Feeeling a little Blue?
It’s that time of year again when my husband reaps the benefits of his wife working at RedBalloon. This year we took a more relaxed approach and for Chris’s birthday we experienced the Sydney Luxury Getaway for 2- Overnight Delight at Woolloomooloo Wharf.

Catch me if you can
It’s Friday in the RedBalloon office and there are a few sore and sorry bodies hobbling about. No, we didn’t spend a night on the town cutting up the dance floor like maniacs, we mastered the flying trapeze! Ok, so “mastered” may be overstating it. But for two hours yesterday afternoon ten of us – [...]
Love is in the air with a RedBalloon proposal
On a sunny afternoon in September, in a land not too far from here – North Sydney – a young man proposed to the love of his life, flanked by red balloons! What was initially thought to be an entry for the RedBalloon 10th Birthday Photo Competition, turned out to be a real life love [...]
