Sunburnt and saturated in the same day.

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 14 Dec 2011 | Views [1264]

I am pretty sure I was woken at 1:45am by the sound of rain hitting my roof; hard. Hence, $38 had not transformed my tent into the Millennium Falcon. I had to rise early for once to get the first ferry across to Yamba, ... Read more >

Tears, taxi thieves, transport truants, then tattoos on Tramadol in Thailand.

VIETNAM | Thursday, 16 Dec 2010 | Views [2317]

Leaving a country should never make for interesting reading, unless you have a fetish for missed flights. My obsession with such an activity is bordering on perverse, but I still adhere to the same casual approach to punctuality. Leaving anywhere ... Read more >

Spending in Saigon like it'll save my life.

VIETNAM | Sunday, 5 Dec 2010 | Views [1810] | Comments [2]

Yeah, I brought an expired credit card with me overseas. No worries for the naïve. Move money around like its millions and I can spend dollars like they're Vietnamese Dong. It's good karma keeping the economy going. Before long though, ... Read more >

The four horsemen of the budget apocalypse

THAILAND | Tuesday, 12 Oct 2010 | Views [2522]

The boys night in Melbourne relocated to Asia for nearly a week. It was an inauspicious sign for bank balances, livers, and the price of grain. A trip overseas had been discussed ad nauseam and it took one of us getting married to see it happen. I ... Read more >

The wandering wedding specialist.

AUSTRALIA | Friday, 8 Oct 2010 | Views [1101]

Through a whirlwind of flights and near misses, love and vows, fights and make up kisses, I come out the other side wondering what happened. Not that memory went up in smoke the way it normally does, it was just too much in two weeks ... Read more >

Mother Nature gets all moody and confused

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 5 Oct 2010 | Views [854]

The only way to make continual sunshine seem better is by throwing in the occasional rainy day. I know there is a vengeful deity with a perverse sense of humour who makes those rainy days fall on my days off. That turned out ... Read more >

Frangelico nights

AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 21 Aug 2010 | Views [1493]

As another utopian dry season twilight silences the usual fun and frivolity of communal life in the staff crap shack, I use the rare moments of peace to finally bring this journal up to date. I take another long slurp of my frangelico and ... Read more >

Same same but different.

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 14 Jul 2010 | Views [2098] | Comments [1]

I'm working up a sweat just thinking about what to write. That's not because I'm whipping my brain like a pack horse, it's just a constant by-product of life in Broome. Compared to Hobart, it's like living inside an active volcano. Given that ... Read more >

A civilised ceremony and crazy celebration matches the coupling of colourful characters.

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 19 May 2010 | Views [1347]

Exchanging vows always sounded like a great idea to me if it involved swapping a 'no drinking' vow for a 'no stabbing' vow. When it entailed a life membership to monogamous loving, I often felt the need to reaffirm my 'no stabbing' vow. Like the inside ... Read more >

Alcohol and antiques.

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 18 May 2010 | Views [1031]

Time has come for the winter migration. The chill slid into Hobart like the stranger who steals your seat at the bar, all bright eyes and cheesey smile. The trees decided not to fight the cold and burnt their leaves off in a fiery display of natures' ... Read more >

The cold winds of change.

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 21 Apr 2010 | Views [1230]

I was checking in for my flight from Port Macquarie to Melbourne. The kind lady tagging my luggage assumed that I would happily declare anything illegal or dangerous I was smuggling. I was two hours early for the flight and panting like being ... Read more >

Far too cool to fly on time.

AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 20 Mar 2010 | Views [2405] | Comments [1]

This seasons fashion is idiocy, best expressed through missed flights and further unnecessary expenditure. While the finger of blame could stray slightly towards others, I must accept full responsibility for uncovering more and more unusual ... Read more >

Reliving Roman blood lust.

AUSTRALIA | Wednesday, 10 Mar 2010 | Views [2610]

Would it be wrong for this anti pugilist to admit he loves watching the toughest dudes on the planet pummel the bejesus out of each other? As it further confirms the contradictory nature of my personality, and my tendency to spend every penny I earn, ... Read more >

Slippery in Sydney

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 4 Mar 2010 | Views [1004]

I need a holiday after all this talk about commitment, and marriage and every other aspect of human interactions that is scarier than watching 'Wolf Creek'. Its open wallet season and not one, not two, but three interstate trips are forcing ... Read more >

2010; The year of the wedding. Awesome!

AUSTRALIA | Tuesday, 2 Mar 2010 | Views [1113] | Video

I'd forgotten what silence sounded like. It's an empty sound, like one hand clapping. Unfortunately, no transcendental insights accompanied such a realisation, although I think some trees might have fallen in the forest without me being there to ... Read more >

Witness to a fairy tale.

AUSTRALIA | Saturday, 13 Feb 2010 | Views [1860]

Who wants to get married? Anyone? I'm throwing myself away. I'm in need of a bit of a fix up, and I have even less to offer financially now, other than my own lack of self-sufficiency. My liver feels 20 years older than the rest of my body, ... Read more >

A big booby, er.. boozy Bucks night

AUSTRALIA | Thursday, 11 Feb 2010 | Views [2677]

Who wants money? Anyone? I'm throwing it away. Out it goes with my mobile phone and all my phone numbers. And a fair portion of my dignity too. Yep, that's what Bucks parties are all about apparently. Being the first I had ... Read more >

Television is the next stage for my dribble.

AUSTRALIA | Friday, 5 Feb 2010 | Views [1196] | Comments [1]

One minute a nobody; a TV star the next. After my brush with fame is televised this Sunday morning, (Insiders ABC 9am) I'll be a nobody again. Unless some careful editing manages to portray me as perhaps, weatherman potential. I fear it may portray ... Read more >

Is Peter Pan practising what he preaches?

AUSTRALIA | Sunday, 20 Dec 2009 | Views [1057] | Comments [1]

Returning to Melbourne is always a scary prospect for me. Cougars don't stalk me in the front yard and the wardrobe is boogey man free the last time I checked. Grey skies that look like they've been finger painted by an obsessive compulsive ... Read more >
