Through word of mouth I managed to lock in a store to get my weekly FUIC supplies. They stock up from a delivery via an Adelaide delivery driver on Mondays and Thursdays and usually have a good supply of 20 racked on their refridgerated shelves (back left corner).
I am told ‘the Cranbrook run’ is taking on cult following in Townsville with expat Adelaidians arriving in droves. I am certainly a contributor to this local phenomenom. Are you? Let us know where else you find FUICs in North Queensland. It’s a Farmers Union Iced Coffee or It’s Nothing!!!

I found that spreading the limited time I have across a variety of blogs meant I could maybe post once a week from each. A posting frequency of once a week is good for me and my lifestyle. Two things were raised above: Firstly do I write across multiple niche blogs or write with one multi-topic blog, and secondly do I write big posts with 1 week breaks or write small posts with 1 day breaks. My preferences have evolved to the following tendencies… Read the rest of this entry »

For years Apple and all its marketing had no effect on me. I sat with my cheap IBM clones, intolerable mp3 playing mobiles and sank in Microsoft applications. For my 26th birthday I was given an iPod Touch and I’m blown away. Read the rest of this entry »

Well to people who know me fitness is a high priority. I am working on getting my fitness blog up and running so here is my first post: Hype or Helper - Digging into Skins Compression Wear.
