Tim Tam Time

Just sitting here, feeling overwhelmed by the number of skin lesions growing out there on the general public that need to be removed before Christmas. In fact, lately they all seem to need to be removed THIS week! However, in times of stress where do I turn? The trusty and ever-so-lightly chilled Tim Tam packet. My Tiny Friend is back from her Canadian & New York jaunt to announce that she decided to get hitched beforehand. In that frock, it's obvious that she doesn't imbibe in too many Tim Tams herself... I should take a leaf out of her book.

With regard to the whole exercise caper, I am yet to crack the 10km run in under an hour, despite a major effort last Sunday along the river. Oh gosh! It is SO gorgeous running along the Brisbane River. We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. Nevertheless, it needs to be tipped downwards to allow for faster speed.

My aunt's latest book, "The Florist's Daughter" has been released in the USA & is apparently doing very well. A signed copy is on its way to my letterbox as I write. My cousin Stephen's collaboration with Alek Wek has also just been published. He ghost wrote the book that tells the story of her life in war-torn Africa before she was discovered & came to fame & fortune in America as a big time model. It's apparently a good book so I am looking forward to reading it. No, I didn't hear that from Stephen but from the review in this month's Marie Clare!
