I have another question: In the UK the electrical power supply is 240v and in Japan the supply is 110v. Does this mean all my electrical appliances need to be replaced, or do you guys use a transformer of some kind to get around the problem?

Use a transformer for a favorite expensive item you want to bring. Store or sell the rest and buy new in Japan - you're going to want what they have, anyway!
