Ta da, Shed Cat!

A while ago, a friend and I were having a chat on the Metro.

Back in the days when I was a lecturer, I used to sigh a lot when I was marking lab reports and essays.

Quick note!

Have you ever had a dream that seemed to predict the future?

If you had the same kind of education as me, you were probably taught at a young age that there are five human senses: vision, hearing, touch, taste and smell.

It’s been a while since I’ve been on a plane, but I have a vivid memory of the food being awful.

In 2012, the boyband One Direction appeared on an Australian breakfast TV show, Sunrise.
