Projectors For Sale in Australia
Whether you’re a home theater buff or just want to watch movies with friends, there are plenty of great projector deals in Australia. You can also use a projector for gaming, with some featuring fast refresh rates and low input lag settings.
Home cinema projectors have come a long way from the clunky, dim models of old. They’re now brighter, more discreet and easier to set up. Most people are curious to have branded projectors but wait for the best offer. If you are one of them, you must check out the popular projectors for sale deal now.
Before that let’s have a few ideas on some of the leading projector brands with models.
Samsung Premier Smart Laser Projector
Bring the big screen home with cutting edge triple laser technology and 4K resolution for incredible contrast and detail. This ultra-short throw projector is designed to be positioned inches away from the wall and still deliver a massive 120-inch image.
It’s easy to connect this UST projector to your home network and access a range of apps including Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ and Apple TV. It also supports AirPlay so you can mirror your smartphone’s display on the screen.
The Premiere has several image modes to choose from, including a FilmMaker mode that disables any processing algorithms for a more realistic picture. This mode is great for movies and can complement the HDR capabilities of this device.
ViewSonic PX701HDH
This projector is a great option for home use, with its 3500 ANSI lumens and Full HD 1080p resolution. It also features a long lamp life and an IPS panel for accurate color reproduction. Its vColorTuner feature lets you create and update your own color profiles, making it easy to adjust the colors to your preferences.
It offers a wide range of connectivity options, including dual HDMI ports that can support any HDMI-enabled multimedia device. You can also connect a wireless HDMI dongle to stream media content. The AV input can also be used to connect a Blu-Ray player or gaming console. It also has a vertical lens shift for flexible placement.
RCA 480p LCD Projector
RCA offers simple, inexpensive projectors for home use. They are easy to set up and can accept a range of input devices. However, they tend to make more noise than other projectors and may not last as long as a high-end model.
They work well for watching movies and videos in the living room or backyard. They also work well for decorating cakes and cookies with stencil-like images or displaying spooky imagery at Halloween parties. Some models even include a standard Roku stick, which makes them a convenient choice for streaming content. Their LED projection lamp has a 50,000-hour estimated life, which is more than the lifetime of most other cheap projectors.

Transform your living room or bedroom into a home theater with this projector. It can display a huge image of up to 300 inches, depending on the projection distance. This device features accurate color representation and provides stunning clarity.
You can mirror movies and photos from your smartphone to the big screen wirelessly thanks to advanced 5G Wi-Fi that transmits images three times faster than 2.4G models. The U9 also comes with an illuminated keypad that makes it easier to use in the dark.
This model features a focus control that helps you fine-tune the image and +-50deg 4D keystone correction technology for standard rectangular images. This means you won't have to spend time recalibrating the picture.

When looking for a projector, look at its lumen rating to ensure it provides enough brightness for your needs. It’s also important to check the color accuracy and gamut coverage ratings so that your pictures look accurate and vivid.
NexiGo PJ40
The NexiGo PJ40 provides an immersive movie-viewing experience. The LCD projector has a 1920 x 1080 native resolution and 600 ANSI lumen brightness to display crystal-clear images. It also has an adjustable keystone correction feature that can correct distorted image angles.

I am not sure you are taking requests or not, but I got this idea and I really wished you could write something for it, 'about Eisuke falling in love with his secretary and make it a bit dramatic'. I know it may be a lot to ask but all your written works have been so beautiful, I just had to ask you. No problem if you couldn't do it :).
Hi there! I’m so glad you sent a request! Yes my requests are open, I only just realised that I haven’t put it anywhere on my blog that they are open... oops! Anyway, I’ve never written a secretary story before so this was definitely a challenge, thanks to @flatsuke and @leoamber66 for helping me find a solid plot to use. And thanks to @lin-ful for just being amazing! This story is 8000+ words so that’s why it took some time to get this to you. I hope this is what you wanted, if not I hope you at least appreciate the time and effort I took to writing this. Enjoy!
Keep Me By Your Side
They say patience is a fool’s game. Waiting for love will weigh your heart down heavily like an anchor in the ocean. But saying ‘I love you’ to Eisuke Ichinomiya will get you nowhere fast. What does he know about love? Kindness? Happiness?
He was young when he was made CEO of the Ichinomiya Group. He was even younger when he lost his mother to the scythe of death, when he lost his sister to a different, better, whole, and lovable family. When he lost his father to the mist of uncertainty. What could a man filled with emptiness from a traumatic childhood, know about love?
He’s arrogant but he’s suave. A businessman through and through. Ruthless and cunning. Intelligent and sarcastic. Sweet-toothed with hidden compassion. A passionate hater of peas. A wonderful smile when he is genuine. And believe me, I have only ever seen this smile once in my whole career.
He never gets drunk and he spends more time at his auctions than with women. No woman other than me has stayed longer than a night at his penthouse. No other woman knows that Eisuke prefers warm weather to cold. No other woman knows how he likes his coffee: sweet using three sugar cubes and milk. I still remember the first time I made him coffee.
‘It’s adequate.’
‘Really?!’
‘Do it again. It needs more milk.’
‘Okay!’
I remember when he told me about his life. I remember his touch when he wiped away dewy tears. Telling me that it was a long time ago. That he just wants the truth. Closure.
That’s why, as his secretary, I have to be there for him. Because Mr Ichinomiya, founder, and owner of the Tres Spades Hotels around the globe, the mastermind behind the black market auctions and my boss, has brought me down to my knees…
In love.
I am in love with Eisuke Ichinomiya.
I want to shout it out to the world.
Scream it at the top of my lungs as if his name is my breath.
But I can’t.
Because I am only his secretary.
*
‘Here’s your schedule for today. After lunch, you have a meeting with a potential investor for the new Tres Spades Restaurants. He wants to propose different menus and VIP arrangements plus staff requirements for the restaurant in Sydney, Australia.’ I hand Eisuke his tablet and a folder filled with paperwork.
‘Hm. And the auctions?’
‘All set. Baba is still looking for the specific item that you requested but we have plenty of other materials to sell tonight. Soryu has sent the invitations and Mamoru will get back to you about the increasing police activity here lately. And Ota… well he’s being Ota.’
‘Pfft, of course he is.’ Eisuke looks up at me.
‘And Luke?’
‘He nearly fondled my collarbones… again. But he is ready to proceed with the surgery this week.’
Eisuke narrows his eyes at me.
‘Tell Luke to come see me before then. And you know better than to visit Luke immediately after a surgery.’
I rub the back of my head nervously.
‘Well, you told me to see him right away so… I was just following orders.’ Eisuke sighs in response.
‘Oh! And Luke told me to tell you that he needs another x-ray of your collarbones.’
‘Why? I already gave him one a few months ago.’ The annoyance is written all over his features.
‘Because he left it in the other clinic in New York. Luke doesn’t have an x-ray here in Tokyo.’
He unconsciously pouts at his laptop screen.
‘Isn’t one enough?’
‘Apparently not…’ It takes everything in me not to stroke his head to comfort him.
‘What about your collarbones?’
‘When we got back, while you were still in London, Luke did a medical examination on me so he got an x-ray of mine.’
‘Remind me to ban him from using the x-ray machine.’ I reply with a giggle instead of words.
‘Vivian.’ He says with urgency.
I salute military style.
‘Yes sir!’
‘… You would make a clumsy soldier.’
‘Hey!’
‘If there’s nothing else, get me coffee and leave.’
I bow and attend to my duties. After giving Eisuke his coffee, I head down to the lobby to find Mr Kenzaki. The lobby is busy as always with staff running around attending to the whims of the guests. New guests checking in and old guests leaving satisfied by their stay. The Tres Spades never disappoints.
I spot Mr Kenzaki by the reception. I catch his eye and he walks towards me by the penthouse elevator.
‘Ah Vivian, is there something you need?’
‘Yes, the Boss will need the conference room after lunch. We will need it for a few hours.’
‘Of course, I will have it set up. Do you need the projector?’
I think for a moment.
