• To marks from me!

  Gaydar

  08 January 2004

  Has revolutionised the way gay men communicate and make contact with each other and has created an entirely new community destroying old barriers and being truly inclusive. If there has ever been a concept that has allowed the rise in self esteem and self image of gay men this is definitely it. Top marks from me!

• The best airline frequent flyer programme

  Star Alliance

  08 January 2004

  Star alliance is simply the best airline frequent flyer programme, creating a truly world wide network of coverage for travellers that encourages brand loyalty amongst a collection of different companies with similar levels of service.

• No nonsense claims

  Kiehl's

  08 January 2004

  Kiehl's is the unsung hero of men's skin care products. Simple packaging with straight forward descriptions and no nonsense claims of being a "fountain of youth." For me, instrinically linked with REMO general store, as I simply couldn't live without it.

• Without hiccup

  Apple

  28 May 2004

  I've owned 3 personal computers in my life...none (except my latest - a PowerMac G4) lasted without hiccup for more than a year before a total system restore was needed combined with the loss of thousands of irreplaceable files. I was so confident of Apple Mac's abilities, I threw away my Stereo, TV, Video recorder (and about half a dozen different remote controls) and combined the package in the best purchase I have ever made in my life. The Mac has revolutionisd the way my partner and I live, work and play. When there is a media alert about a computer virus threat, now I just simply smile and hug the monitor! I do not think it possible that I will ever purchase another brand of computer.

• A promise kept

  BMW

  28 May 2004

  I fell in love with BMW as a teenager and promised myself one day... one day... Well im happy to say the first BMW I ever bought is now 22 years old, and has lost none of its appeal to me. It is still the finest car to drive, and a design classic that will never date. BMW states sheer driving pleasure - And if I sit in my car or a newer BMW model, the fact remains... nothing will ever satisfy me more than knowing that I have kept a promise to myself, and BMW theirs.

• I hope we can grow old together

  REMO General Store

  10 June 2004

  I came of age and moved into my first apartment at the same time REMO General Store opened It's doors for the first time in Darlinghurst Sydney. People always said that REMO was 10 years ahead of its time, and was sorely missed when they were forced to shut the (original) store down... When Remo reinvented the concept via the internet and later the store in Bondi, I was back like a shot to replace all my dearly loved (and thread-bare) Items. I grew up with Remo and I hope we can grow old together.
