Monday 16 January 2023 Photowalking at UNSW After yesterday’s wander around the University of NSW campus, I was looking forward to getting back there this morning and taking photos. I had about an hour and half to explore at first light, which wasn’t the greatest for some of the...
Sydney travel blog day 1
Sunday 15 January 2023 Travel blogging is still a thing Back in the days when TravelPod was a thing, I used to write travel blogs whenever I went on holiday. It was a fun way to keep track of where I’d been, what I’d done and what I’d seen....
Week 49/2022: Not much to say
Week of 5 December 2022 Not much to say This week was mostly the same as last week, with a couple of exciting things at the end of the week that involved Kramstable. I went out searching for agapanthus and kept exercising my shoulder. 22 for 2022 update I’m...
Week 47/2022: Moving again
Week of 21 November 2022 Move by 3 p.m. Getting back to posts about Laura Vanderkam’s book Tranquility by Tuesday, chapter 3 is called Move by 3 p.m. (Yes, I’ve skipped chapter 2. Because it’s complicated!) If you’re super observant, you might have noticed one of the habits I’ve...

Week 33/2022: Arty adventures
Week of 15 August 2022 Arty adventures Tuesdays are my half days at work. When I have a medical appointment at 12.00, which doesn’t happen very often because I normally get in at 2.20, my work day gets cut back to about two and a half hours. This Tuesday...
Week 32/2022: Joyful movement
Week of 8 August 2022 Joyful movement After writing about movement a few weeks ago, I started thinking about my walking habit. Walking is one of the things that I do. My habit has been to get up early and go for a walk before anyone else is up...
Week 30/2022: Goodnight, good neighbours
Week of 25 July 2022 To Pauline Hanson, Goodnight, good neighbours When I did my first solo trip to Melbourne in the mid-90s, I told my friends there were three things I absolutely had to do. To go to Hanging Rock, to see the floral clock and to visit...
Week 29/2022: Our bodies are made to move
Week of 18 July 2022 Our bodies are made to move That’s what the shoulder guru physiotherapist said to me at my first appointment on Tuesday. I mean, I know this, right? We are meant to move, not sit staring at a screen for eight, ten, twelve hours a...
