My Favourite Five: Anne Hathaway Movies
I like Anne Hathaway. While she may have gotten her big break in a Disney movie, she hasn’t shied away from varying and challenging roles. Here are five of my favourites:
My Coconut Journey
I’ve been reading up on the hype of coconut oil and coconut water and I must say it has me a little curious. There is so much information and testimony out there about the many benefits of coconuts. It’s apparently a very good source of moisture for your hair, skin and overall hydration. However, as you can’t believe everything you read, I decided to test it out for myself. I bought a jar of virgin, cold pressed coconut oil for the purpose of my experiment and tried a couple of different coconut water drinks. Here’s what I have discovered so far: Continue reading “My Coconut Journey”
My Favourite Five: Phoebe Quotes
I love Phoebe as a character because she’s sassy, childlike and tough and just when you think you’ve got her all figured out she throws out a one-liner that will either make you laugh or leave you with a mountain of questions. Here are my favourite Phoebe quotes:
5) “A promise between friends means never having to give a reason.” (Phoebe can be rather profound when she wants to be and quite the manipulator – poor Joey!)
4) Rachel: “Phoebe, do you have a plan?”
Phoebe: “I don’t even have a pla.” (Yep. There has been so many days like this.) Continue reading “My Favourite Five: Phoebe Quotes”

I’m going off memory so some details may be slightly off – but I try my best to remember correctly, otherwise, I don’t put it in here.
My Favourite Five: Colin Firth Movies
It is difficult to choose only five favourite Colin Firth movies. There has been so many he has been in and I am yet to find one that I didn’t like his performance in. Here are five that, for me, have been memorable. Continue reading “My Favourite Five: Colin Firth Movies”
Thoughts on the movie Blended
Blended is one of those movies you don’t deliberately go out of your way to see but when you do happen to watch it you are somewhat glad that you did.
Don’t get me wrong, I loved Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore together in The Wedding Singer and 50 First Dates. Their chemistry was natural and the storylines well fleshed out and balanced with well-timed comedy. Blended, however, fails to transition into an Adam Sandler classic and instead manages to be an average family friendly movie you might drag out on a rainy day for kids between 9 and 15. Continue reading “Thoughts on the movie Blended”
Thoughts on Ant-Man (2015)
I saw Ant-Man on its opening day – who have I become? Thoughts under the cut!

Interview: Actor Ben Nicholas
You may recognise Ben Nicholas from his days playing Scott “Stingray” Timmins in Neighbours 10-odd years ago. Ben just recently finished the mock-reality web-series Footballer Wants A Wife. I spoke to Ben about this exciting new project, reality television and the death of Stingray.
You’re currently working on Footballer Wants A Wife. Where did the idea come from?
Well, after a really bad trip to LA in search of work, I decided to take matters into my own hands and write my own show. Naturally, I wrote myself as the lead [laughs].
