And we're back - just three bloggerists this time, but two amazing story-tellers joining me for another season of Tandem Blog posting. Join myself, Megan and Dave as we take the same title and give it our own personal and unique flavour... = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = THAT NAGGING FEELING 'Gently does it. Keep your speed average. Not too fast. Not too slow. We [...]
Close to 13 years of doing Improv with Megan Furniss and differing amounts of years with the rest of this crazy bunch i usually get to hang with on a Monday evening. Making stuff up. And to be absolutely honest, i had been getting a little tired of the same old formula, week in, week out, and so when i was about to leave for a month to go overseas again, in one sense i [...]
This one will no doubt surprise and shock a few South Africans, but one of the highlights of my life was being a Spur waiter for five years, back when we didn’t know how offensive the logo potentially was: […]
A bunch of us went to watch Jurassic World last night and it was a lot of fun. i am a HUGE Chris Pratt fan [before it was cool to be] and he totally brought it. Indiana Pratt Jones? Bring it on! But on the way home it was brought to my attention that there have been rumours on the internet that his character Owen is a grown-up version of the young boy from the original [...]
Dan, Heidi, mini Truter, Heather, Reegs, Ang In the days before tbV and Settlers of Catan, we had to find other ways to amuse ourselves, and most of those happened at a place called Highbury. […]
People can be cruel. Let's face it. You innocently stumble upon a complete strangers blog, offer a genuinely flavoured racist slur and call them a name when they respond a little too defensively, and before you know it they are calling you "a Troll". Ow, that hurts, people. But what if it's true? What if all these years you have been innocently Trolling on the internet and you just didn't know? Well as a public [...]
Meet Marci. Marci has a problem. 10.15am From the moment she recovers from the second round of playing Snooze on her Nokia 6510i, Marci has one sole focus in mind. "Not to be confused with the Nokia 6510!", she always responds with a slight giggle when people ask her what model she has, and she mouths those soundless words again as she throws on last nights clothes and heads to the bathroom for a 76 [...]

More people have cellphones than they do toilets. A startling fact according to a recent study made by the U.N. is that out of the world’s estimated 7 billion people, 6 billion have access to mobile phones, while only 4.5 billion have access to working toilets. This is a deeply disturbing fact, although that was back in 2013 and so hopefully we have moved on a lot from then. What is a far less serious misfortune is that very [...]
Imagine waking up one morning and going online and seeing a semi-naked-sprawled-out-on-the-bed-alongside-your-Improv-friend picture of yourself circling the internet... Cause for panic, right? You'd think so, unless the picture was this one: Which i woke up to a week or so ago and was like 'Holy Crapamole, what's my wife going to think?' Fortunately tbV was awake and laughing at it in the other room and so we just jumped on the banned wagon and helped spread [...]
