The Rocks Photography Tour
(02) 9427 9636/0417 482 473
I gave my Grandmother a photograph for Christmas a few years ago and each time I visit her I cringe. The happy snap really isn’t so happy on account of my ex sticking his mug in the frame. But I’m no pro with a camera so I haven’t been able to replace the shot. Perhaps I should pop along to the Rocks Photography Tour and learn from the masters. I think I’ll wait until I know my beau is serious this time to save me from having to Photoshop out another ex in a few months time.

Bar-Be School
1300 227 745
My Dad thinks he can cook a barbie and if you like charcoal, you’re welcome to join him for a weekly Sunday fry up. But if you want to get it right, the team at Bar-Be School offer a much safer option. They run classes for those yet to master a set tongs and whether you’re a meat eater or a pesky pescatarian – like me - there’s a class for you. They say gals are attracted to blokes who remind them of their Dad so chances are my future beau will need some training and I know exactly where to take him.