‘I’m not entirely sure but set it up anyway. Better to have it on and not use it, than need it when it’s off.’
He smiles warmly at me.
‘I understand. I am glad to see that you have become a capable and worthy secretary to Mr Ichinomiya.’ I blush at his teasing words.
‘Thank you. But we both know that Boss would choose you over me any day of the week.’
‘Haha, I’m not quite sure he is that attached.’ I highly doubt that actually, but I don’t tell him that.
‘The guest is Mr Lance and he will be arriving in a few hours. Make sure the lobby is prepared. Boss and I will come down to greet him.’
‘Very well. Make sure to take breaks every now and again Vivian.’
‘Yes, I will.’ Mr Kenzaki has always been obedient and thoughtful. I admire his dedication to Eisuke and the others plus he was a huge help to me when I first started working at the Tres Spades. He’s almost like an uncle or a grandfather (I’m sorry Mr Kenzaki! I promise you’re still young!) to me and the others.
I return to the elevator, swipe my key card, press no. 51 and watch the metal doors close. Turning around, I watch the outside world grow smaller and smaller as the elevator pulls up. There was a time when I was bewildered by the sheer size of this hotel. Over 50 floors of suites and boutiques and shops and the auctions all bundled into one.
Funnily enough, I worked with Eisuke’s adopted father, Akira Ichinomiya before I came to work for Eisuke. Akira took me in when I was first starting out in business and he taught me the ropes. He introduced me to Eisuke a little after Akira retired and, although he retired, he still worked within the Ichinomiya Group to make things a little easier for Eisuke. We met a few times over the years before Akira decided to send me to Japan to work for Eisuke as his secretary instead. I was more than miffed to hear of his decision without consulting me, especially since we had gotten so close with each other. I lost my grandfather when I was young so Akira ended up filling in that void.
Akira assured me that Eisuke would teach me more about how the Ichinomiya Group runs and I couldn’t say more. With my salary increased and bags packed, I got into the private jet and waited to see my new boss.
Looking back, I think I put up a bit too much of a fuss because Eisuke became a wonderful teacher, and a great friend. He listened to me and my problems even though he never needed to.
‘I have to make sure that my employees are at their best. Physically and mentally. Hearing your small problems is nothing to the value you are as my secretary.’
His words back then bring a whole new meaning to me now. I hope he means them in the way that I think they mean. That he cares about me.
A vibration courses through me as my pager goes off. I pluck it out of my belt and answer it.
‘Hello?’
‘Vivian! Where are you? Come to the penthouse! I have something to show you!’ Baba’s excited voice reminds me of a child but I wait to see what he has in store.
*
‘Ta da!’ Baba’s jazz hands do nothing to appease the sight.
A large statue of Venus towers over us all as we gape at it.
‘How did you get it in here?’ I ask, bewildered.
‘That’s a secret.’
‘Did you break it in half?’ Ota asks next.
‘No! This is priceless!’
‘Then how did you bring it into the lounge?’ Soryu says.
‘That is also a secret!’
‘He used the helicopter and the window.’ Mamoru mumbles from the couch.
‘Oooooohhhhhh’ Ota and I say at the same time. Baba pouts in response.
‘Mamo! Don’t go giving away my secrets!’
‘That’s not my job. That’s Ayase‘s job.’
‘This isn’t what I asked for Baba.’ Eisuke glares at him after inspecting the statue.
‘Ah yes, well. The item belongs to a Mr Jason Taylor Lance. I believe his father is coming to the hotel today.’
‘He is.’ I say.
‘Fine, I’ll get it from him instead.’
‘What is this thing you’re looking for anyway Eisuke?’ Ota asks.
‘It’s a collection of gems found at a temple in Egypt. Rumours of the gems suggest that a whole manner of good things will happen to those who possess them. I figured they would go for a very high price at the auctions.’ Eisuke smirks.
‘They were unearthed a few years ago and have found their way to Japan.’ Eisuke explains. Baba sighs.
‘Well I need more time to find the exact location.’
‘Fine.’
‘Ota can you appraise the statue for me?’
‘Okay.’ He goes back to his room while I prepare coffee and tea. When he comes back, he puts on white rubber gloves and uses a magnifying glass around the statue. I check my emails, replying to some and deleting others when Ota quips:
‘It’s fake.’
‘WHAT! Are you sure!?’
‘Yeah. It was created with cheap materials. An amateur’s work.’ He says it in such a matter-of-fact tone that I don’t comprehend it for a moment.
‘You would never know just looking at it.’
‘Yeah but if you sell it then the person buying it would most likely be an art collector and they appraise everything.’ He sits down and takes out his phone.
‘Unlucky Baba. Just like your sex life.’
‘Hey!’
‘Baba take that thing out.’ Eisuke orders.
‘Alright, alright. Sor help me out.’
‘Why me?’ Soryu and Baba heave the statue out of the penthouse.
*
Eisuke and I have lunch and then we venture out to the lobby. Just as we exit the elevator, Mr Lance enters the hotel. He is a big man wearing a white suit and a silver chain around his neck. His bald head shines in the glow of the lights and I can hear his shoes squeak against the marbled floor. He spots us and smiles.
‘Mr Lance, I am glad you could make it.’ Eisuke plasters on his signature business smile, holds his hand out for a shake and I bow from beside him.
‘Eisuke, please call me Connor. If we are going to be business partners, we should at least start with first names.’ He wraps both Eisuke and I in a bear hug and I nearly gag from the heavy cologne smell. Mr Lance is overly-friendly and I can already tell that this meeting is going to be a long one.
When he lets us go, Eisuke straightens his suit.
‘Please follow me to the conference room.’ Eisuke walks away while I turn to Mr Lance.
‘Shall I carry your briefcase for you, sir?’ I ask politely.
‘Of course, please.’ He looks at me for a moment. During my time as Eisuke’s secretary, I have met many individuals who have looked at me in inappropriate ways but Eisuke is always there to make it clear my place by his side. Still, I always stand my ground. Even now, as Mr Lance studies my face when he suddenly gestures to the case on the floor and follows Eisuke.
I’m not sure what that look was on his face but something tells me that this meeting will twist horribly.
*
‘Of course the staff will be perfect in their presentation but I believe that…’
Mr Lance, despite his ‘we-should-use-first-names’ greeting, is actually quite the businessman. He and Eisuke have been discussing the chain of Tres Spade restaurants and how to profit the most without hindering their guest’s experience.
‘The Tres Spades always delivers in high quality standards. Our guests and what they desire are our top priority.’
‘I have no doubt. Reviews of your hotels are 100% which I completely agree with. But if we could…’
Although, they are at a stale-mate right now. Neither is willing to backdown which is making me nervous. Mr Lance is more insistent on getting his way and so is Eisuke.
‘Sir?’ I finally pipe up from my corner in the room.
‘Hm?’ Eisuke looks at me.
‘May I suggest something?’
‘I hope you do not mind.’ Eisuke says to the man opposite him.
‘Please, a second opinion is always valuable.’ Mr Lance says, nodding in my direction.
‘Well, I suggest that the guests are given a form to personally write down any changes they want or need to the menus. This way, waiters will be more efficient obtaining orders and will limit any commotion that may arise.’
‘Paper forms will get lost or damaged very quickly in a kitchen.’ Eisuke says.
‘Hm, electronic tablets? With the entire menu and a writing stylus or Bluetooth keyboard to use.’
‘The keyboard would be too bulky on a table for guests.’
‘Why not use both? Paper and technology alike. Reservations will need specifications on which apparition the guests would like to use. Spontaneous guests first arriving will be asked immediately before seating if they require the keyboard or stylus.’ Mr Lance suggests.
‘That would be agreeable for me.’ Eisuke says.
‘I also.’ Mr Lance responds.
I breath a quiet sigh of relief. Mr Lance looks at me again before turning to Eisuke.
‘Before I sign this contract, I would like to add something to this.’
‘Such as?’
‘You see, I have a son, who I assume is the same age as your secretary?’
