Golden times

I happen to be one of those peculiar customers who do not really like to carry around with them a large amount of loose change in whatever denominations. There, I have said it, it is out there. My wallet, whilst full of things beside hard cash, does not even contain a separate section for any coins to be stored away. I am that hard core, dear listeners, and I do not care who knows it, truly and verily.

But I could be persuaded to find a keen eye and an appreciation for gold coins if truth be told. Gold coins can be an amazing asset in these times of financial and economic turmoil. Let us face it, in life not many things are certain and besides death and taxes, gold coins are certainly up there as well, I think you must concede.

Check out the fantastic United States Gold Bureau to find out more and to see how you can invest in gold and gold coins. You will not regret it, I tell you.

Dreaming time

Dreams is funny mate. Do you not agree with me, gov? Last night, for instance, I was dreaming my family owned a large German Shepard dog. The dog was German, you could tell, because he talked with a broad Teutonic accent, was very impatient and arrogant and always left his towel on the sun lounger by the swimming pool in the mornings while at holiday. But I digress as I am wont to do, it is true. It was a lovely dog and very affectionate and, at least for the duration of this quirky dream, I loved it dearly. Oh and there was something about a man with a hair piece as well, the finer details of that sub plot elude me now in the harsh light of day. Never mind.

Sunny within

The sun is shining, my darling fiancée is right by my side and life is pretty darn good right now. Of course, there is work to be done, that goes without saying almost (so why did I say it?) but all is well in my kingdom right now and for that blissful fact I give thanks.

In politics nothing is new. The left is hypocritical, the right indignant and I would not trust either faction to tell me the time of day. But hey, who cares? Right?

Medical matters matter

After a life time of accompanying family member to hospitals and doctor's surgeries, it may come as small suprise that I do not really enjoy medical trivia or hospital visits. But life is life and some times you just need to get on with things, there is no other way at times, I think you know the score. A family member recently had to undergo a knee reconstruction and she is recovering very well for which we are very grateful indeed, that is only to be expected. She had the procedure carried out in a private hospital and she had a good standard of care, something for which we are equally thankful.

But operations such as these do not always go according to plan unfortunately. Imagine having to lodge a DePuy Hip Replacement lawsuit or some other legal suit. For many people that is also a reality that they have to face. Life sure is tricky sometimes and although you would not want to pursue every avenue in the case of a grievance or complaint generally, medical matters are too important to just ignore. If you do you could make a big mistake and you do not really want to take any chances with your health, now do you?

Beaches

I love Sydney and I love her beaches. My favourite so far, and that may well change as I get to know more, is Manly Beach. People rave about Bondi but I prefer taking the slow ferry to Manly and watching the waves of the Pacific roll in. It is a joy to see the surfers do their thing and just chill out whilst riding the waves on their sleek boards. It is quite a life style, I have to admit, that much is certain. Sydney, sun and the ocean, that is my sort of thing, it's official. Now I'm off to the beach with my bucket and spade. Here I go!

Depts

As we speak I am entertaining the plumber who has come round to fix our blocked drains. Flaming heck. We had some trouble with the pipes recently and he came out and spent a few hours digging up the drains round the back of the property. All very annoying. We live at the ground floor of a small apartment block and apparently it is always the ground floor that cops the clogged drains. Lucky us indeed! But he is a good bloke and I am sure he will fix the problems we are having. He turned up early as well which is good so it hopefully should not be too long. Here's hoping!

Investing, the right way

You will of course realise that there is a huge number of superb opportunities to invest out there in the market place. After all I think that goes without saying. However I believe we can also assert that some investments are more secure than some others, all things considered and at the end of the day. But that is just my opinion, let’s face it dear readers. What is more, some investment options are also more fun to be dealing with would you believe it.

Consider for instance the idea of investing in gold coin. Collecting gold coins is fun and a great sound investment. But, I hear you say: where to start? Where to begin this exciting pursuit? This is where the United States Gold Bureau can help you out big time. They have amazing staff all ready to help you. They can help you build up an outstanding investment portfolio. Check them out and you will see what I mean. It makes sense, you will see.

Become an investor in gold bullion and never look back. You really cannot beat it for a sound investment commodity. We all know of the durability and reliability of gold bullion as an investment. That is simply how sound it is from whichever way you look at it. You know it makes sense

City

Just spent the last few days showing my family from overseas around our beautiful city. We took them on the Manly Ferry and had a superb meal at Darling Harbour with a view of the fireworks of the Latin Festival that was being held there. It was wonderful to show off our great town to my family and they loved every minute of it I think. We also showed them Bondi Beach which they loved very much as well.

Now they're off travelling around the country and I hope they'll have a great time seeing Australia up close. Ripper!

Visit

My lovely niece and her husband are visiting from overseas later in the week and I hope it will be a great trip for them. It will be great to see them again as it has been a few years and I miss my niece. She is sweet young woman and I am intending to make sure it will be a great visit to my new home town for them both. They got married not so long ago so it is also still a bit of a honeymoon for the young lovers, I reckon. I will be recommending they do the Sydney Harbour Bridge climb which is an amazing thing to do when you find your self in our fair city. Lots of fun, that is for sure.

Footie

We just had the NRL grand finale last week. It was sort of exciting as it clearly meant so very much to an awful lot of people around Sydney. I was sorry the Tigers weren't in the finale as that would have been my local team. But it's a funny sort of sport is rugby league. Apart from the odd try here and there I find it quite boring. Blokes endlessly running into other blokes, and some wrestling to the ground. Then they get up and do the exact same thing all over again. And again. And again. There doesn't seem to be that much skill involved so I think I prefer rugby union and soccer to be honest.

Golden dreams of plenty

Well, are hobbies just for the geeks who shall inherit this earth? Of course not, we all know full well that there are a lot of people out there who have hobbies and who enjoy spending their valuable leisure time engaged with them. Some other people have strong passions they cannot live without. These leisurely pastimes or free time pursuits can involve a huge range of interests and activitities. There are those that enjoy collecting postal stamps, some go for long bracing hikes in the countryside, yet others simply love reading and writing and so on and so forth ad infinitum.

On the other hand, a hobby or personal interest can at times be rather lucrative as well. For instance, if you are into buying and selling gold coin you could really be on to a winner, make no mistake. Experts in rare coins such as for instance United States Gold Bureau can present you with superb opportunities that are available for you on the gold coin market as we speak. Let me just assure you that this could be well worth looking into and it may well prove to be very profitable as well. Do check it out right now!

Rainy city

The city was a rainy conglomerate and so unlike my sunny seaside metropole. I hope it clears up soon as we have some family members coming over from abroad for a visit. Hopefully we can show them around our fair city with a bit of sunshine to brighten up things for us. That would be nice, for to be sure. Meanwhile, work is work and it keeps me out of mischief, or so they say, don't they? I thought they did. Just tell me if they didn't, I won't mind. Descending into gibberish again, are we? Looks like it. Signing off now..more later.
