Evolution

Even though this exquisitely self built website may hopefully suggest otherwise…   I’ll be the first to admit that I’m probably not the best at using modern day technology…   A few months ago now. I had the pleasure of subscribing to Google’s Music...

Positioning

From where I live, to get to a place in New South Wales called Newcastle.   You have to travel along the Pacific Highway between Sydney and Brisbane.   And as I discovered a couple of weeks ago. This is almost certainly one of the most boring stretches of...

Billable Hours

Buckle your seat belts people, because in a few short paragraphs…   I’m going to teach you a thing or two about running a handyman business.   So sit down, shut up, and enjoy the experience of this 4am, Red Bull induced, self hatred fuelled, writing...
Customer Service?

Customer Service?

Apologies dear reader but every now and again…   Writing for blogs can become both a little wearisome and positively daunting. As one sits at one’s desk fighting for ideas as to what to actually bloody write. And as luck would have it, it seems that today...

Sound advice

Jogging on

Jogging on

I always used to think…   That my age really didn’t really matter to me. And why the hell should it? Jogging, that’s why!   After all, I still feel like a thirteen year old (and probably act like one too). In fact I have often said that I could...
Legalspeak…

Legalspeak…

In this modern day and age…   The one and only firmly fixed guarantee in life. Is that ‘experts’ can truly get right up your nose.   And now, thanks to modern technology. They can also get right into your ears (anagram of arse, a well known cavity from...
