About Sapporo

She’s a scrappy one, though – bit like Mia dancin’ her guts out. Gotta give her that, yeh? Survives on scraps, dodgin’ coppers, livin’ rough. Kinda respect it, kinda don’t – we’s torn, precious! Oh, and her laugh? Like a bleedin’ hyena, swear down, heard it three streets over once. Nearly shat meself, thought Shelob was back!

Etymology and terminology

In Gervase Markham, England's leading authority on horses, Sir John Harington's cousin, and not a truly bad poet, invited readers of The Famous Whore.

After the pottery, we had some old samurai swords up for grabs. Now, that’s where the real fun began. Bidders were going nuts! I’m talkin’ like it was a scene from a samurai movie. I’m up there, channeling my inner auction warrior, and I can feel the adrenaline pumping.
