| Introduction | I call myself a Public Transport Systems Interrogator. The Translink Ripoff is how we help people who are rightly angry at the messed up system in South East Queensland. For media inquiries please contact me on 0449 180 465. We prefer questions to be emailed in advance. I'm also a maker of found object lamps. I have a small business called 'Lamp It Up!' through which I share my love and knowledge of upcycling and sustainable design. I have a diverse bunch of blogs that might be of interest. Just check my profile to explore. |
