Be honest, how do I look?

  Picture this. You’ve had a terrible night’s sleep, you get out of bed, you look in the mirror and your hair’s taken on a life of its own. It’s as if, during the night, your hair leapt off your scalp, went out on a lavish all-night bender and then crawled back onto your head at about 4am to await your discovery a few hours later. So what are you going to do about it? How are you going to handle the day when it’s already treated you so despicably before breakfast? Well, you could laugh it off; and I don’t mean keep on laughing until your hair actually falls off. That would be stupid.  ..read more

Do you spit or swallow?

Which type are you? The sort of person who bites their lip or the one who just blurts out what’s on their mind and damn the consequences? I’m not talking about Attention Deficit Disorder, I’m talking about inconsiderate, tactless behaviour. I can remember in my early dating years I may have crossed the line. Let’s put it down to immaturity, but when I think back now, I thought I was being funny. The unfortunate guy asked me on our first date, “So...how do you think the date is going?” “Well, if I’m honest”, I replied, “if I leave now, I can still make the last 10 minutes of the News”.

Sometimes I really struggle with people. Why can’t everyone be more like me. I mean the world would be so much nicer....possibly sillier, but definitely nicer. I struggle most when people come across as dumb. I mean properly stupid. Stupid to the point where you’re left speechless. Moments where you can actually feel your jaw drop. You question yourself; did they just do that? Did I hear that correctly? Am I missing something? Are these people actually secret geniuses and I’m the idiot? Yep, that’s right, when you observe a dumb ass, self-doubt creeps in. Am I really from the same species as t ..read more

Who knew!?

  There’s an old adage that says ‘men sweat, women perspire’ which I know isn’t true. From personal experience, when I come off the water after rowing flat-out for 30 minutes, that ain’t tears of joy running down my face! Hec no, I sweat. And so do you sometimes, it’s a natural bodily function to cool the skin down. Which leads me perfectly to the point of this piece. The natural fibre composition of bamboo makes it a highly absorbent fabric and it’s generally accepted it draws water away from the body, 3 to 4 times more efficiently than cotton. This keeps the body drier and cooler, mean ..read more

  It’s not every day a new fashion brand launches in New Zealand, so when it does, it’s worth talking about.

4 types of chat-up lines & how to deal with them..
Bold AF Blogs

It was during my younger, nightclubbing days when I realised Darwin’s theory was correct. The male side of the species is definitely derived from apes. Women originate from Unicorns by the way. You can read all about it in Kate’s Origin of Species. Men’s inability to impress at the chat-up stage is mind blowing, and it really shouldn’t be that difficult. As way of proof, I’ve chosen a selection of well-worn chat-up lines and categorised them. Should any of these be unleashed upon you, at least you can feel prepared. Category 1 - The Corny line: Appropriate action should be a roll of the eyes ..read more

Online dating tips, you need to succeed

I finally got a friend into online dating. After 2 years of waiting for the perfect guy to knock on her front door, it dawned on her, she might, actually have to put in a modicum of effort. Now, I’m pretty sure there’s some do’s and don’ts when it comes to writing an online profile and my friend clearly knows all the don’ts. Firstly, the photos. I asked her to pick 6 photos she thought, summed her up and reflected her personality. That took half an hour, and on seeing her choices, I concluded it was half an hour of my life I’d never get back. Three of the photos dated back 10 years and, as a f ..read more
