Fay 1,676 Posted November 23, 2005 (edited) After surfing in this forum for a few days I think, I should do my introduction. I'm from Cologne, germany. I started watching sumo during my studies loving to see Takanohana and Kotonowaka fighting. There was a quite long break because I had no opportunity to watch Eurosport in TV. Well since 1 year I'm back again and Kotonowaka is still there (Applauding...) . Now I become more and more enthusiastic about the sport although all my friends and colleages declare me for being a little bit crazy. But I can handle that (Laughing...) There are few rikishi I don't like so much but my favourite is still Kotonowaka - and all the men from sadogatake and I like Asashoryu, Ama, Kyokushuzan ... (I seem to have a heart for the mongolian fighters too (I was stupid...) ) Well, I enjoy this forum very much and I wish everybody a very good time!!!

Kashunowaka 269 Posted November 23, 2005 Welcome, Fay! (Clapping wildly...) In Swedish, your hometown is always referred to with its original name. Cologne always makes me think of the perfume ... I haven't been to K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bishonohana 0 Posted January 2, 2006 Welcome Fay! (I am not worthy...) Even though I'm replying to a post over a month old! No one is OLD here... We are all "age less." Besides, it's not the age, it's the quality of those ages, right?? (In jonokuchi...) (In a state of confusion...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
