Is there anything more naff than street performers?

So lucky me then that Shizuoka is home to the Street Performer's World Cup. Five day of jugglers, clowns and face painting.

Call me a miserable sod, but the prospect of another four days, each packed with over eight ours of such "entertainment", doesn't fill me with anticipation. In fact having to pick my way past fire juggling Americans on pogo sticks and Eastern European trapeze artists just to get to work doesn't exactly thrill me. Sadly, the whole wackyness of the German tumblers in pink leotards and their hilarious antics is lost on me.

And what is it with diablos and the people that "do" them? I've known two diablo users in my time, and they were both prize wankers.

Bunch of arse. Won't be happy until it's all over and the last tumbler has tumbled onto the bullet train back to the airport.

How about people pretending to be statues? Have you got many of them? I f***ing HATE them.

Anyone who has been down La Ramblas in Barcelona will have seen the "statues" down there, standing on their plinths, only moving when you toss a con into their hats. Doesn't really flick my switch, but the kiddywinks are fascinated by them and the ones I saw gathering round seemed genuinely entertained. Harmless enough.