I glance at Eisuke briefly before saying hesitantly, ‘I am 28 years old, sir.’
‘Ah perfect! I have a son who could use a woman like you by his side.’ At those words, both Eisuke and I look at each other. He glares at Mr Lance who does not seem to notice.
‘You are an impeccable woman. In just a few hours, I have seen your beauty, your perfect manners and now your incredible intelligence as a woman working in the business sector of society. I believe you would be a wonderful wife to my son and an even better daughter-in-law to my wife and I.’
‘What are you suggesting, Mr Lance?’ Eisuke could be a snake he spat out those words so viciously.
Mr Lance does not break eye contact with Eisuke. Actually, it seems as if he is not intimidated at all by Eisuke, which, despite his words, is impressive.
‘I will sign this contract. Only if your secretary agrees to marry my son.’
‘That is outrageous, as if I would agree to such a thing.’
‘I am not asking you, Mr Ichinomiya. I am asking her.’
There is so much tension in the air that I can see it. Literally. So if I don’t agree, Mr Lance will walk out of the project. But if I do… While there are other investors, Mr Lance has a large influence on the economy, just as much as Eisuke does. He’s too important to deny.
Maybe I should convince him to sign without the marriage?
‘If I may, Mr Lance, I am hardly worthy of being part of your family. I have no wealth which you would consider rich, neither do I have many connections or the reputation to be married into your family. The public and the media would, quite frankly, have a field day about this marriage which could result in backlash on your family and mine. Please, reconsider this.’ I think half way through, my reasoning became a plea.
‘My secretary has never met your son and neither have I. She has worked for me and my company for years. Her well-being is my responsibility.’
Mr Lance thinks over our arguments calmly, as if he has done this a hundred times to other employers and their employees.
‘Very well. Why don’t I have my son stay at the hotel for a week? They can get to know each other and when she agrees to the marriage, then I will sign the contract. Until then,’ he pushes the folder away, ‘I will not sign. This is final.’
He gets up, leaving his business card, and walks out whistling to himself.
* (EISUKE’S POV)
‘That bastard really believes that he can have whatever he wants just because I need him to invest in the project.’
‘Did he really ask you for Vivian’s hand in marriage?’
‘To his son?’
‘…..’ I don’t answer, I only glare at Baba and Ota who hide behind Vivian and Soryu.
Mr Lance has attempted something that I have never seen in my whole career. A marriage proposal during a business deal? Mixing his personal life with his work is extremely amateur for a man who has been in business for over 30 years.
‘That man’s head must have a few screws loose.’ Mamoru says in an exasperated tone.
‘So what did you say Vivian?’ Ota asks.
‘Well, I tried to tell him that I wouldn’t be a good match for his family but he wouldn’t listen to us. His son is going to be staying in the hotel and I have to attend to him.’ She says, clutching her tablet to her chest.
‘Eisuke, what is he planning?’ Soryu is right to be suspicious. Even I believe that there is something amiss here.
‘Soryu, Mamoru, find out everything you can about this man and the Lancer’s Group.’
‘Lancer’s Group?’
‘Mr Lance’s last name turned into-‘
‘A joke.’ Mamoru finishes her sentence. ‘What do you want to know?’
‘Criminal records, illegal activity, anything. Baba see if you can find something in their estates. I want to know what they have in their possession.’
‘Uh, okay Boss…’
‘Ota I want to know what the public think about the Lance family.’
‘Sure.’
I get up from the couch and head to the stairs leading to my penthouse suite.
‘Eisuke, what about the auctions tonight?’
‘The IVC and the auctions will continue as usual. Vivian, coffee.’ I say before turning around and ascending the stairs. I hear Vivian’s high heels against the floor as she rushes to me.
As soon as I get inside, I sit at my office desk and begin researching. If the Lancer Group is as influential as the Ichinomiya Group, they will have more than a few skeletons in their closets. The smell of coffee fills the room as she makes my daily beverage. For a second, I suddenly imagine Vivian making coffee for someone else. Mr Jason Taylor Lance. With his hands on her hips and his lips at her neck, attempting to distract her from leaving. It disgusts me that another man besides me would have Vivian by his side.
I feel myself get up from my chair and wander to Vivian quickly. She pours milk and three sugar cubes into the mug. Her waist feels small in my hands. The hair on her head smells like argan oil. Vivian is actually a small woman, her head is just below my shoulders with high heels on. Her long dark hair is straight with a braided crown around the back of her head. She wears a black suit and a purple blouse plus I notice the thin platinum band around her right ring finger that I gave her when we first met.
I hear her gasp at my touch and she turns around in my arms. Her eyes are wide open with her eyebrows raised.
‘Eisuke?’
Eisuke. She usually says my name when we’re alone. When she’s in work mode, she calls me Boss, like Baba unfortunately, but I still remember how casually she said it the first time.
‘Eisuke, you’ve been working for hours. Take a break for a few minutes, please? What will I do if you faint from exhaustion?’
My hands cup her chubby face. Her trembling fingers hold onto my hands. The only man I see reflecting in her eyes, is me.
I can’t imagine being without Vivian.
Wait. What am I thinking? Or rather what am I doing?!
I let go of her face and turn to leave the room. Her short arms suddenly wrap around my waist as she desperately holds on.
‘Eisuke, I don’t want to leave you.’ Her whisper is enough for me.
But why do I care so much for her? Have I become attached to this woman? This woman who Akira introduced to me? The same shy, bubbly personality who has stuck by my side for more years than I can count? No one has survived as my secretary or assistant ever but Vivian has held on.
What am I feeling inside? This warmth in my chest?
*
The next day, we prepare for Mr Lance’s son’s appearance at the hotel. Jason Taylor is a famous model and fashion designer who is also known for his… drunk antics.
‘Soryu, make sure your men keep an eye on Taylor and Vivian while they are together. If he dares to make a move on her, I want them to intercept immediately.’
Soryu, sitting in the chair opposite my desk, rubs his head and sighs with exasperation.
‘Eisuke, my men are mobsters, not bodyguards.’
‘Soryu.’
‘I know, I know. I care about her too you know, we all do. She’s the only woman willing to stick by you and your peculiarities.’
‘….’
‘My men will watch out for her and will keep me and you updated on their activities.’
‘Good. Have you found anything incriminating?’
‘There is something. Apparently, the Lance’s have a secret operation in Brazil. It might be money laundering.’
‘Hm, have your men take it. If it is money laundering, the evidence will move the scales in my favour.’ We share a knowing look when Baba’s loud voice booms outside the office door.
‘Boss! He’s here! Come on out!’ I sigh and stand up.
‘Looks like His Highness is in your territory.’
‘We’ll see how long he can stay on his pedestal.’
Vivian meets us in the penthouse lounge. I gave her the morning off to mentally prepare herself for the work that she will have to do. She wears a different outfit that she wears for work which makes me feel better inside.
‘Hey Vivian, why are you wearing that?’ Ota asks. She looks down at her suit then to me.
‘Because I’m still working.’
‘But he’s going to be your fiancé, shouldn’t you greet him looking a little sexier or something appealing?’
‘If you’re so desperate for a fiancée, why don’t you go greet him?’ I spit out at Ota who frowns at me.
‘Baba, Eisuke’s being mean!’
‘You kind of deserved it Ota.’ Baba says.
‘Damn I’m tired. Can we get going now?’ Mamoru yawns.
‘Slacker.’ I hear Soryu mutter under his breath.
‘What you say!?’
‘That’s enough. Vivian.’ I turn to leave and hear Vivian follow. The others grumble along to see who has made an enemy out of me.
*
Just as the elevator doors open, we hear loud noises and women screaming. In the centre of all attention is JT Lance, a known critic, womaniser, drunkard and an exceptional model and designer. He was already at the top when he was born, but we’ll see how far down to the bottom he falls when I’m done with him.
He seems to be signing autographs on paper and magazines and on women’s bodies as well. Arms, hands, necks, chest, he’ll put his name anywhere. A typical celebrity. He wears a golden chain similar to his father and an open shirt revealing his body.
