They don’t make anything like they used to. You used to be able to walk down to the local milk bar and get the best hard candy – you could break your teeth on those things! That’s what I call quality. These days all the sweets and lollies they make cost twice as much and […]
Tough guy in disguise
They say you should never judge a book by its cover but come on, let’s face it, with most people what you see is what you get. Take me for instance, I’m as big as a house and tough as nails. And it doesn’t take much to prove it. Recently me and the missus had […]
All I Ask is for Clean Web Design
So, while everyone’s obsessed with that show about cakes, I seem to be the only person actually getting things done. It’s all well and good to watch a show about baking and get ideas, but it’s making me seriously regret leaving the TV on in the kitche. All the bakers just stop and watch it, […]
Strange Paths in Life
It’s well known that pursuing a degree in the humanities or the arts can lead you to unexpected, (and sadly, sometimes unglamourous) careers. For instance, my mate Sarah got her masters in philosophy and now she’s a civil servant, and Jem who got his BA in archaeology turned out to be a network security officer. […]
Grand Farewell Funeral Service
My uncle was what a lot of people called a free spirit. He was one of those people that captivated the attention of everyone around her. His aura was so vibrant, it was almost impossible to take your eyes off her. Unfortunately my uncle had been fighting cancer, which he had neglected to tell us for […]
Expanding my skills as a GP
I had never have considered dry needling courses until three years ago. I’d just gotten out of uni and was a year into my practice as a general practitioner. The work was a good balance of challenging and rewarding and after a six-year degree I felt that I was done with studying for a while. […]
Damsel Never in Distress at Docklands Ice Skating
She scored her first breakneck goal to win the grand final at the luxurious Docklands ice skating venue, and the crowd went wild! It was quite the feat for the only girl in the team to nab the cup for the Happy Feet hockey team, which was made up of super macho men with skates […]
And that’s a wrap
My rev head brother is such a doofus that it literally hurts me, deep down in my soul. I know he’s a good kid (he’s my brother, we share the same DNA, how could he not be?) but damn sometimes I just wonder what’s he’s doing with his life. I mean, I know for a fact […]
It’s not winter without ice
There’s something serene about ice, don’t you think? It has a kind of mystical, calming effect to it where you can look at it and just lose yourself in it’s beauty. Ice doesn’t play tricks or mind games, it just is what it is and doesn’t apologise for it. It’s the beauty of winter, the […]
Behold my girlfriend in all her beauty
I realised it’s a big move but I feel like my girlfriend is the one for me and that we’ll be happy together eventually. This week I’m going to take her out to a fancy dinner and subtly put the idea forward of us getting engaged to see how she reacts. If it were up […]
