When I originally wrote this article for Australia and New Zealand magazine, it was highly topical. No prizes for guessing it appeared in their November issue then. Today it seems about three months out of date, but I like to think of it as being nine months ahead of its time. Remember, remember… When I [...]Post from: Life in AustraliaFireworks in Australia: An Australia & New Zealand Magazine Article

Well, yesterdays sing-along-a-Rolf went down a real storm! I have been inundated with thousands of emails from all around the world, thanking me for bringing families together and for encouraging them to singing merrily on high.

….”It IS who you think, but instead driven by……..”
The more observant of you would have noticed something strange about Santa’s reindeer in yesterday’s post about Christmas house lights.

Since moving to Australia I have stopped reading daily newspapers. I was beginning to bore with the papers in the UK just before I emigrated, so I really couldn’t see the point of immersing myself daily in Australian news when I got here.
But I do like to check the online news here in Australia, just [...]

A Climbing Cane Toad' Surely Not!

I was emptying the rubbish the other night and as I turned to go back into the house, and I noticed an intruder sitting on the window sill.
It was dark, but from its shadow it looked like just another cane toad. So my immediate thought was “how did it get up there'” Cane toads are [...]

As you know, our weekend began with horse racing on Saturday, but how did it end'
Allow me to tell you.
On Saturday evening, we put up our Christmas decorations. Our idea of Christmas decorations is probably a little more conservative than most people’s idea. We have, for many years, simply put up a Christmas tree with [...]

Talking of stamps, I heard from a friend of mine back in England the other week that there was a bit of a post strike going on. When I departed from England’s shores two years ago, the UK’s postal service seemed a complete mess to me.
