    My Secret Drug (An Article that hits the spot every time)

    May 20, 2018

    Gday guys! How’s it all going? Wow, what about that Royal Wedding then aye? Wasn’t it just magical! And Bishop Curry, what a sermon he gave. Something different, something special. Such a captivating deliverance, speaking off-script and from the heart with passion and fervor in front of a global audience. Bishop Curry, were you nervous in front of the most famous and conservative family in the world? No sir, cos I’m doing me, I’m doing me. You gotta do you TFS, you said so yourself right? (I sure did, right here) Aw shucks Reverend, you shouldn’t have… Ahem, now doing you or I aside, fact is – I’ve been feeling in…

    How Watching Tintin is Changing Me One Step at a Time!

    April 23, 2018

    “No Tintin! Don’t go that way!” Said I, whilst on the edge of my seat this afternoon, engrossed in the latest episode of “The Adventures of Tintin”. The plot line was about one of his associates, a lady opera singer – who had lost her extremely valuable Emerald. Of course, like all Tintin stories – there was a happy ending (not that kind, it’s a children’s show for goodness sake). The lesson I got out of the episode, is if you ever lose a precious gemstone the size of your fist – don’t investigate your personal maid, or your gambling addict pianist. Emeralds are created when rocks are soaked in…

    6 Pros To Buying Off-The-Plan

    April 16, 2018

    What’s up ladies and gentlemen! Hope everyone had a great weekend. MrsFrugalSamurai-to-be certainly did – seeing as she had her hen’s on Saturday night. Poor old me was left home alone to entertain myself. I was crestfallen. … for about a minute! Because HUZZAH! It meant I finally had free rein over what I wanted to watch on Netflix. No more Korean dramas or American sitcoms for me! No siree, straight to bingeing on “The Adventures of Tintin”. Totally. Wild. But call me old, fact is that after the day I had on Saturday I really just wanted to lie in bed and watch some nostalgic childhood TV shows to unwind.…

    Are You Part of the 85% Disengaged at Work?

    April 12, 2018

    Hi guys – what’s up! How’s your week going? Mine’s alright except I’ve been doing a lot of thinking recently. Oh no – here we go… Wait! Hear me out. No, I’d rather go play hopscotch with Peggy the one-legged giraffe. … Look this’ll be quick. Fine, but hurry up – Peggy’s waiting. OK I’ll try… You see, I read a pretty concerning report recently, on the state of the workplace, and of management practices used in many organisations. It was orchestrated by Gallup (one of the world leaders in data analytics and consulting for big corporates when it comes to brand perception, attitudes and behaviours from customers, to employees…
