Is walking for health a big thing up in Kanto too?

I see lots of old folk decked out in tracksuits on my way to work. There's a decent size park just down the road with people walking around it until late at night. Seems like the latest boom.

Neighborhood watch is a big thing too, huh? I got asked to translate 10 pages worth of docs concerning how cops in the States do their patrols. People are worried about the rise in arson, especially the type done just for kicks.

Fruitcake swimming pool walking is real big. It clogs the pool with butt-ugly folks in packs roaming endlessly in circles. Arrrrg.

Interesting to read this posting.

There is in place a similar "patrol" in towns and cities in NZ too, called "neighbourhood watch", but they definately dont wear special hats, just carry baseball bats to subdue the criminals into submission.

This is my first reply to a posting on this forum, I`m a kiwi, with Japanese connections, so can relate to the postings which I find interesting on the forum.
