		<description>Well firstly, I apologise if a comment on my post has caused offence. 

In no way do I mean to disrespect or badmouth things on my blog (well unless something deserves it of course!). I try to keep a balanced view of things, but remember that I am accounting my own experience not general opinion. However, I do tend to let slip phrases and words that are a little less than cordial. Using the term &#039;buggers&#039; here isn&#039;t meant to be the same as saying &#039;those little buggers&#039; as referring to a group of badly behaved kids, its merely a some pet slang for &#039;things&#039; or &#039;objects&#039;, but I do understand your point. I do say sorry for my lack of respect in saying &quot;which host hundreds of the little buggers&quot;.

That being said, this isn&#039;t a professional blog. Please, take my writing with a grain of salt people!</description>

		<description>Your descriptions of Naruko was fairly accurate, but for those of us who love and collect the kokeshi dolls, for which Naruko is famous, I resent the comment that these &quot;buggers&quot; were everywhere. These dolls have a very significant meaning in Japanese culture and much history is attached to them. 
The people who make and collect them are delightful, and as collectors, (we are British/American) collecting them has been an amazing experience.
I would be very happy to teach you about them if you like.
