- My Style:
Whatever I feel like on the day! - Music:
A mish-mash of many but trusted and current stand-outs include Powderfinger, Kate Nash, Girl Talk, Architecture in Helsinki, Queen, Pnau, Scissor Sisters, Bumblebeez, cheesy retro... I say no to country, euro trash and heavy metal. - Travel Spots:
Greece, Ireland, Croatia, Italy and the Australian coast with its amazing beaches. Just did South East Asia - a mix of sun, fun, culture (shocks) and amazing food. - Books:
Lots and lots but here are some notable mentions: Animal Farm, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Tully, To Kill a Mockingbird, Loose Change, Valley of the Dolls, Huckstepp: A Dangerous Life, Turn ofthe Screw, Tuesdays with Morrie. Lots of true crime and non-fiction.

Burgers with bite â€" food review of Bite Me Burger Co.
Spurred on by an impressive review from my favourite Sydney newspaper, I made the venture to Campbell Parade to check out the latest Bite Me Burger Co restaurant (Paddington was the pioneer). Mmmm, burgers.This spacious restaurant is decked out with garish trimmings and pictures but don’t let that put you off. Nor the cutlery encased in a cardboard sleeve emblazoned with ‘Eat Me’, or the moist towelettes

Faker LIVE at The Basement
The Basement has always been a standout Sydney music venue and even more so in the winter months. The decline from the street into this friendly and cosy establishment, gives one warmth on a cold June night. Monday Night Live has been a great success, with many patrons fronting up to multiple gigs. Headlining this week were the boys from Faker, with a committed and energetic set that leaves no doubt as to why their fan base and popularityRead more...
Lars and his lady - A review of 'Lars and the Real Girl'
It somehow lucked-out at the Oscars (for best screenplay – Juno won – yes, it is better than Juno!), but I am awarding Lars and the Real Girl the title of ‘one of the best films to grace our cinema screens in a long time’. I stRead more...
To be sure, to be sure
Landing in Dublin, one suddenly feels at home and at ease. Perhaps it is just my Irish heritage, but truly, the people, sights and sounds are just so embracing. And how can you not like an Irish accent??? The pedestrian lights have a red, amber and green person as welRead more...
Get thee to a little island called Santorini
Believe the hype - Santorini is devine and a place everyone must see before they die. The trip up the mountain from the port is quite an interesting one especially if you fancy near-death experiences. The Greeks drive like maniacs, even on cliff-tops! This magnificentRead more...
Fit, fabulous and five years younger
Karl Otto Lagerfeld was born in Hamburg in 1933, though it is no secret that he has always shaved a few years off his lifespan and in fact quotes he was born in 1938. Whatever the year of birth, one thing is for sure, the man is a design genius and has wowed the fashion elite for years with his creativity and panache. In an early collection for Jean Patou, the press was savage, denouncing Lagerfeld’sRead more...
Faker - The Real Deal
There is nothing fake about the Australian quartet, Faker. Fresh from touring the country with the Big Day Out and landing the plum position of number five in Triple J’s annual crème de la crème, The Hottest 100, it’s nothing but bonafide for these boys. ‘This Heart Attack’ is the accolade-winning tune, off the album ‘Be The Twilight’, which delves into the human psyche and the darkeRead more...
