    What I Know Now: August Edition…

    * We’re in the final week of winter, and I for one, cannot WAIT until the temperature rises so I don’t need a hot water bottle, flannelette pyjamas and the extra blanket on my bed just to stay warm! Quite the sexy mental picture I’m painting for you, I know, but needs must! Cold hands, […]

    Chariot for sale… any offers considered.

    It has been almost a year since I’ve posted anything here and, to be honest, I’m feeling pretty rusty in the writing department. Sometimes it isn’t like riding a bike. As much as you’d like it to be. Not surprisingly, I wondered if the words would come out right, would I be able to string […]

    Lazy dogs, Tom Cruise, All Blacks and me…

    Check out my dog, would you? He’s having a lazy Sunday morning doing what he loves best; being as close as he can to the bosom of the family, and sleeping. It’s like the dog equivalent to having a large coffee and a read of the Sunday papers which is what I’ve been doing for […]

    Need a role model, anyone?

    I should be packing. My suitcase is currently sitting empty in my room, waiting to be filled with warm clothes (gotta love Melbourne weather) and probably too many pairs of shoes. I have yet to check-in to my flight online and print off my boarding pass, plus I need to organise a few last-minute things […]

    I should be reading the morning papers right now…

    It’s Sunday morning and I’m up already, showered, dressed and breakfasted. And all before 7.30am. This, I might add, is a VERY rare occurrence for a Sunday. The ONE day I get to sleep in. The reason for this? We have Son#2’s rugby presentation day at 10am but first, I have to drive for an […]

    Two games… two wins? Check and CHECK!

    Huge rugby day yesterday. Massive. It’s the pointy end of the rugby season and Mr 14’s rugby team had made the semi-finals. The boys were well and truly pumped and raring to go. If I heard it once, I heard it several times on the field: ‘fire up, boys’ and fire up they most certainly did. The […]

    A Bledisloe Cup to remember…

    You know those rare moments in life when events conspire to put you in the right place at the right time? YEAH. I had one such moment yesterday. I was watching M play rugby for his school at the same moment that the Bledisloe Cup Road Show arrived at the ground. It was there for […]

    Hello, it’s Destiny calling!

    Never has a game of rugby been so hotly anticipated by so many. Who would be the Rugby World Cup champions for 2011 – Les Bleus or the All Blacks? From Auckland to Avignon, Peru to Port Elizabeth rugby fans across the globe gathered en masse, either at Eden Park or tuned in via the nearest […]

    Blood, Sweat & Tears

    I can’t help myself — I’m grinning a mile wide as I type this: NEW ZEALAND   20   v    AUSTRALIA   6 All Black fans were treated to an incredible 80 minutes of rugby on Sunday night. If anyone was still unsure about the state of the All Blacks game during the singing of the national anthem, those worries should have vanished when the camera panned down the line of […]

    Got attitude? Good.

    Winston Churchill once said: ‘Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference’. And he was right. Having the right mental attitude is virtually ALWAYS a key factor in determining how successful you are. Positive people are, by and large, far more adept at making lemonade when life gives them lemons. And you don’t […]

About Me

Hi, I’m Sarah!

Former wild-child of the 80’s, classic rock fan and loyal friend to a particularly awesome group of people. Forever planning to write more. Fervently wishes she lived at the beach. Loves the mighty All Blacks. Rather partial to a cheeky glass of red.
