At the risk of repeating myself I say to you "bargains" June 21, 2009

Before returning to Bundaberg on Thursday we stopped off at Chermside for a little shopping. The express purpose of the visit was for my mother to look for a wrap for the Wedding of the Century (see sidebar). However, the amount of money I spent in a swift three hour swing around the centre was […]

What Wendy Watched: Sunday Morning Coming Down May 30, 2009
