This morning I did something unusual yet opportunistic : I asked a stunningly beautiful woman to let me photograph her. Well, that is not the correct story, so let me explain further... After departing the train this morning, I visited my usual coffee-shop (just up the ramp between the North Terrace Train Station and up... Continue Reading →
My #SocADL Report
As you would have read previously, I went to the #SocAdl meeting-of minds on Tuesday, 3rd Nov 2009.

Any architectural firm that proposes the destruction of heritage architecture seriously needs to re-read its mandate and... Continue Reading →
In Excess
The value of the internet-age! We can now see well-in-advance what is showing on television before it happens: From 1am-5am tomorrow morning, nothing but INXS. Loving it! If you could listen to just one band or musician for four hours, who would it be?
Having a Response
I often read through the various forum-entry's around Redbubble.com and many blogs around the WWW: Sometimes I feel the need to respond, but invariably my comments end up quite lengthy. Thus, I often convert my thoughts to prose or short stories for publication here. Here are three separate yet entwined written pieces that I didn't... Continue Reading →
