Style Queen vs HM The Queen (AKA: Getting to...
@Queen_UK is my favourite parody account on Twitter at the moment. Her Majesty cracks me up every time she tweets. So I felt exceedingly honoured when she agreed to answer a few ‘getting to know…’ questions for my blog.

Valentines Gift Guide
You love it, you love it not. You love it, you love it not… Love it or hate it, Valentines Day is rolling around again. Do you prance through February 14 sending boxes of roses to your besties and blowing kisses to strangers. Or do you spend the day hiding under your couch cushions working your way through a box of tissues, a box of chocolates and a bumper box set of rom-coms. Anyone up for...

Each theme is linked to a special date on the calendar somewhere around the world, like this...
WatchLast week I had the chance to catch up with some of Tennis Australia’s HotShots kids. I have to say I felt quite at home. Being a Minogue, the mini tennis court fit ‘just-right’! The kids were great though I have to say I think they took it easy on me when they saw my level of experience. I was blaming the wind (it was really windy, as you’ll hear from the video), the net waving about...
On my bike!
I’m proud to report that I am now a ‘road warrior’ having finally hit the streets on the bike Kris bought me for my birthday. (Well, in my mind I’m a road warrior, but really I’m just a mum on a bike!)
I used to ride all the time – I’ve still got the scars from childhood prangs to prove it. But I haven’t done any riding since the days when my brother Brendan used...
Anyone for tennis?
It’s Australian Open tennis season Down Under and I don’t mind admitting that, until this year, my participation in tennis was strictly confined to the spectator seats in Rod Laver Arena. That is until Tennis Australia sent Ethan a mini tennis kit for Christmas!
It’s the equipment used in their Tennis HotShots participation program for kids – technically aged 10 and under -...
