Today at lunch I was wandering up George St towards Martin Place. As I waited to cross the street I noticed, as did ALL the guys walking that way, and in particular the opposite…

My right knee is broken, that's no new news. It was injured back in late February during a Mighty Kites game, back when we were.

This year I changed hair salons from Beecroft to Castle Hill, the reason being that my stylist had left the salon and I wasn't too pleased with the replacement(s). After three…

I've just gone and burnt my feed using feedburner.

Upcoming at 7fifteen this week James Warren will be preaching a sermon entitled Technology, Twitter, TiVo and iJesus.

Today is the last day in the Financial Year. Working in a bank has enough pressures at end of month, so today should be a real corker....

Today on my weekly catchup with Julie we wandered up to the Japan Foundation Gallery inside Chiefly Place to see an exhibition by Andrea Innocent aka innocentgirl called…
