Be the Silver Lining
I remember it clearly. Public transport and the monotonous Monday morning. Yeah I was feeling OK. I stepped on to a packed train. When I say packed, I mean packed. Not the kind of packed that you see on those Japanese videos where people are employed to shove you in like a … [Read more...]
The mind games continue
The stand-offs between myself and my second daughter are a dime a dozen a day. Every now and then I actually manage to win one. Friday night was another one of those times. It had been a long week. I texted Amanda and let her know that I was shattered after a 3.5 hour … [Read more...]

Welcome to Australia – The dumb country
I was speaking to my sister-in-law today. She has not been that well lately and one of the things that the doctor told her was to quit smoking. This is obviously a 'no-brainer'. You only have to look at a cigarette packet or watch TV for half an hour these days to work that … [Read more...]
Time to fly!
It's an amazing thing, to gamble. To risk everything in the face of trying for the highest prize. I told you I have my fears. I told you I'm letting go of them. And now... Jesus Christ I'm flying. There are perfect moments in life. Sometimes they come at times when you are … [Read more...]
The monkey on my shoulder
