Korean barbecue...that's the stuff. I needs me some sweet barbecued meat, complete with those special sauces. Then maybe we can go out for ice-cream later, though if I don't feel like ice-cream that I'm just going to go for bubble tea. Yep, that's me i ...
Office Life, So Strange and Foreign!
This whole Olympic anthem competition might still be going on, but I personally think that I can do better. It's always struck me as odd that individual cities don't have anthems. Like...do people just not take the time to write them? There are loads of s ...
Teen Fatigue Gets Real
One of my son’s good friends - let’s call him M - has just been diagnosed with chronic fatigue - not what you want when you’re about to start your first year of university! According to his dad, who I ran into at the chemist today, it seems to be a spin-o ...
Timber Doors Are in Vogue…Now
Apparently, our door is just not good enough. And if it's now the door, then it's the windows, and if it's not the windows, it's the bathroom, and then the kitchen, the garden, and so on and so forth until the universe implodes. And even then, Ian will fi ...

You’d be surprised by how much legal jargon is involved in setting up a lemur sanctuary, even if it’s just the sanctuary…moving. As in, we’re moving to a new place. Yep, the Lemur Sanctuary is saved! Honestly, I think the Keymore location is what was drag ...
My amazing life thanks to the beauty salon
I’m married to a wealthy stockbroker, my darling Kyle, who is my love and life. His well paying job also means that I can spend my days relaxing, rather than work all the time like most people are forced to do. But don’t get me wrong, I’m not a slacker. I ...
