Singapore Taxi
byThe best conversation of my famil to Maldives came on the last night on the clean streets of Singapore, and started with the simplest of enquiries.
Singapore Taxi
A Kiss Across The Ocean
byBeing away from the family has not been without its difficulties.
Maldives and Thongs
by‘We’ have arrived in the most romantic place on Earth.
The Wife Trap
by“I need you to check out a dating website,” is not the sort of thing you expect your wife to be telling you.
How Does It Add Up?
byLove to hear feedback from anyone who signed up to try #Mathspace like us – well over three hundred people headed over from my post a while back for a look. At the time I said I’d review our kids’ experience with the program and, rather wonderfully, @Westpac contacted me and said they’d sponsor that too! This is what’s known in the blogging industry as ‘winning’.
Is Sex Education Supposed To Be a Homeschooling Subject?
byMaybe I’m doing it wrong.
Are You Over The SSM Debate Too?
byI was downtown yesterday when I was accosted about my very public stance on same sex marriage. Several times.
Fun With Friends On Facebook

Son Of a Beach
byI lost a fight with my son today, and I’m so damn proud.

The Grand Tours
byWe fail, again, to make a good first impression…
Do You See What I See?
byNow I’m the first to admit I own the ‘have a daddy look’ cliche: I can’t see the butter if it’s hiding at the front of the fridge under the cheese slices.
That’s The Magic Number
byHome-schooling is going so well some days it feels like we’re starring in our own Idiocracy film.
Thank you to Westpac for supporting our family and sponsoring this post. On that, have you heard about the deal Westpac has brokered where they’re footing the bill for parents ($99) to enrol their kids in the Mathspace Essentials numeracy program? Worth taking a minute to check it out at the bottom of this post after you read about how good a teacher I am not.
But I Like Eating Onions
bySince her operation on Thursday, Tracey has been holding off eating until her doctor gives her the okay. In her absence, it seems at least one of her children has been attempting to go out in sympathy.
On The Button
byThings are progressing just about as well as can be expected. Better even. Like, I haven’t misplaced a single child in the 48 hours I’ve been left in charge.
