love...) (In love...) (In love...) was there for the lower divisions training and left for the KK. Kotokasuga was in an extremely good mood, he was joking the whole time with his tsukebito Kotoyamaguchi. Astonishing enough for me, he won his bout against Mokonami today ;-). Back in the Kokugikan I snapped some lower divisions Aozora Danyu our friend Hoshikaze, who lost today surprisingly My adoptee Kihonoumi, who had a close fight against former Juryo Daraido today. Kihonoumi lost but looked good. My second adoptee Kotomisen had one more great bout today (against Koshinryu). He looks extremely well this basho and got a big applause today. :-D Kotoyamaguchi is doing better this basho. He had 8 straight MK since his entry but he looked quite well in keiko today and he is 1-1. Still hope for a KK this time. Kyokutenho Orora Ryukai Seiro Shinyu, Takamisakaris Tsukebito The best bout of the day was small Sugita against big Fukuoka from Hakkaku Beya. The japanese man who is sitting always behind me and I disagreed for the first time. He clapped for Fukuoka, I for Sugita and litte Sugita could beat Fukuoka. Sugita was fast, full of energy and he is a great technician. ;-) ;-) Very nice performance this time from my Takanohana favourite Takakiho. He told me that he goes to the gym quite often and that he concentrates to reach Makushita level. I hope he can go on like this.

Washuyama 641 Posted September 12, 2007 Fay, do you need a tsukebito??? What I wouldn't give just to be able to follow you around for a day. Truly envious... ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fay 1,677 Posted September 12, 2007 Fay, do you need a tsukebito??? What I wouldn't give just to be able to follow you around for a day. Truly envious... ;-) Yessss, my knee hurts. When I have to sit some days more on the floor I will need someone who carries me around in a wheelchair. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XiaoTan 93 Posted September 12, 2007 If you provide the wheelchair - I can certainly do that on days 13 and 14 when I'm there. I would like to take such close-up pictures myself - so that would be my chance! ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
