I don’t know what I was expecting from a mechanic in Toowoomba, but it certainly wasn’t that. After days of driving, I’m just about ready to be done with this quest that my father has sent me on. Apparently, it was too much to ask for one of these workshops to be simple, without giving …
Allow me to introduce myself. The name’s Bill Kettle, and I’m in the slippery dip business. I’ve designed and constructed slippery dips for just about every application you can think of: public playgrounds, water parks, novelty office spaces and even houses. Yes, houses have slippery dips now, and it’s all thanks to people like me …
Welcome one and all to the first electoral debate between Premier Norris and Dr Dark McBane. This will be an epic battle to convince the people of Victoria that they deserve to be in charge of the state. Of course, due to reasons, this debate must be held entirely online. I’m your host, Chuck Fiddlesticks, …
You know that moment when you’re just on the precipice of falling asleep, when you’re so close you can almost taste it, and then suddenly, with your eyes snapping open in anger, you’re completely awake? Not only are you awake in that instance, but you’re also so mad that, even in the darkness of your …
If I was going to find Cuthbert and get the magical snapper rack for my patron, I’d have to track down this window salesman first. What a window salesman would want with a snapper rack, I hadn’t the slightest clue. Now, ideally, the trade hadn’t occurred between the salesman and Cuthbert yet. If that was …
Schlock Homes and I, John Whatson, made our way toward the dark room with the red lights, which a mysterious note told me to follow. Where they would lead, I had no idea. Hopefully, however, they would provide a clue about the missing conveyancers we had been tasked with finding. When we entered the room, …
The second event of the first-ever Drain Plumber Games involved a simulated sewer through virtual reality video games. We were transported to a virtual environment where the sewer had to be unblocked, while the crowd watched on from the arena’s giant screen. Given that I had easily won the first event, I had the honour …
I’m a designer and I am extremely passionate about what I do. I own my own business but it’s just me, so obviously I can’t take on too many projects at once. I’m very picky about the projects I choose, because of this. Each project has to be a bigger challenge than the last one, …
I’ve got to get a scoop on tattoos? What’s a guy gotta do to get an easy story in these parts! I guess old Scoop McGee doesn’t do easy. I get the hardest stories, I write the tough stuff, and I stake my reputation on the hottest scoops this side of the Pacific, see! Oh, …
They call it a floating staircase. It’s a thing, they say. It’s an interior design feature, an optical illusion. But still, I can’t shake the disturbing feeling that stairs simply shouldn’t be doing that – hovering in midair, that is. That’s not how I was brought up. I can’t condone stairs that aren’t firmly affixed …
