    Hey Australia…if it’s ok with you, please call me Mum and a Woman.

    Hey Australia….we need to talk! I’ve got to say this time I think we have gone too far! Now I am totally aware of the fact that political correctness seems to be the it thing at the moment but there comes a time when everything goes a step too far, and I think when it…

    I’m back b*tches….with a Spring in my step!

    Today is my happiest day of the year! (and no it’s not my birthday) It’s fair to say that for the first time in a while, I woke up with a spring in my step! And it couldn’t be a day too early. You see if you are like me then you have most likely…

  • Confessions of a Spice Fan

    Nothing says procrastination like the “Spice Girls Movie”! Here I sit trying to dedicate my peaceful hour and a half and focus my under working synapses on a lecture on media law and I find myself on a nostalgic journey back to the 90’s! Ah the 90’s and double Ahhhh the Spice Girls! I remember…

  • Dear Terrorist…You Won’t Win!

    Dear Terrorist…. Once again, the world is living with a heavy heart today after another terrorist attack. This time on Brussels, a small country which has become an epicenter in Europe for terrorist networks. Sadly we live daily now knowing it’s not if, but where and when. I no longer live thinking what if it’s…

  • A not so sweet state of mind!

      I’ve always been a big fan of Jamie Oliver. I’m a seasoned series watcher and if you were to open my kitchen cupboard you may be attacked by one of the many Jamie cookbooks that flow out of my unnecessary cookbook collection. However, Jamie, we have a problem. A serious problem. This week, celebrity…

  • My Not So Super-Bowl Experience

    I like to think I’ve had numerous accomplishments in my life and here I find myself today in a new and some what exciting position….able to watch the Superbowl 50. For the first time in my life, I can find out what all the fuss is about and get stuck into this…what must be exhilarating…

  • Save the I Spy….car party!

    I’m sorry…what the!! A news flash has just buzzed across my screen as I munch my way through my ultra light vegie lasagna…. “Reported death…….I Spy in the car on the family road trip!”…..stop the press….this is a headline I can’t ignore. I reluctantly turn down my piece of eggplant to run my eyes over…

  • Dunkin’ Nix for Charity – Relay For Life

    4 years ago I was asked to participate in the Relay for Life event in the Manly Warringah area of Sydney, an event I knew nothing about but it sounded like a challenge! On discovering it was an 18 hour walking event for the Cancer Council I launched into an epic 18 hour on air…

  • #nixonhols – The Great Barrier Reef – Nix Style

    My recent adventure up to FNQ saw me re-visting the Great Barrier Reef for the first time in around 20 years….now the first thing should say is group tours are probably one of my least fave things to do……the combination of a structured tour and strangers doesn’t usually leave me overly excited however…there are very…
