Poetry project

I have been negotiating with someone who is looking for content to add to a software application. He seemed interested in my poems so I sent off two files and came up with two titles. I think my poetry is good enough to warrant someone doing something with it. We will see what will happen.
It is nice to be working on a poetry project again for a change. I'm all for it!

Loved-up getaway

Now let me ask you honestly: Who does not relish the notion of taking his loved one away on a fantastic romantic vacation or weekend get away? Is there really anything that can beat packing up for a romantic trip and forgetting for once about work and everyday life? Love is carefree and deserves the appropriate attention. Treat your significant other well and celebrate your love. That’s the idea I think.

Well then, why not book a fabulous and romantic cancun vacation in one of the luxurious Karisma hotels right there on Mexico’s beautiful Riviera Maya. You should know that these wonderful hotels are located near the loveliest white sandy beaches. Here you will be treated to an outstanding service.

God's canvas

No art work could better God's canvas, the colours and brush strokes of Nature and Creation on the sky. It's just mind blowing how impressive Creation really is. That's what I think anyway. Beauty is enchanted, in my opinion. I stand by that..

Kokoda

Kokoda, that infamous name once again holds sadness for Australians. Nine Aussies were killed when an aircraft crashed in dense jungle in Papua New Guinea. The plane was on its way to Kokoda and the people on board were planning to walk the gruelling track made notorious by the fighting in WWWII when Aussie forces were up against the might of Imperial Japan. The crash site looked horrific. Memento Mori..

A great vacation

Let me just say right off the mark that, all things considered, I am a bit of a big fan of life in general. Of course, like anyone else I do have my off days as well, but in general I do enjoy my life as it is with all its ups and downs. So, there you have it. And yet I can say that some things make me smile more than others. For instance, a nice meal with a fine wine and some great company is one.

Also, I simply love going on vacation. There are few things so enjoyable as a great family vacation spent somewhere truly spectacular. Check out the white sand beaches of Riviera Maya for a really wonderful vacation. There is nowhere quite like it.

Life and such

Life is pretty darn good at the mo. I have to admit that all in all I am pretty happy right now. I have some gainful employment, a girlfriend, friends and family and to top it all off my doctor said that my cholesterol levels are spot on. So, I'm going to make the most of it and just enjoy myself for a while. As Paul McCartney said: What's the use in worrying? And I agree with him there. So, there.

Ashes

On Thursday the third test of the Ashes series will commence. Can't wait. It's strange but I find listening to the commentary in the background very soothing and comforting. I don't really understand the game but it fascinates me that both Aussies and the English are so keen on the Ashes. It really is quite something. And you have to admire a game where the athletes stop for lunch and drinks and what not. Where's Warne when you need him?

Putting together a great rare coin collection

Collecting can be great fun. Many happy hours can be spent collecting that rare commodity that you happen to be interested in. It can be a veritable passion that consumes the collector to some great extent. But, have you considered the notable fact that a collection can also provide one with a very valuable investment option?

For instance, if you are thinking of building up a rare coincollection then you should definitely look into using the outstanding services of Monaco Rare Coins. Have a look at their website to see the many ways in which they can help you build up a fabulous rare coin portfolio.

The city

I love Sydney. I know I have said it before and I will say it again. This is a stunning city where life is pretty darn good. I've moved around a bit in my life but I am starting to feel that this is the place where I want to put down roots and settle down. Sydney, I love thee..

The can

Whatever you, make you you Don't Lick the Can Man..., okay?

My beautiful city

A picture of my beloved Sydney Harbour, taken on an overcast sort of day. I have come to love this city, the city of my birth and the one that I am slowly rediscovering. As world cities go this one is a stunner, to say the least.

Poetry or prose

I'm currently working on a novel and so far it is going quite well. I still look back fondly to my poetry writing days as well but I want to forge ahead with this big prose project. What I would really like is to develop a prose style that is quite poetical in its tone and feel. Some of my favourite novelists are able to pen a sentence that just flows on in an eminently aesthetic manner. I'll just keep working on it and see if I can develop my 'voice'..

Sound investing

In these uncertain financial times with all of their concomitant worries and problems it is good to know that there are still ways of investing in secure commodities. One of these sound investment prospects remains gold. Whether it is gold bullion or gold coins you would like to consider investing in, Monaco Rare Coin can help you out.

Gold is one of the most secure ways to invest your hard earned money. After all, are we not all looking for a bit of financial security these days? I know that I for one certainly am. You simply cannot go wrong when you invest in gold assets, such as gold coins or bullion.

Show

Last night I watched Letterman and he had Howard Stern on. He was quite entertaining and affable and made for a good guest. Certainly better than the previous show when famous airhead Paris Hilton was the main guest. That was just annoying and slightly embarrassing. And yet I gather that some men find her attractive. Quite honestly, she repulses me somewhat.

Pub

Spent a great night down the pub with some good friends of mine. It was someone’s birthday and this someone also introduced her new fellow to us. A nice bloke who seemed to cope well with all the attention lavished on him as the proverbial newcomer. A fun and raucous night followed and a great time was held by all. So there.

Fabulous jewelry

Is there anything in this world of ours that denotes luxury and a sense of well being quite like a stunning piece of jewelry? I doubt it. For ladies it is just a wonderful accessory to be able to add a thing of beauty to their own natural splendour. For we men it is a joy to surprise the woman in our life with a present in the shape of a fabulous necklace or ring or pair of ear rings. That moment when that precious little box is opened and the look of awe and joy on a lady’s face are just invaluable.

Check out the fantastic fashion jewelry of Holsted Jewelers for a great range of superb jewelry.

Sleep

After years of not being able to sleep in any more I am now finding I can quite easily have a bit of a lie-in. My apartment tends to be nice and quiet and a veritable haven of peace and tranquility. I feel okay here and perhaps that, in turn, enables me to really unwind and relax for a change. Anyway, that's my theory and I'm sticking to it. Call me old fashioned.

Poetry, that whimsical

I'm about to give one of my poetry books to a good friend of mine. I hope she'll appreciate it. You can never really tell when you give away one of your own books. Do they really like the gesture or do they think you're up your self and imposing your ramblings on them, abusing their friendship in some way or to some extent. We'll see.

A helping hand

Bus joy

I got back quite late from town last night on the bus and found that in contrast to some other places I have lived in the past, the experience was a safe one and there seemed nothing to worry about in the way of personal security. There were a few people waiting at the bus stop, the bus showed up dead on time, the driver was courteous and friendly and fifteen minutes later I was back home. Great stuff, really.
