The Simpsons are going to (have just been to) Japan! And they’re here to tell you about what they did on their holidays – to discuss sustainable Japanese craft techniques, heated toilet seats, and a proliferation of cheap disposable plastic. Here are some of our key findings:

You can find William Morris paper cups in the 100Yen store.
A good loquat is hard to find.
Kasia wants to meet everyone’s siblings.