The lobby quietens down as I step out.
‘Oh, it’s the King!’
‘The King?’
‘Eisuke Ichinomiya?!’
The staff try to handle the guests as much as they can while I stride over to the man receiving his room key.
‘Mr Jason Taylor? It’s a pleasure to meet you.’ I smile at him and shake his hand.
‘Eisuke Ichinomiya, the pleasure is all mine! My dad says good things about you.’
‘Does he now?’ I highly doubt that considering our last encounter.
‘It’s a bit too crowded here to talk. Please follow me to the VIP lounge.’
‘Lead the way.’
In the lounge, JT sits making small talk with Ota and Baba while a female staff member serves drinks. I see her blush as JT winks at her from his spot on the couch.
‘Do you have any tips on how to attract women?’
‘Baba has trouble keeping a woman’s attention for more than a second.’ Ota quips.
‘Haha, the first thing a woman sees in a man is his fashion sense. And yours… is a little less than average.’
‘What?!’
‘You look a tomato with a head, hands and feet. You need to look more manly and dignified.’ He waves his arms around, looking a buffoon. Baba frowns, lost in thoughts.
‘I assume you wear that red… thing daily. Red is a passionate colour and bold to be worn in broad day light. But too much passion turns women off quicker than a light switch. A man should wear blues or purples, like Ota and Eisuke or that scary looking man over there.’ He points to Soryu whose face doesn’t change or move in the slightest.
‘… Um, even that man over there in the grey suit is more manly than you.’ He indicates at Mamoru who smokes at the window.
‘Hmmm, so I need to change my suit? But I love this suit…’ Baba mumbles to himself helplessly as Ota falls over laughing.
I feel Vivian fidget beside me as she gleans the man attempting to take her away from me. JT changes his focus to Vivian.
‘So, this woman is the secretary my dad told me about? What is your name? You are certainly a beautiful gem among the dirt. Have you tried modelling? I’m sure my designs would look stunning on you.’ His insult generates a glare but, like his father, he does not notice.
‘My name is Vivian Grier and I am certain that I am just an average looking woman, sir.’
‘Oh please, you would look divine! And call me JT, it would be plain weird if my future wife calls me so formally.’ I feel my eye twitch at his casual words.
‘She is not your wife yet.’
‘That will be her decision, will it not?’
The tension increases with each passing moment as we size each other up. But Vivian cuts it like a sword slashing in the air.
‘Um, JT why don’t I show you around the hotel? Then you can relax in your suite. I still have work to do unfortunately but we can have dinner tonight in the restaurant if you would like.’ Her suggestion does nothing to quell the fiery rage that is slowly growing inside me.
His smile sickens me to my core.
‘I would be delighted to have that. Ota why don’t you come as well, we can discuss some new designs I’ve created.’
‘Sure. Don’t worry, the old man beside me won’t be coming along.’
‘Hey!’ Baba shouts out as usual. The four of them leave but not before Vivian pats my shoulder and says,
‘I’ll back in the penthouse in a bit, try not to exhaust yourself too much before I arrive.' She smirks and winks at me before rushing to the others.
*
‘You’re going to do what!?’ The words I didn’t want to hear leave Vivian’s mouth so simply that I shout at her in front of the others in the lounge. She flinches but continues.
‘JT is going to check out of the hotel tomorrow, and I will go with him. I’m going to agree to the marriage and stay with his family at their mansion.’
I can only glare at her, trying to dispel the unshakable resolve in her eyes. But she doesn’t look away nor does she back down.
‘Why?’
‘You and I both know that there is something not quite right here. They’re hiding a corpse underneath all that fame and money and I’m going to find out what.’
‘…..’
‘I know you have been investigating. I’m sure you’ll find the evidence we need but do it before the wedding. I…. One day, I want it to be you and me at the alter Eisuke. Truly.’
My eyes widen. Is she confessing to me? Now?
‘Soryu? Can I take Ryosuke and Samejima with me? For protection and friends to accompany me?’
‘Of course, they will protect with their lives Vivian.’ He takes his phone out and leaves to prepare his puppy and shark.
Vivian turns to me.
‘Eisuke, if I find anything then I will send it to you. And I promise I’ll come back. Come back to you.’
Vivian stands in front of me as the strong woman I know she is. She’s doing what needs to be done.
‘Money laundering.’
‘Huh?’
‘We have evidence that the Lance family is money laundering. Find me something related to it or something else I can use.’ I say. We look at each other for a moment then she smiles at me.
‘Okay.’
‘Good luck Vivian. We’ll be here if you need us.’ Baba pats her shoulder.
‘Don’t get yourself killed.’ Ota says from the couch.
‘Kid, don’t go doing anything stupid now.’ Mamoru puffs on his cigarette.
‘Thank you guys. Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.’ She smiles and bows to us before turning around.
‘And Eisuke?’
‘What?’
‘On JT’s phone, I saw a message. It said… the body is ready to be disposed.’
‘A body?’
‘Mamoru get on this.’
‘Murder, huh?’
‘Well, he gives lousy advice on fashion anyway.’ Baba says.
‘He was right about your fashion sense though.’ Ota retorts.
‘Kid, send me that message as soon as you can.’
‘I’ll try.’ Vivian’s heels stride out of the lounge. Strong and confident, she leaves with my heart.
*
The engagement is called on TV. Mr Lance announces the engagement and we watch as Vivian and JT exchange rings.
‘Such a tacky ring.’ I mumble to myself.
‘Hey, what’s that silver ring on her other finger?’ Ota points to the monitor.
‘Boss, didn’t you give that to her a few years ago?’
‘Obviously. I have more class than he does in style.’ I smirk. So even on TV, she continues to belong to me.
‘Eisuke, Inui and Samejima have dropped Vivian off at the hotel. She’ll be here in a few minutes.’
‘Good.’ My fingers hover over the pager’s call button. It has been confirmed that the wedding will take place tomorrow. JT has booked the ballroom for a party and invited me to attend.
‘So they recorded this and sent it to the media everywhere huh?’ Ota asks.
‘Yes. It’s hard to believe that it’s been 2 weeks since Vivian left us.’
‘She hasn’t left us. As if Eisuke would let the kid go, not with her skills.’ Mamoru, who for once is not asleep, teases me.
‘You’re not snoozing, has the station finally fired you?’ Soryu retorts.
‘Stop it. You all are too noisy.’ I order before Mamoru can fight back.
‘How are the preparations for JT’s party tonight?’
‘Going as well as I can hope. I’ve called the media here to capture JT’s antics on screen.’
‘Seriously? Does he know?’
‘Even if he does he’s not shy to the camera. Everyone knows his drunk habits. I’ve ordered for security to be ready to take action against him if he tries something.’
‘Ota, Mamoru and I will be there as well so you can count on us Boss!’ Baba says with as much enthusiasm as a balloon.
‘Why do I have to be there?!’
‘Because the alcohol is for free. I won’t have to buy you any tonight.’
‘Fine. I guess I’ll go.’ Mamoru grumbles to himself by the window.
‘Hook, line, and sinker. Point 1 to Baba.’ He tips his ridiculous hat and winks at Mamoru who pretends to gag on his cigarette.
‘Sir?’ Kenzaki enters the lounge with the woman I’ve been expecting to see since she left.
‘Miss Vivian has returned.’ His smile tells me that he has been missing Vivian as much as the rest of us.
‘Hey everyo-‘
‘VIVIAN!’
‘THANK GOD!’
‘GET US COFFEE PLEASE!’
Vivian jumps behind Kenzaki as the three men throw themselves at her. It is true that we’ve been miserable without her coffee. We have been living off of room service and Soryu’s tea.
‘I can’t believe you guys really missed me that much. I was gone for 2 weeks!’ She hands out the mugs and I sniff the coffee. It smells wonderful and for once, everyone is quiet in the lounge.
‘Would you like some Mr Kenzaki?’ Vivian asks.
‘No thank you, you can make me some another time. I have some work to do so I will leave you to it.’ He strokes her head like a father and leaves.
