Yes day
Today West Australians go to the polls to vote for or against daylight saving. It’s a beautiful morning. The sky is blue, there’s no wind. It’s tee-shirt weather. You don’t get mornings like this in summer. Or at least you ...
Fire Tweets
I’m new to Twitter and so if this sounds a little evangelical, a little newly converted, my apologies. I’ve been following the fires in Victoria via my twitter feed, getting updates from 774melbourne and CFA. And I really feel connected. ...
Keep Cott Beautiful
Seems the Town of Cottesloe read my post about the Michael Jackson litter campaign and decided to update their signage. Hope it works although I will miss having a giggle at the old posters. The weather this Christmas break has been beautiful. H...

photo credit: madiko83 I was listening to the radio today and I heard a woman talking about what she’s doing this Friday night. She’s cooking Chinese food, dressing up in her cheongsam, and inviting a few friends around to watch the ope...
Sign me up for Dim Sum
Here’s an interesting statistic from this month’s Walkley magazine… Tom Jellett writes “Some time about 2025 but possible as soon as 2015, China will take over from the United States as the world’s largest economy.”...
