Since when did eating out become so darn hard?

Since when did eating out become so darn hard?

I don't know if it's an old person thing, but I'm getting really jacked off when I eat out lately. From being totally ignored when you stand at the please wait to be seated sign to being ignored when you are actually lucky enough to score a seat, [...]

Scientists say alcohol makes you feel better. Really?

Scientists say alcohol makes you feel better.  Really?

So how's this little lesson from the school of the bleeding obvious. Scientists have proved that drinking alcohol provides us with a big old hit of endorphins which make us feel better. And here I was thinking that we had a drink after work just [...]

A bit more respect for sharks, please

A bit more respect for sharks, please

This is from my Gen X Girl column that appears weekly in the Townsville Bulletin's Savvy magazine. Sharks are misjudged. And it’s all the fault of the media and its loose use of terms such as shark attack. And Hollywood is to blame as well. [...]

Ho, ho, ho. It’s Christmas party time

Ho, ho, ho. It’s Christmas party time

This is my column from this week's Savvy magazine, that appears in the Townsville Bulletin. The letter box is full of junk mail, the shopping centre carparks are full and there’s the ubiquitous hum of Jingle Bells playing in the background. It [...]

Champagne bubbles help you lose weight. It’s true

Champagne bubbles help you lose weight.  It’s true

Cara Lebya, I love you. That can be my only possible reaction to the person who has invented the Champagne Diet. According to Cara (I feel that we should be on first name terms) the diet is half healthy and half fun. Inspired by a lifestyle [...]
