Stop drinking wine right now
This is my Gen X Girl column from this week's Savvy Magazine that appears in the Townsville Bulletin. It’s no secret that I enjoy a drop of wine. OK, to be fair maybe that could be more than a mere drop, but I’m hardly Robinson Crusoe. Anyway [...]
Illustrating the Joy of Sex
I love Joy of books. Actually I have the Joy of Cooking. I don't however possess a copy of the Joy of Sex. Apparently it was a BIG DEAL when it was published. Lots of instructions and pen and pencil drawings. They couldn't do photos--too rude. So [...]
The truth about pregnancy by Carla Sarkozy
God bless you Carla Sarkozy--former supermodel and present first lady of France. You are not going to be the poster child for the elderly primagravida (true medical term) mother as you near the end of your pregnancy. No you can't wait for it all to [...]

Five over-rated things
This is from my Gen X Girl weekly column in this week's Townsville Bulletin Savvy Magazine. Along with 11 million other Australians I went and saw the final instalment of the Harry Potter series last week. It was good, not great but that’s OK [...]
Liar, liar, liarexic
Are you a liarexic? What, you’ve never heard of liarexia? It’s a condition, experienced mostly by women whereby they lie about their food intake? Hmm, imagine that—women with food issues. Anyway to put it succinctly it’s a condition [...]
So the water thing is wrong too
So I'll just take a moment to say, between frantic dashes to the toilet, that I've got it all wrong. Apparently none of us needs to be drinking eight glasses of water a day so put that water bottle down right now. According to a study published [...]
Warnie the trophy wife
This is from my weekly column that appears in the Townsville Bulletin's Savvy Magazine. I love makeovers. Love TV makeover shows more for that matter. Property, people, lifestyles—I'm all over them. Just so long that some that was previously in [...]
