A cautionary tale of why one should NEVER venture out into the world without coffee

I'm fortunate to live close to nature; Sure, I live in the suburbs of a city of around 1.2 million people but within only minutes of home I can be walking through the Australian bush spotting wildlife

I had a fairly intensive day today. I've been pondering weighty matters as Faith and I are considering changing our accountant of seventeen years and selecting a new one is a big decision. Further to that

Over the last month or so I've received a lot of messages about Grouchy and his girlfriend Roxy. It seems the hive community wonders where they've been. Don't worry folks, I'm pleased to say that Grouchy

Grouchy has been quiet of late; He and his partner Roxy, yes, they are officially an item now, have been spending time together learning about each other, talking about their future and spending a lot

So it's Sunday and we are over the big hump. The days will get shorter finally. I don't known exactly why I like that so much. Maybe because I love winter here. Maybe because I have been in the sun for

It's been over a week since I've had a good chat with Grouchy; He's been busy with his new girlfriend Roxy and from what I can tell things are going great. You can take a look at the post about him bringing

"I'm nervous bro." The usually confident Grouchy had a look of consternation on his face. It seemed odd to see him look so unsure. "Roxy?" I said simply, knowing Grouchy's girlfriend,

Hey y'all, it seems like the jokes on me. Grouchy hacked my computer, and my hive account, a couple days ago and has been having his way with it since. You can read about his exploits here, a post written

That's right, it took me a while, but I finally worked out G-dog's password, (it's g-dog123), and hacked it while he's at the supermarket buying me Oreo's...Sucker! I gave him the Grouchy-pout and said,

I looked up from my computer where I was labouring away pretending to work at my day-job whilst actually reading posts on hive. Who is that knocking on the door I wondered distractedly to myself. Don't

"For me?" Grouchy said with unabashed glee written all over his face...Clearly displayed in the image below. "Seriously, all of it?" "I've been hard on you lately bro, and I wanted

As I left for the office today I said to my little green mate Grouchy, "remember cobber, don't get into any mischief when I'm gone and do not take my 4x4 racing truck out, I mean it. I just washed

My little green buddy Grouchy has been quiet lately; He's been keeping to himself, not being too demanding and in general just being very well behaved; This is a condition I'm not used to as he's normally

"You're an idiot." Grouchy announced this morning. I looked up from my computer where I was working on an email for a client, one of South Australia's most wealthy property investors, and raised

Today was like any other Saturday although I had Grouchy nagging at me because he was bored. I threw him to the cats for a bit just to see if getting thrown around by them like a cat toy would stop his

This is my little cobber Grouchy; Most of you know him but some might not. You can scroll back through my blog and find his introduction post if you like, but all you really need to know is that he's my

"I don't know what all the fuss is about." Grouchy said, shaking his head in mild disgust as he chomped on a sandwich. I looked up from the beetroot, cheese and mayo sandwich I was munggin' on

Grouchy hasn't always been the most responsible fellow; He has a slight drinking problem, eats too many Oreo's and tends to get quite short with people...Plus, he doesn't suffer fools gladly, which he

I've been busy this last week or so with work commitments and a few tasks at home requiring my attention. I'm actually taking delivery of a new gun safe in the next few days and have been preparing my
