She mentioned that, based on previous experience with arranging rereleases like this in the UK, it could be anytime up to 2 years before the CD is available. More news if/when I get it. Howell PS In the meantime, I've just remembered that I still have 2 copies of the "Monkey soundtrack" CD that I ordered from Japan (via www.cdjapan.co.jp) last year. If anyone in the UK would like one of these CDs, please drop me an email at: parryh@hotmail.com The total cost, including posting the CD to you, comes to 16 pounds per CD. ________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. - -------------------------------------------------------------------- + List guidelines: http://www.geocities.com/saiyuuki/guidelines.html + To unsubscribe, send an email to: majordomo@valinor.eldar.org with 'unsubscribe monkey' in the body of your message + Need help?

Apparently, in spite of their divorce, they've remained good friends. As with most celebrity divorces, there's been lots of rumours and malicious stories spread around the Japanese press. Take a look at this article from the "Mainichi Daily News" newspaper - it's all in English: http://mdn.mainichi.co.jp/waiwai/face/0627monkey.html Howell PS Millie helped to arrange all the interviews that Masaaki did last year - in the Australian press, the UK press, a UK magazine, plus his interview for the BBC's "I Love the 70s". If it weren't for Millie, none of these interviews would have taken place. PPS Both their daughters look like they're set to follow in their father's footsteps. They've both performed on stage with dance groups in Tokyo, and are said to be very talented. >I understand Masaaki Sakai has just annouced his divorce. Not spending >enough time with his family my chum said. > >Tim _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. - -------------------------------------------------------------------- + List guidelines: http://www.geocities.com/saiyuuki/guidelines.html + To unsubscribe, send an email to: majordomo@valinor.eldar.org with 'unsubscribe monkey' in the body of your message + Need help?
