This week I finally took some very overdue long service leave. And when I say overdue, I mean the kind of overdue where the leave balance was probably sitting in the system wearing a cardigan, asking if anyone was ever going to collect it. I had grand visions, of course. Rest. Relaxation. Possibly becoming the…

I know. I’ve used this header before … A couple of times actually. It’s the only one that accurately describes the week that we’ve just had. On the night of Monday August 3rd, at 10pm we experienced what could only be described as a plumbing emergency. Our toilet decided it’d had enough of this life…

Today is Wednesday 15th July and I am sitting here waiting for the Power to go off. This will be AusNet second attempt at maintenance work on the power grid. The first time, it was a Tuesday and I had arranged to go to my Fathers for the day. Thing was, due to the wet…

And, we’ve made it to the end of May. It’s been a hell of a ride. We’ve had a month of birthdays, anniversaries, allergic reactions, dental appointments, vet visits, specialist appointments and technical devices being given their last rights before being sent to God. We’ve had freezing cold nights, the inability to sleep, vividly weird…

May. I, in equal parts love and loathe the month of May. I love May because here, in Australia you can see an obvious change in the seasons. It means the Summer / Autumn wardrobe can be put away and the Winter wardrobe gets dusted off and ready to go. It means scarves. It means…

OK…. Today’s blog is just going to have a bit of everything To begin Last week I wrote a very short, very abrupt blog on the subject of spoilers. It wasn’t very long. Not very well thought out and was written mainly out of frustration and annoyance over the fact that human beings still refuse…