‘Vivian, upstairs.’ Still holding my mug and picking up Vivian’s bag, I climb the stairs with her in tow.
We sit beside each other when she looks up and smiles before taking out her tablet.
‘Even though I’ve been away, I’m still your secretary Eisuke. I’ve responded to all your emails and contacted everyone involved with the project. Mr Lance is going to sign the contract tomorrow after the wedding and-‘
‘Are you okay?’ I ask.
‘Hm, what?’
‘Did he do anything to you?’
‘No, not really. Despite the engagement, he hasn’t touched me. I thought he was seeing other women since he keeps going in and out of the mansion but I think it’s something else.’
‘Yes, the coordinates Soryu’s puppy sent is an office. It’s filled with counterfeit money.’ Vivian, Inui and Samejima were able to gain the site of Mr Lance’s operations from JT’s car’s automatic navigation system. The Ice Dragons stormed the place with Soryu and found over $200 million in cash.
‘What do you think it’s for?’
‘It could for a number of things Vivian. People have a way of finding things to buy when they millions to spare. Be it an object or a person.’
‘Did Mamoru find out about… the body?’
‘We’re still looking into it, but I have a hunch.’
‘Which is?’
‘You’ll see.’
‘No fair!’ Vivian pouts at me and I pinch her cheeks.
‘Oww!’ She says it in a more playful tone, letting me know that she’s happy.
‘You’ve gotten thinner since you left.’
‘I guess I was lonely without you Eisuke.’ She takes my hands and wraps my arms around her.
‘I missed you, so much.’ She hugs me tight, listening to my rapid heartbeat.
‘How have you been Eisuke?’
‘Fine. It’s not as if I need you by my side all the time.’ Who am I kidding? Her giggles tell me that she doesn’t believe my lies either.
‘But you will always miss my coffee right?’ Her teasing words make me chuckle.
‘Your coffee has done wonders for me. Even if you didn’t stay as my secretary, I would have made you the penthouse maid.’
‘Haha, I’m sure you would have.’ She raises her head and looks up at me through her long lashes. When did she become so beautiful?
‘Eisuke…’ When did her voice become so enticing when she says my name? And what would she sound like at night, beneath me with her head thrown back in pure bliss?
But before my lips can touch her skin…
‘Boss! Are you ready?’
‘Damn it, that thief always has awful timing.’ I grumble as we untangle our limbs from each other.
‘Don’t worry Eisuke. I’ll still be here when you get back.’ She takes my face into her hands and leaves a kiss on my forehead.
‘You know I will always be here.’ We lean our heads against each other, savouring the feelings that we hold dear. I’ve never felt love for a woman before. It’s not a bad feeling though.
* (VIVIAN’S POV)
I change into my casual clothing and go downstairs to find not only Soryu with Ryosuke and Samejima, but also Luke in the lounge. The TV has been set up for us to watch the party on mute.
‘Hey you guys.’ I sit on the couch next to Luke and see Eisuke, Ota, Baba, and Mamoru at the party, mostly drinking at the bar.
‘Hey princess.’ Ryosuke waves. Samejima and Soryu both give me a nod.
‘Hello Sexy Bones.’ I smile at Luke.
‘Why aren’t you down there Soryu?’ I ask.
‘Too many women.’
‘Oh I see.’ Soryu hates women with a passion. Eisuke was surprised when Soryu said he didn’t mind me being here. Apparently, I’m not the type of women he hates.
‘Where’s JT?’ I ask, trying to spot him on the monitors.
‘Over there, speaking to one of the politicians.’ Luke points to the far corner. For a while we wait and see what happens. Eisuke speaks to various celebrities, all with that sly smile on his face, while Mamoru drinks at the bar. Baba and Ota flirt with the other women at the party.
It all seems pretty calm when I see JT suddenly throw a glass of champagne at a wall.
‘Uh oh.’
‘What the!?’
‘He’s drunk.’ Luke observes.
JT seems to shouting at a staff member. One whom I know as my friend, Sakiko.
‘He’s going to hit her!’ I shout. JT’s large fist is balled up in the air, ready to hit its target when Eisuke grabs his arm and pins it back. He forces JT to the ground and Mamoru cuffs his wrists.
‘Oh thank god!’ I sigh with relief as Sakiko is attended to by the other staff members. Eisuke seems to be addressing the guests as Mamoru and security push JT off the premises.
‘The media will love this.’ I say.
‘Eisuke knew this would happen, that’s why he called them in the first place.’ Soryu says, turning his attention to clean his gun.
‘Mr Ichinomiya looked so cool! Just like you sir!’ Ryosuke says, looking at Soryu with admiration.
‘Indeed, Eisuke’s collarbones looked splendid.’ Luke smiles and Ryosuke gives me a look of bewilderment. I laugh despite the situation we just witnessed.
‘Eisuke did look really cool out there.’
‘Maybe you should make him the new Ice Dragon’s leader.’ Luke says.
‘No.’ Both Luke and I burst out laughing with Samejima trying to hide his smile and Ryosuke looking even more bewildered.
When Eisuke came back to the penthouse, I said good night to the others and followed him upstairs to his bedroom. I hugged him tightly as soon as we entered him room.
‘I saw on the monitors. Thank you for saving Sakiko.’ I nuzzle my face into his chest.
‘Hm.’ I feel the slight vibration course through his body.
‘Eisuke?’
‘What?’
‘Seeing JT be so… violent… made me think. Do you think sacrificing my freedom, despite knowing his flaws, despite knowing that there is always the possibility that he could become violent with me, that he could hurt me and cause me pain and trauma that I might never recover from, if marriage is about accepting the faults of the partner you love, should I accept his flaws no matter how abusive he could be?’
‘No. Because even the slightest possibility could destroy more than just your body, but your heart too. People like JT are not worth more than the dirt under our shoes.’
Suddenly, Eisuke dips down and hooks his arm under my knees.
‘Ah! Eisuke!’ Wrapping my arms tightly around his neck, Eisuke throws me onto the bed and leans over me.
‘You’re still here though.’
‘I am.’
‘Are you going to leave?’ I look into his chocolate brown eyes. I can see my reflection in them so clearly. I feel my love for him bubbling up inside me.
‘Only if you force me to.’
‘Pfft, as if that would ever happen.’ His kiss is sweeter than any candy. It melts me at my core completely. That night, our hearts finally connect with one another. The moment that I have always wanted has been fulfilled. And before I pass out, I hear,
‘I promise, tomorrow, you will walk out as my woman. I will save you.’
*
Standing at the church doors, I breath in and out. Clutching a bouquet of hydrangeas, I think about last night. Eisuke promised that he would save me.
‘Go to the wedding tomorrow. I will be there and stop this madness.’
Akira comes up and turns me to face him.
‘Do not worry Vivian. Eisuke will give you a wedding surprise you won’t soon forget.’ His smile warms my heart. I asked him to come from London to walk me down the aisle. With my parents gone since I was a child, Akira is the closest thing I have to a father.
‘I know he will. I just hope he hurries up.’ I say. Akira holds out his elbow and my left hand gently clutches his suit. We hear the music begin and the large doors creak open.
With thousands of eyes on me, I look straight ahead just as Eisuke would. Ignore all the stares and look straight forward always no matter what. Cameras and flashes and whispers fill the room as I see JT smirk my way. The wedding dress wasn’t my choice. It was designed by JT and Ota together but it still isn’t the dress I imagined I would wear to my wedding. It’s a backless, pearl white lace dress with a ring of diamonds at my waist. My hair is in a loose bun and a thin hair band with small flowers rests atop my head. The dress trails at the back slightly and I feel it drag the fake flowers those sitting on the benches throw at us. In the corner of my eye, I see the bidders who wave at me. I smile inwardly, knowing that I’m in safe hands.
We finally make it to the priest and JT presses a light kiss to my hand. I gag inside as Akira leaves me to sit down.
The priest begins to speak the formalities and my mind drifts away. Eisuke said he would save me. So where is he? I’ve hoped for years that Eisuke would love me the way that I love him and now that I finally have it, we’ve become entangled in this mess.
