Tuggeranong truants

By 29 April, 2012

So last Friday during school hours I was walking to my car via the Gazebo down behind La Porchetta next to the Tuggeranong Hyperdome and noticed some teenagers in hoodies and ‘homie’ gear sitting around the Gazebo yelling some sort of abuse at a couple as they walked past.  Well it was my turn as [...]

Restaurants that provide low fat options?

By 3 February, 2012

Female fashions and ‘other’ religions

By 9 February, 2011

Me and the wife were enjoying an afternoon of bank account draining fun (my account not hers!) at the Tuggeranong Hyperdome last Sunday.  My wife finding a nice dress that didn’t leave much to the imagination in the cleavage department,  she decided to change into it in the store and wear it in the mall [...]
