TUNNEL VISION

On location for the TV Aichi programme Sanji No Tsubo down the new Sakara Dori Subway line!
The new section of line is set to open in April, and before the trains run thru' it, we went for a walk thru' the tunnels dug about 8m under parts of eastern Nagoya!
Love the way the tunnels just disappeared into the distance! The echo was great too, after giving a shout we could still hear ourselves 8 seconds later.
At the end of each programme, I have to write a comical poem and do a quick sketch, the poem translates to "Walking down the tunnel (Japanese; toneru..) is tiring, it makes you want to sleep" (toneru)
Japanese puns,...not funny in English at all!
