I wouldn’t recommend for anyone to get involved in the dangerous life of street racing, but it IS good fun if it’s on a track. Right now I’m treating it like a problem: I’m in the process of quitting, but it’s not something you can just do right away, you know? I’m taking things down …
It really is true: money doesn’t make you happy. However, it can buy things that make you happy. So, in essence, money does help you out in that department. I cannot buy a dinosaur, or a trip to Saturn, and they would make me happy. But I can call up the best glazier services Melbourne has …
When I first started here, business trips sounded like an absolute delight. You get to basically go on holiday, the company pays for it, and it’s not like you’re expected to work 24/7. You do work and business stuff during the day wherever you are, and then you go back to your free hotel at …
Sometimes I wish I could just time travel back to the 1920s. Because then I could use my knowledge of coming world events to make an absolute fortune, perhaps even become the most powerful person on the planet if I play my cards right. I’ll know everything that’s going to happen, from wars to natural …
There seemed to be some disagreement at the club tonight over whether television- in its current form- would exist in the future. Of course, there’s no doubt as to whether television would exist at all…certain shows just seem like they’re never, ever going away. Even if the end happens, I think Week of Our Lives …
In the last week before our soccer finals, our tiny country team was dealt a massive blow. There had been a spate of thefts across the shire from sports clubs. From what we’ve heard, thieves were breaking in overnight and pinching soccer goal nets. Sports netting can be expensive and clearly, someone didn’t want to …
People tend to think of renovations as being purely functional, or that it’s mostly expensive exterior upgrades. Things like adding another bedroom, expanding the bathroom, that sort of thing. The real truth is that form matters just the same as function, and both are important to you and your home. For quick and easy way …
There aren’t many people who’d move house based upon an addiction to chocolate, but you don’t know what it’s like. I don’t know why I keep buying it, and I don’t know why I keep eating it after I’ve bought it, but that’s the way it is. I’m caught in a cycle of destruction. That …
Melbourne is a lovely multicultural city, and this is reflected in the hodgepodge of architecture you will find. Those interested in architecture, and especially the architecture of windows, will find much to see in the many suburbs of Melbourne. If, like me, you are an enthusiast of sash windows, Melbourne is certainly the place to …
I have travelled all over the world designing people’s homes. It is a real privilege being asked to create the space in which people want to spend their lives. From their most intimate moments to their most public ones, the home is the stage on which life is set. I’d like to discuss a recent …
