Mummy’s Got Talent, Too
Remember Mummy’s Got Talent? So Talent100 calls while we’re driving around the small towns outside Melbourne, I mention I’m out of the country to the assistant on the other line and figure that’s pretty much the end of my care-lair-fare … Continue reading
Give It To Me Baby (Part II)
And this is how they do it… Check out the markdowns – difference price if you buy in different months. As a result I buy almost nothing full-priced (I appreciate the quality/ design, but especially knowing how they mark down … Continue reading
Lead Us Not Into Temptation
Autumn catalogues from Lane Crawford are in… Unimpressed Rockstar Yesterday, 7 am: We land back in Hong Kong after a 9 hour night flight 9.30 am: Rockstar, newly cleaned up and fed, is reacquainting himself with his books and toys … Continue reading
In A Perfect Hong Kong World
In a perfect Hong Kong world: 1. You would be able to see the stars more nights. (After being away 2 weeks we can smell the difference in the air when we exit the airport. Sad, cos otherwise we were … Continue reading

The Banana
So we land after a 9 hour flight and get totally reamed out by Immigration. There is (wait for it) an undeclared banana in our bag. Not just any banana, you understand – a Hong Kong banana. From the land … Continue reading
The Name Game
On the eve of our Melbourne trip Rockstar is still having diarrhea every 3 hours so I will feel free to steal shamelessly from Levitt and Dubner’s Freakonomics today. (I will also feel free to eat deep fried goat’s cheese … Continue reading
3 Queues
1. Pacific Place, about 5.50pm She was perfectly made up. Her long hair was set into bouncy, luxurious waves, her lipstick freshly applied, her skin milky fair (no market for hitam manis attraction among north Asians), her long nails exquisitely … Continue reading
