After a fairly swift yet resoundingly pricey visit to a Harley Street Doctor, it seems that my muscular injury is rather a lot less serious than initially anticipated. In fact, though I found it almost impossible to walk on Wed/Thurs, on Fri I was more or less able to limp about, and today I've managed…
January was shaping up to be all fun and lovely – I'd signed up for Tai Chi and Kickboxing classes, I've got a new choir to go check out on Monday night, and I'll be moving house in mid Feb. All happy, smiley, and moving in the right direction. Naturally there's always things that aren't…
Well there's something I wasn't intending to get excited about today – I was just having a quick skim over my website stats, and it turns out that I am the number 1 Google match for “Save Ferris t-shirt” ! OK, it only seems to be in Australian Google, but still, I'm impressed ! OK,…
Sorry about the somewhat irrelevant title to this post – I just got it in my inbox as one of those relentless tide of spam messages. Just makes you wonder what these marketers perceive as a woman's idea of a good time… Bronchitis landmark ? ANYWAY, New Year's Eve, eh ? I've got to say,…
Tonight a bunch of us went out for Charlie's birthday, and it was lotsa fun – great company, good atmosphere, and overall a good laugh. The thing that piqued my interest though was the restaurant that we went to – The Texas Embassy just near Trafalgar Square. Actually it could have been nearer something else,…
Evening trendsetters ! Well there we go – I've had another Typically British Experience!! On Boxing Day (am still curious as to the origins of this expression – I thought that somehow being up on this half of the world would make it instantly clear and obvious, but as yet I'm predictably none the wiser)…
It just occurred to me the other day – before I left Adelaide, Mat and I spent a fair amount of time cooking up/researching a story for me to tell Brits when they invariably asked what it is I'm doing here. The only weird part is that so far, nobody's really asked in a way…
Well that was fun ! My first Christmas away from home. I was going to say “it's the little differences”, but let's face it – the differences were pretty bloody substantial. For starters, I didn't wake up feeling seedy on the floor in Jono & Julia's living room. There ends a slightly less than glorious…
Only a couple of days to go until the sweaty bloke in the red outfit attempts mass-scale home invasion. It occurred to me th'other day that I didn't get around to sending any Christmas cards this year… or indeed any Christmas emails ! It's unusually slack of me, because typically when I say I can't…
At least it's a story from home that doesn't involve sharks: Man 'sledges' faulty car A man in Adelaide's northern suburbs has taken frustration with his car to the extreme in scenes reminiscent of an episode of the classic comedy Fawlty Towers. Police were called to an address at Salisbury Heights after reports of a…
