My Suica has been vandalised!
It transpires this has a leuco rewritable coating, so special products (like this 1 day season) are literally lasered onto the front (including a map!) and overwritten/removed once used.
Extremely extra but very cool. I've never seen one of these in the wild before.

@eefi Yes, definitely. It's only ~ £8 to start with.
Many people keep telling me the passes aren't good value, so I can only assume they're doing significantly fewer journeys

@hugh Yes, that's very cool indeed! But in my case, the ticket machines didn't clean my IC Card after expiration. I had to ask Metro staff to clean it for me.
@twi Yeah, I'm interested to see how well the removal works.

And a study in brand guidelines and iconography for the World Expo 70, held in Osaka that year - my favourite
Which other event needs iconography for a Monorail?

Note that the UK pagoda (presence) was typically tasteful and muted; not trying too hard to be conspicuous but yet prominent enough to stand out from the crowd. /s
It appears the obsession with flags is deep rooted.

Brief interlude to declare that I've found the best bar in Osaka. It was absolutely rammed yesterday; people just kept coming!
Open very late, serves good (local) beer, fried chicken and gyoza. What's not to like?
Everyone coming through the door gets a personal welcome from the chef

@hugh@social.crablab.uk it’s only a UK pavilion if it has a massive Union Jack in it, otherwise it’s just a sparkling collection of firms representing the UK or something like that
