Adelaide bars and clubs
Here's my gripe about dress codes in bars and nightclubs. In the city where I live (Adelaide), I am restricted to just three bars where I can go out for a drink. I find it extremely annoying that I am refused entry to the other venues.

Excessive media attention
Am I the only person to be nauseated by all the fuss the media made over George Best's demise? The media have been going mad recently and I for one can't understand the point of it all.

Long queues at Alton Towers
Alton Towers is a great place to go. A great place if you like watching other people go on roller coasters whilst you queue for hours. If you hate queues don't bother with Alton Towers!

Motorcycle for sale child on the way
I really can’t understand new parents that give up the things they enjoy when the baby is born. For goodness sake, why sell the bike?

Quad bikes and thugs a menace
After years of saving and thousands of pounds of borrowing I have bought my first house. I work hard, pay my taxes and abide by the laws of the land.
