Reading Time: 5 minutes It’s over! What’s over? The Mr Perth Bear competition for 2021! I competed! I didn’t win, but that’s ok. Because the person who did win deserved to win. Actually, they all deserved to win if I’m being completely honest. If I had to make a choice as to who should have won, other than picking …
Reading Time: 6 minutes The reason I’m writing this is because at the time of writing, I have a couple of friends who are not speaking with me for various reasons.
