| Introduction | Frugal Boganista is a reasonably intelligent Scottish-Australian woman. After 20+ years working in finance & customer service, chronic illness forced her out of the workforce. Months of boredom, a moment of lunacy & the inability to say no to a freebie led her enroll in TAFE College to study Nail Technology. Although she quickly learned that she LOATHED artificial nails, the praise she received for her nail art & massage encouraged her to completely re-train & enroll in Beauty Services (specialising in Make-up Artistry), finally re-awakening her creativity from its lengthy hiatus. Frugal Boganista is mother to The Boy Wonder (a human) and his canine companion, Sir Sethington of Berkshire (BARKshire). She lives in South Australia and is single with absolutely no desire to be otherwise. |
