Raised by rockabillies

                    How familiar are you all with the rockabilly demographic? To put it simply to those who don’t get it, it’s people of today who look like they’re from the fifties or sixties. They wear lots of polka dots and cool clothes. Most have dyed red […]

Disabled sister’s bathroom

                            I come from a family where all siblings are very far apart in age. I’m the youngest of four. Believe it or not, my eldest sibling is forty years older than me! Due to these age gaps, my siblings and I […]

Dawdling At The Store

I have such a good laugh every day at work. I’d like to think of myself as a pretty laid back guy and nothing really rustles my feathers, so to speak. My workmate is the complete opposite. Everything gets under his skin. Like, mate – if the apprentice wants to waste his education and spend […]

Reminiscing On My Wedding

Wow. If I was emotional when I watched my proposal video two years ago, I don’t even know how to describe myself now. Maybe inconsolable would be the right word? But in a good way? I’m crying the happiest tears I’ve ever cried. You’re probably wondering why and the answer is because we’ve just received […]

Life Without Heating

Day 1 with no heater Wow, you don’t realise how much you need a heater until you don’t have one. We’ve only been surviving without our heater for 20 hours now and I can tell you with absolute certainty that it’s twenty hours too long. I can feel my fingers tingling because I’m so cold. […]

Cancelled Road Trip

I haven’t been on a holiday in over two years. This really unfortunate situation happened across the world, which made it impossible for anyone to travel both nationally and internationally. So, I’ve been stuck in the suburb of Malvern for far too long. We were finally given the all-clear to travel nationally a couple of […]

Literal Construction Companies

I’ve been looking forward to this for years—the day where I finally get to have a house built. It has taken a long time of saving money, working multiple tough jobs, and eventually taking a very large “loan” from the bank (if you know what I mean), but I got here eventually. The number one […]

My Crazy Boss

  The strangest thing happened at work today. I actually think my boss has lost his mind. How much longer can he rule this company for, before the board realises he’s gone loony and kicks him out of his position? Certainly, if he’s handing his employees strange objects for no real reason, then his time […]

New Hardware Store

There’s this new hardware store in my town, but I’m not sure about it. It’s called Sterge and Daughters, run by this really strange manager. Apparently, he used to work for a huge department store chain that got shut down recently, so he decided to reopen his old family hardware shop. The thing is, he’s […]

Robin Collinson’s Drainage

Who do I think has been messing with the house? I’m pretty sure it was Nadia. No real reason, other than the fact that she’s pretty crazy and does whatever she wants. I don’t even bother energy-draining her anymore because it just takes up too much of my energy. I’m genuinely afraid to talk to […]
