Hav­ing one of those up and down week­ends is good for the soul. Keeps the blood pump­ing too. Makes you feel alive. And all that. A two-day anger fes­ti­val (fam­ily mat­ters) came to a head ear­lier, and I am glad that order has been restored, and all par­ties involved have been put in their places, and …

I’ve just had one of those rare days where I com­pletely lost my tem­per. How did I lose my tem­per?

I spent this evening at the pool­side (the pool of which has ‘under­wa­ter music’) of the swanky ser­viced apart­ment com­plex called ‘Orchard Park­suites’ because a high-flyer uni-mate was back in town for work and for to meet up with some of her treetop-skimming uni-mates.

Not Paine Reserve, Kingsford/Randwick, Syd­ney. So the kids and their par­ents spoke with Aussie accents, but what the heck, the sun was out and …

Mr Miyagi can catch fly with chop­stick, Mr Miyagi don’t need help with the chicks. But for those who do, here’s an inter­est­ing dat­ing ser­vice called a ‘dat­ing mis­tress’ or a ‘wing woman’. From the Syd­ney Morn­ing Her­ald (Reg­is­tra­tion may be required): Keen to meet women, yet sick of rejec­tion by those who have heard every …

How hot was it today? Blue sky, no clouds, and car uphol­stery hot enough to cure you of piles once and for all. I got a call from the boys ask­ing to go down to the SMU field to kick some footy for a bit, in prepa­ra­tion for Sunday’s long-awaited touch footy game we’ve organ­ised. It’s …
