TWE – The Weekly Edition kind of a mini magazine in one and is a regular medley write-up of things we’ve seen, done, eaten and drunk recently. It’s a great way to stay in touch with what we’ve been up to – much of which isn’t on social media.
Each week we like to keep a little note, almost a diary for ourselves, of what we have been up to. It’s a way to share some great new finds, restaurants we tried or recipes we made, and just a little way for us to record the best things we see. Normally this is all … Read more
Sydney is in the midst of one of its busiest festival seasons, so there’s plenty going on already. Add to that some of the stuff we’ve been up to this week and the pace this year’s setting explains how we’re halfway through January without even breaking stride. In this Weekly Edition, we’re checking out an … Read more
Wow! It’s always amazing how much of a blur Christmas and New Year’s are when you try and look back on it all – and not just because of all the mince pies and brandy. Anyway, as this is our first post for 2019, we thought we’d catch up on what when over our festive … Read more
As December settles in, everyone starts going a little crazy. And it’s not something I’ve only just noticed. It happens in the northern hemisphere too. I remember it well when I was growing up in the UK. But perhaps because this month not only represents Christmas to many of us, and on a personal note … Read more
Sydney has officially entered full-blown silly season mode! It happens every Christmas, but it always takes me by surprise. Shops are crazy, bars and restaurants are to their rafters, and everyone’s moving around at an unsustainable pace. To make matters even more complicated, it’s Christina’s birthday tomorrow, which always adds to my own personal brand … Read more
With a new video series just finished and a 23-page gift guide to roll out, it’s amazing we’ve had time for anything else this week. Somehow though, we managed to spend a whole day at Taronga Zoo and get some solid socialising done too! Over on Hair Romance, Christina’s series of daily Q&A videos (you … Read more
This past week has been typically unreliable here in Sydney. As summer comes on, the risk for everything to either get rained out to the point of drowning or roasted to death in a sudden heatwave are equally possible. Thankfully, our plans have somehow fallen perfectly into the gaps in the crazy weather gods’ schedules. … Read more
With the weather in Sydney turning warmer, the summer options for things to do in town are coming out to play. This week, we’re checking out the latest Openair Cinema to open in Australia. Plus we’re checking out a couple of favourite food spots – just to make sure they’re still hitting the mark. In … Read more
This week has been a lot of schmoozing, which is a lot of fun. Launches of Nespresso’s latest (and possibly greatest) boutique in Sydney and the Sheraton Hyde Park’s promotion to Sheraton Grand status all called for big parties. Plus I met up with some mates to celebrate a Wednesday (seemed a good enough reason) … Read more
In spite of Christina and I doing our best to lose all the travel weight our bodies have discovered since April, this week has been pretty food heavy. Not that I’m complaining. These are some of the most fun kilos I’ve ever gained, but this week has been a bit of a dead rubber in … Read more