‘If there is anyone who would object to this couple’s union, speak now or forever hold your peace.’
The doors behind us creak open once more. Everyone turns to see the silhouette of the man I love the most in this world.
‘I object.’
Eisuke walks forward as gasps and whispers fill the room. All cameras pointed at the King of Spades.
‘JT Lance has no business marrying her.’ He nods to the priest who takes out a remote and presses a button. A projector rises near the back of the church and a picture of a woman appears.
‘Oh that’s Miss Freya Opaline.’ Opaline was a great gem collector who mysteriously died when she tripped and fell into glass which pierced her heart.
‘Miss Opaline was not killed by what we believed was an accident.’ Eisuke’s strong voice echoes in the church.
‘JT and Opaline were both after the same set of gems that were unearthed in Egypt. Opaline got to them first so JT attempted to bribe her for them. When that didn’t work, he killed her and took the gems for himself.’ Moans and groans of the shocked public begin to rise.
‘The next few slides have secret messages between Mr Jason Taylor Lance and his associates who covered up the murder. Let’s also not forget about Mr Lance, who has been making counterfeit money for nearly a decade.’
‘Damn it.’ I hear JT whisper in defeat.
‘If there is anybody else who would like to object…’ As if on cue, Baba and Ota shout out.
‘I object!’ Everyone follows suit and I back away. Suddenly, Mamoru and the police walk in, arresting JT and Mr Lance. Before JT is taken away, I waltz up to him where he is handcuffed. I smile and throw the bouquet at his feet. The sound a slap resonates inside the building, rendering everyone silent. JT stares dumbfounded. Suddenly, I hear cheers for my performance and the police take JT away.
Eisuke comes up to me and I kiss him. I hear many screams and see white flashes behind my closed eyelids but I don’t care. He did it all and I helped him.
‘I love you Eisuke.’
‘I love you Vivian.’ He smiles genuinely and I fall in love again. We lean our foreheads together, knowing our love for each other is true.
*
‘It was nice of Mrs Lance to sign the contract on behalf of her ex-husband.’ I say.
‘Yes. Now that Miss Felicia is taking over, their business might finally have a chance of being good.’
‘But not as good as the Ichinomiya Group. Right?’ I laugh.
‘Obviously.’ Eisuke smirks at me when we hear a crack.
‘Okay, I think I got it.’ Ota says. The large statue of Venus stands before us once again… in pieces.
‘I guess you finally did something right for once Baba.’ Mamoru says.
‘Yeah! Wait what?!’
‘We were lucky that this was the statue that Miss Felicia was talking about. Who would have thought that Opaline and Felicia were such good childhood friends that Opaline gave the gems to her?’
The gems were never with Opaline to begin with. She sent them to JT’s mother as a way to rekindle their love for each other. Unfortunately, JT killed Opaline before she and Felicia could run away and start life anew. After her death, Felicia hid the gems inside the statue made by an amateur to prevent anyone from taking them.
‘The gems were the beginning of so much sorrow. Whatever stories there are, those gems hold nothing but pain.’
‘It’s a tragic love story but I think Felicia will be happy knowing that she has her own business to run and that her lover’s murderers are in prison.’
‘What I can’t believe is that Mr Lance wanted Vivian in order to blackmail you into selling the counterfeit money at the auctions.’
‘A stupid idea by a coward.’
‘Guys, I think I found it.’ Ota pulls out a golden box from the statue’s chest.
‘Is that it?’
‘Must be.’
‘Open it Eisuke!’
He takes the box and uses the key Felicia gave Eisuke. Inside is one gem, not multiple like the stories. A large diamond the size of a fist sparkles in the light.
‘Now this, will fetch a very good price.’ Eisuke smirks.
*
‘$20 million! $50 million! $100 million! Do I have any more bids?’
‘It’s going up.’
‘Of course it is.’
‘$150 million! $200 million!’
‘Wow.’
‘Honestly, these people are far too desperate for something good to happen to ‘em. As if a diamond can bring good fortune.’ Mamoru says.
‘$300 million! Any more!’
The diamond sits on a pedestal on top of a purple velvet cushion. I hug Eisuke’s arm and snuggle into his side as I feel him kiss the top of my head.
‘$500 million! Sold!’

A Little Death
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I’m not sure just a little story concept I came up with at 3 am and ran with. enjoy.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing this bad was supposed to happen here. Ever.
It wasn’t me who came up with the idea of writing everything down. I can’t remember who did, but as soon as it was mentioned everyone else seemed to like the idea too.
I'm not sure what they expect me to write exactly, but I was voted the most capable to do so out of everyone, which of course I disagree with but I don’t really hate the idea of documenting this. So if no one else will I guess it can’t hurt to give it a crack.
Eva had to dig around her room for a couple minutes to find a journal, which she must have forgotten she had because there were no more than four small sketches we had to rip out for the book to be completely empty.
I tried sitting in the living room to write, I thought maybe being around everyone would give me more inspiration to write but all that happened was everyone decided to crowd around me, all staring at the blank paper in anticipation as though whatever I wrote would impact the universe forever. I couldn’t stand it, how do they expect me to write with them hovering over me like that.
There is a reason why I was the one chosen though, because even though I have the messiest handwriting that absolutely no one can read, I'm good with getting down the small things, like the feelings.
But I want anyone reading this to know that this is me writing about my feelings and my feelings only, not Eva’s and not Noah’s. My feelings, my experiences. That's the only way this is going to work.
The only one out of all 9 of us that lived out of town was Eva, a sweet farm girl that likes to bake. We’re all lucky to be friends with her, I’m not sure if we would even be alive if we didn’t have a place out of town to stay.
I’ll be forever grateful to Eva for that.
I found a spot on the balcony, kind of huddled up in the corner. I even brought a blanket to make sure I didn’t get cold.
It's a nice spot, the balcony is where I usually have a smoke in the morning, usually with warm tea and a book every now and then. The deck squeaks wherever you step and the railings are slowly rotting away, someone will probably have to fix them soon before one of us ends up falling over the edge.
There isn’t much to do here though, everyone kind of just sits around when they’re not on watch. A few people have just finished building a garden on the roof but we need to make a small trip to a house to get seeds because I don’t think anyone thought we would even get this far ahead.
The view is nice here, the property has a bunch of gum trees surrounding it which gives us just a little bit more cover, but god do the kookaburras get loud in the morning, I honestly don’t think I’ve slept in past 7 or 8 am in months.
There’s a creek a couple hundred meters from ‘the shack’. That’s what we’ve nicknamed Eva’s, it fits pretty well too. The house is pretty run down, been here a couple decades but I think it’s the perfect place to hideout.
I know I should be writing about other things, but I feel like I have to set the scene or maybe if you’re reading this you’ve already skipping my monologue and gotten to the actual beginning, which hasn’t been written yet but it’s probably there for you.
Hopefully.
It’s been pretty boring here the last few weeks, and this has been the best idea anyone's had in a while. I feel a little guilty I have to admit, Noah seemed to really like the idea of writing everything down and I could tell he secretly wanted to be the one writing. He is a good writer too, he hasn’t said anything yet and I doubt he will.
He’s too nice to say anything, so it will probably eat away at him until he either decides to write his own version, or forget about it and do something else.
Noah is a sweetheart really, but he wasn't with us from the very beginning, he came a little bit later, so I guess it made sense that he wasn't the one chosen.
There's not much more to now than to get into the ‘story’, I’m not really sure how to do it so I’m going to start in the beginning and work my way from there to now, which should be fine if my memory is working fine.
I’m going to start in Psychology class, double period on a Friday, God it feels like a lifetime since I’ve been in a classroom and it's not like I ever hated school, it's just a bit of you don't know what you have until it's gone.
By the start of the second session an announcement was made over the loudspeaker, the principle calling a lockdown. This was odd for more than one reason.
The first being this is Australia, everyone doesn’t walk around with guns freely. The second is I haven’t had a real lockdown since grade 3 when some crackhead walked into school with a cricket bat trying to hit tiny fairies.
