But the more I think about Juggsy’s predicament the more I can see parallel’s between what he’s going through with lurve to what…

Here’s What I Did After Losing $40,000
Hay Guys! How you all going! Summer has well and truly come to Sydney and I spent most of it outdoors with friends, how about you?! Hope you had a cracker of a weekend as well! After the crazy week at work I’ve had, I needed this! Don’t you just love social interactions with good friends, good food and good times? What life should be all about. I got a bit of banter from a couple of friends about the last post as well – “hey funny guy, why don’t you actually post what you did instead of some Santa Claus fairytales?” S…sorry if my darkest childhood memories got in the…
