Did you know that nearly all babies, whatever race are born Blue…?

Blood is never blue.  Blood is always red. But sometimes it is a different shade of red depending on the oxygen levels present, but always red.  Often it is shown in diagrams as being blue to symbolize the un-oxygenated blood which is really a dark red almost purple in colour.  Veins take on the appearanceRead More

So me a Jude hit it hard last night. Football was on, so we had quite a few bottles each. Man that boy can drink, he was on it all night and early hours. Hope he’s feeling OK this morning. Oh dear I think he may have a little bit of a hangover. Well he’sRead More

Nina Kennett

She calls our name and we come running, We have lost the voice we listened to, And there's a stillness now the rains stopped falling, And there's a sadness like we never knew, But we still see the shining of things. We love and miss you desperately Ni.

About Brian

I have worked in Telecommunications pretty much all my life, with good fortune to have worked literally across the world with amazing colleagues and clients from Sao Paulo, to Chicago, to LA, to UK, Europe and most recently to South East Asia and Australia.

I love to cook and to write and again for many years now have been writing a food blog, constantly morphing. I have also written a cook book for charitable reasons. I now also write a column for EXMag.sg a men's magazine with a focus on food - recipes and reviews. I do this under the tag-name of Semi-Naked Chef.

I am very focused at charitable work and CSR - having visited Cambodia 6 years running now to build houses on stilts for the less fortunate people there.

I have 3 kids - 2 half-Japanese and 1 half-Filipino.
