One is arguably the world’s greatest violin player. The other one sells millions of crappy CD’s and puts on a circus like show.
I’m sure Andre is a nice guy, but he’s giving classical music a bad name and makes my toes curl. This video clip looks like a piss-take ‘Fabio’ commercial from a comedy show. Eeewwww…….
From everything I’ve heard, Nigel Kennedy is an eccentric ratbag, and I have had the honour of witnessing his genius and touching his hand once already in this life and I’m going to see him again at the Opera House in a couple of weeks. I can’t wait!!
On turning 40 “when you pluck out a grey hair, they just grow back, and usually they just multiply and take over. Best to leave them alone and learn how to co-exist. The grey hair will always win in the end!”
A lesson that can be applied to many things in life.
In my travels researching products for the shop, I came across a great site that sells Australian Made Modern Cloth Nappies called Green Kids. Now since I have no desire to ever sell nappies (after all, I do think that if you haven’t changed hundreds of them and gagged at the smell, then you don’t know enough about them to sell them), I feel liek giving them a free plug!
Who ever knew that you could by fashionable nappies in so many bright and funky colours and patterns. Check out the funtime nappies section and be the envy of everyone at play group
I just love the sensationalist headlines on news.com.au. This morning, on the front page, the headline says “Up yours Kevin Rudd” in relation to this story….
People, don’t poke bears. They get angry, turn around and scratch your eyes out and try to eat you. Just play nice and no-one gets hurt. Try to take on a bear, and the bear usually wins.
Yes, I’m an online shopping junkie. It’s so much easier to let your fingers do the walking and compare products online from the comfort of your own home. There’s so many great online shops around now, even if I didn’t make them all!
One of my favourite haunts is Home Couture. They have every possible cute little knick knack you could ever want for your kitchen and so much great stuff you’ll never come across in shops. Visit this site at your own risk, you’ll get addicted to it, trust me!
It’s a sad and disgusting day today when the little flute interlude from Men At Work’s ‘Down Under’ loses a court case against the new owners of the song “Kookaburra Sits In The Old Gum Tree”. It’s not the melody, it’s a little filler, and it’s really just a small snippet of notes in a sequence, and it’s the 3rd, 5th & 6th notes of the scale, and there’s other stuff in the middle.
As a musician and an Australian, I’m bloody disgusted.
I’m turning 40 soon and I’m trying to figure out what I’m going to do for my birthday. Let’s see, lunch, shopping, a movie …….. It’s been a while since I had a massage. I might take the day off work and slink about and shop and spoil myself. My massage therapist is just the best massage therapist on the Central Coast. She knows just where all those nasty spots are and afterwards, I always feel like I could curl up in a ball and go to sleep!
The Ladakh label is so hard to find in shops, and if you’re ever lucky enough to find someone who stocks it, they never end up having what you want, or if they do, it’s not available in your size.
Freez Clothing in Sydney are one of the biggest Ladakh stockists around, and have two shops, but alas, I don’t live in Sydney. Luckily, they have an online shop and they have pretty much the entire range of Ladakh online.
If the thought of buying clothes online freaks you out, don’t worry, Freez will let you return products and swap the sizes or even just get a credit and pick something else.
