Expensive bottled water
Aug 17th
Why is bottled water so expensive? I don’t know! It needs to be to keep the economy going? Nah.
I have seen bottled water costing as much $3.50 in vending machines. What is this world coming to? Its actually more expensive than a litre of fuel.
Do we really need expensive bottled More >
Sleepless in Melbourne
May 3rd
No. I don’t have sleep apnea or any sleeping disorders. My kids are all sleeping through the night and I have no immediate worries.
I have been on work pager duties for the last 2 weeks. It was going smoothly (no paging) for the 1st 10 days and when I last More >
Bus shelters vandalism
Apr 9th
Broken glass near bus shelters are a common scene here in Melbourne. Especially after a long weekend and during school holidays. I drove past many bus and tram shelters last long weekend, I lost counts of the numbers of shelters/stops that looked like the picture on the left.

T.O.Y

Quiet Chinese New Year in Melbourne
Feb 15th
Year of the Tiger it is… This year, it was on a Sunday 14/2/10. Yeah…
It’s not a public holiday here in Australia for Chinese New Year(CNY). Maybe mandarin speaking K Rudd can align our nation with our neighbouring SE Asian countries and declare CNY a public holiday? I am sure More >
1st post, a giant step…
Feb 11th
Oi Oi Oi… What is this? I was thinking of a short and punchy domain name for this blog site. I had a few suggestions from friends but there were too ordinary. My friends might disagree though. What’s better than the Aussie chant/catchphrase “Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy Oi Oi Oi…” Hence More >
