  Since moving into our new house, I have had an eye out for a decent TV bargain. It is pretty hard to get anything sub-1000 AUD by a high quality brand such a LG/Samsung or the likes. I did have something that popped up a while back, but that was...

  Phew... some days are just going to be one race after another. Now... I'm sitting in a tyre shop, waiting... a first chance to stop, a lull before the storm. So... back up a few hours. I'm leaving to cram in some teaching after picking up my bro...

  I think I must have mentioned it before, but I am not really that fond of Sydney (or Melbourne...). I grew up in a smaller city, and I did live in both of these cities for periods of time... but I never really liked the big city feel... too many...

  After so many years away, it is such a pleasure to return back to one of favourite concert halls in whole world! I'm not really sure why I love the Angel Place Recital Hall quite so much, it is acoustically very nice to play in, but I think it h...

  Now that I'm in Australia... it is time to start exploring the various places around this continent that I can eat out in (hmmm, that sounds more weird than it should have!). So, my mother was recently visiting us in Canberra, and she loves her hi...
