A Thumb Down
It is not often that I get to watch the Greek God(zilla) in all his finest cricketing action. I have listened patiently while he has regaled many a dinner guest about the time he scored 50 runs in…
Death by Chocolate
It all started with chocolate cake. At the time, such a small and insignificant decision but no-one was to know the chain of events that were to follow. We had invited Yiayia and Uncle George…
Wakey Wakey
When Croatia were knocked out of the Euro 2012 football tournament last week, I breathed a sigh of relief and awaited the return of the Greek God(zilla) to the fold. He’d been in Poland for…

Around this time last year, Zachy had his first sleepover at Yiayia’s house while the Greek God(zilla) whisked me 20-mins up the road to the Richmond Hill Hotel for a bit of R&R. Zachy loved…
A Tale of Two Poos
The Greek God(zilla) had to deal with a floater in the bath on two occassions last week. TWO. Not his own, I might add. He was toilet trained a long, long, time ago and hardly…