So we all just assumed it was a drill, even the teacher did. That was at least until Mrs Reece got an email.
I remember her asking the class who had gotten the COVID vaccine, at least half the class put their hands up, a couple of them being my friends, Ellie Newton, Emily Jackson, Jake Cross and Lucas Walker.
They were taken out of the class by some other teacher, I can't remember his name but he taught P.E which I didn’t do, obviously. He had a whole group of kids with him, saying anyone that was vaccinated had to go to the gym immediately, so when everyone left there weren't many people in the room-no more than 15 year 11’s.
But I never saw that group of people again.
It only took a couple minutes and the remaining people were moved to the second gym, the old one that we only used when the new one was being used for something else. I just remember it being full of students who were all crowded in small groups all as clueless as we were.
The remaining 500 or so people of all year levels were told to sit, they set up the projector and started playing the news. I remember saying something to Sarah next to me along the lines of, ‘wow all this for the queen finally dying’. It was funny at the time I promise.
But instead of showing the royal family the screen showed people running around the city in what I can only describe as anarchy, cars were on fire and there were just bodies laying there on the road like roadkill.
It didn’t take long for someone to say it though, we were waiting for someone to shout it.
‘Zombie Apocalypse!’
I still get shivers even now, thinking about how quickly everything changed.
The news broadcast explained that the only people that were infected currently were people who got the vaccine, and it only took a few moments for things to click in my brain.
Everyone else in my family got the vaccine except me, Mum and Mad got theirs so they could go back to work, and my younger sister had to get hers done to be accepted back at kindergarten.
Not to mention the vaccine wasn’t cheap, $40 per dose. So I decided I could live without it for an extra week to two to make sure we had enough money for bills and food.
Maybe my parents being broke was what saved my life.
Then the police came and told us we couldn’t leave, which only made me want to leave even more. I felt trapped while my family was at home turning into mindless brain eaters.
I guess that was where our plan began, none of us wanted to stay there in the old gym that smelled too much like sweaty socks. The plan wasn’t even that good, we only got out by dumb luck that 10 police officers couldn’t keep tabs on everyone.
So we all went to the toilets a couple minutes apart from each other, climbing out of the small window. It was a miracle we all even fit.
I don’t know what happened to the kids that stayed in that gym, but I haven’t seen another kid from school since that day, well not alive at least.

Yes, for 48 hours Amazon will be treating all its Prime customers to two days of deals, making its 2019 annual shopping event the longest ever.

In fact, Amazon has promised its biggest ever sale on Alexa devices! Expect dirt-cheap prices on Echo smart speakers, Fire tablets and Fire streamers, then. Of course, if instead you're in the market for a new 4K OLED TV, a Bluetooth speaker or wireless headphones, a cheap projector or home cinema amplifier, there'll no doubt be plenty of savings across the board in the two-day Amazon Prime Day 2019 UK sale. After all, of the "more than one million deals globally", at least one is bound to tickle your fancy!

When is Amazon Prime Day?
Monday 15th and Tuesday 16th July The official Amazon Prime Day date has just been confirmed. It will begin at 00.01am (BST) on Monday 15th July and conclude at 11:59pm (BST) on Tuesday 16th July. It wouldn't be an online sale if there weren't some special offers leaked in advance, so we would be seriously surprised if Amazon doesn't sneak out some extra deals to build the excitement in the week before the big day. Already it's offering 50 per cent off blockbuster movie purchases and rentals from this Friday (28th) right the way through until 18th July... Last year, Amazon’s voice assistant Alexa had all the news on Prime Day. Asking, “Alexa, when is Prime Day”, gave you all the details on the shopping extravaganza. So keeping on friendly terms with your Alexa device may dividends if you want to know the details in advance. Just saying.
What is Amazon Prime Day?
Prime Day is Amazon's take on Black Friday. While every online retailer gets involved in the now annual Black Friday bargain bun fight, Prime Day is all about Amazon. The special day of deals is a members-only affair, so you'll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of the offers. Thanks to Amazon's 30-day Prime free trial, there is always the option to sign up, bag a few bargains, and then cancel your membership. Prime members are then able to take advantage of limited time only 'Lightning deals' as well as broader Prime Day deals across the site. Amazon promises new deals every few minutes, with the deals dropping on the website and on the Amazon app (which gave members an early heads-up on the deals). Last year Prime Day ran in the UK, US, Spain, Mexico, Japan, India, Italy, Germany, France, China, Canada, Belgium, Austria, Australia, Singapore, Netherlands and Luxembourg. And for the first time, Prime Day also ran offline, with savings coming to Whole Foods stores on the day. And the first Prime Day deals are already going live...
Prime Day TV deals
Of course, Amazon is price competitive and runs sales and deals on electronics throughout the whole year, and we've spotted some particularly good pre-Prime Day 4K TV, hi-fi and home cinema deals you can snap up RIGHT NOW before the big event...

StarGrazing Astronomy Annual Event Proposal and Invitation
To Amateur Astronomers All - SE Qld, NE NSW. __________________________________________________________________
The short quick version:
Our village is proposing hosting a NE NSW StarGrazing Festival - Annually.
Test run, evaluation this year, Ben Lomond Village, NSW, April 22 to 25, 2017.
We are seeking interested and supportive members from the astronomical community to visit in this time to check out our site, conditions, the proposal, give feedback, suggestions, recommendations.
If you consider attending to help us in this exercise, please fill out the questionnaire so we know approx numbers etc.
The questionnaire is at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/StargrazingFeedback_2017_1_Who_is_coming
The detailed version:
We think north-eastern New South Wales needs an annual gathering point for amateur astronomers. Essentially, a star party. And we think we have the best place to host it. What follows is the full story of how we have come to this proposal. It will leave you with a fairly informed picture of this rural village, the seriousness of our commitment and intentions, and what is proposed. Soon in separate information, we will provide additional information on accommodation options, food, costs, what we can provide this year, as things become clear.
An idea and invitation.
We would like yourself, or some of your other members, to consider visiting us between 22nd to 25th April this year. Check out our observing conditions and our local assets, with a view to us hosting such an event annually for this region.
The location is Ben Lomond village. [ 30 ̊ 01’ S, 151 ̊ 39’ E. ]
Ben Lomond is a small rural village nestled at the top of the Great Dividing Range on the Northern Tablelands of NSW. At an elevation of 1370 m, the village and local oval is a little higher than the Siding Springs Observatory site. 15% or so of the atmosphere is below. Even though it is only about two hours drive from the NSW - Queensland border, the village typically gets a few falls of snow each winter. You may well have heard of our village on the news. How much difference this makes for viewing conditions, is well.... we are hoping you can help us form a view.
We can not claim we have the best darkest night skies of any place in Australia. If you are seeking rare near perfect dark atmospheric conditions for deep long exposure photography, Central Australia, middle of the Indian Ocean, and Antarctica would be better. Our skies, due to our location, are pretty good though. A lot better than in cities or even near rural towns.
In counter balance to some compromise in top observing conditions, we think we have a unique combination of assets in the one place to make us an excellent venue overall for hosting an annual astronomy festival or star party.
First, there are not very many rural villages left like ours, and even fewer that don't have a major road or highway running through the middle of them.
Our village is situated such that we have a range of hills sheltering us on our east side from the New England Highway, which itself is about 10 km to the east of us. Our location not far from a major inland highway means we are easy to get to from Sydney, the Hunter Valley, Clarence Valley, Southern mid west Queensland, Brisbane and Southeast Queensland (all within 8 hours), while still with fair buffer from highway headlights. We are less than three hours drive inland from Coffs Harbour on the mid-north coast. That is far enough to be away from coastal urban light pollution. We also have a regional airport down the road less than an hour away, and a Sydney rail-bus link bus stop 15 minutes down the road. Meanwhile with a little research (actually quite a bit see map below) we note we are located centrally to a wide range of astronomy groups.
In this regard, we seem to have a pretty unique combination of deep rural skies, easy accessibility, and central location to most astronomy groups in this part of the world.
There is more though that leads us to be putting up our hand up and reaching out to the amateur astronomical community to consider our proposal.
Dark skies can be found elsewhere, but usually not with access to other practical amenities “ready to go” for holding a star party. It is easy to overlook how important these are on a practical level in enjoying an event.
Ben Lomond village has been a proactive rural community that's worked hard over the last few decades to improve and develop its local village assets. Nothing like multimillion dollar venues of course, but sound practical usable assets.
Consequently, we have all in one place; a wide country oval with excellent sky coverage, with adjacent tent camping and campervan space. Adjacent to the oval, a restored weather shed, barbecue facilities, and public loo. (Note, no public shower facility yet.) We then have a village hall within five minutes walk from the oval. The village hall hosts a commercial style kitchen (they host weddings here), an enclosed dining area, and a light projector and audio visual system, and more loos. I should mention at this point that our local CWA provide some pretty down to earth and excellent country cooking when they cater.
We think it is the combination of night sky conditions, and amenities, that stands this location out as a venue for a regional annual star party for this region. Not only do we have an excellent flat observing area with good night sky conditions, but also a venue for food, eating, socialising, wet weather, and facilities for talks, forums, and lectures, all ready to go. It took us awhile to recognise just how unique this is.
Upon investigation, we have support from our electricity provider and the village community to turn off the dozen streetlights in the village for as many nights as we would like. (For a connection and disconnection fee.) We also have support from the village community it would seem to work cooperatively with such an event in terms of any external lights they may have. We have less than 30 residents here.
We have looked at the annual astronomy calendar of events (and our weather) and set our star party date for last weekend of the Easter School Holidays, and the 3 or 4 nights following. There are some good reasons for this choice.
April is in our dry time of the year. Like most places, there can still be unseasonal rain events and clouds. While it does get chilly at night at this time of the year (we will likely have had our first frosts) it is not the dead of winter with overnight ground temperatures dropping below -6°C to -12 ̊C. Further, the way Easter and the school holidays are set to the full moon, this last weekend of the school holidays will always be such that the moon will not rise until after midnight at the earliest.
As for a program, we intend the first night, Saturday night (this year the 22nd of April) to be a public open night. A night to promote astronomy as a science, and as a hobby to young people, and indeed everyone. Being the end of the school holidays it will be something for families to do before the kids go back to school.
Then following the public night, a further three or four nights is reserved and dedicated to amateur astronomy. That is, lights remain off for observing (night time), hall available for talks workshops chat (afternoons), practical support like catering and food for those who wish it. Essentially, the village puts itself into "host mode" for amateur astronomy.
For the public Saturday night, we would like also to encourage anyone with a telescope in other centres on the Northern Tablelands to offer some stargazing to the public at their rural town or village oval as well. In this way we would hope to extend the public night across the Northern Tablelands as an annual event each year promoting astronomy. We do appreciate our access to dark night skies and the wonder they bring, so we are quite passionate about promoting the enjoyment of what is there for all to enjoy.
Amateur astronomers as a group of people are diverse. In developing this event, we would like to pay some focus to the social side as a festival. For example, some keen astronomers have family with partner and or kids. In such instances interest in astronomy may be embraced by the whole family, or “tolerated”. For those single, its great to connect with others with a common intellectual interest. Being centrally located on the Northern Tablelands, there is the option of dropping off ones family astronomer for a few days, while the rest tour other sites in the region, national parks, horse riding, gem prospecting, etc. Alternatively, if all are on board, make it a cheap family camping holiday, with access to local country roads for bike riding, and time in a rural quiet location. Hence we would be looking at afternoon activities added on that do not conflict with the astronomy. So it seems the bonfire and fireworks are out.
So here you have our current vision. We think it is doable.
We think it is not only an excellent opportunity for our village community to have an event we can come together for, but an excellent opportunity for the amateur astronomical community in this region of Australia to take up and benefit from.
What sort of community are we? How long have we been thinking about this?
How did we come to this?
To be clear, we are not writing this letter of invitation to you as a kind of one off thought bubble. This is not a letter where in we just hope some of you will turn up, bring telescopes and make it happen. We have been working on the viability of this idea for about 3 years now. All has been very carefully considered, and in offering ourselves as hosts for such an annual event, we are doing so with a mindset for the long haul into the future.
In gauging if it is worth your while supporting this particular proposal, I think it helps to know our history and momentum as a village community that leads us to be suggesting we host such an event.
We did not start developing our village over 20 years ago with such an event in mind. Rather then it was simply about our survival. Most small rural villages have disappeared over the latter half of the last century. Maintaining a sense of community in rural areas is very important, and so several people in this community decided that we did not want to go the way of so many other communities. Consequently our local Land Care Group also became our local progress association. First some trees were planted in the village, someone started mowing some of the roadside verges to tidy things up, and things grew from there.
Over the last decade, as a small organised rural community we have developed a very good relationship with our local council. Indeed, they were so impressed they offered an annual allocation of $10,000 for us to keep work on improving our community and continuing in large part to manage ourselves. We are right at the remote boundary of three local government areas, so it makes sense to support us to meet most of our own needs. Saves council money.
We have since built quite a reputation of being a progressive, competent, accountable with funding, inventive community. Hence, we have had our local council fully behind us in this star party, astronomy festival initiative. With a phone call and an appointment for example, we have enjoyed ‘walk in’ access to our local council to sit down with our General Manager, Council Engineer, Planning Officer, Councillors, Mayor, whoever is relevant, to discuss any issue or problem and develop possible solutions. That is a pretty good relationship to have with hosting such an event.
So when did the Star Party idea come about?
That happened only about 3 years ago. It helps to know that your writer here has had a lifelong interest in astronomy. Built my first telescope with support from others in my late teens, have a general science background, and spent time as a young person at CSIRO Division of Radio Physics where in I can boast that I have actually ridden “The Dish” to the ground like in the movies.
I mentioned the idea of hosting a star party in one of our community meetings, and was surprised to see with how much enthusiasm the idea was taken up. While it was initially a casual thought suggestion, since that time, I and the rest of us involved here have come to see that this really is a very good idea. One that we think can work both for this rural village community, and equally for the amateur astronomy community in this region - if there is an interest to take the offer up.
Provided our location, skies, and assets prove workable, the astronomical community gets an organised rural community that looks forward to hosting them every year. That has to be worth something.
Even looking ahead, the village is landlocked so it is not about to grow significantly, so the environment here for such an event should be good for decades to come.
It all just lines up.
All the same, things always move on, so it is an opportunity that needs to be taken up in some measure fairly promptly or it may be lost.
All is not perfect (per usual).
Unfortunately the local winery up the road burnt down. The Red Lion Pub and Motel remains 15 mins drive away for an evening sit down meal and a social drink. So not all is lost.
This year, our local rural Council was forcibly amalgamated into a larger regional City Council. We are uncertain as to our annual $10,000 allocation to our community. We are in progress as I write to determine what that situation may be. We were hoping to offer catering, some afternoon child friendly activities on the public day afternoon, and other things. We may yet gain some funding but the uncertainty has left us limited at this point of what we can offer. These uncertainties delayed our progress in writing to groups as we had originally intended.
(Update: 23.03.17 No funding this year due to unfortunate circumstances, however next 5 years being considered, part of which can be used to develop this event.)
We are going ahead regardless, looking for other sources today.
So where to from here?
Despite this setback, none of these uncertainties remove that we are, from all our reviews, an excellent place to host an annual star party for north-eastern New South Wales, and possibly for those interested in SE Queensland. We think this region needs one. An annual gathering point to share the interest, and promote astronomy. Also simply provide a different dark night sky location for several nights for those stuck in more urban areas. If an event were established we note we are also well situated to bringing interstate astronomy groups and their members together for some trading (or competition) of skills, knowledge, second hand astronomy gear, etc.
This year we are taking it quietly. We are not trying to overly promote the event. Rather we invite and seek members of your group to assess our value as venue for a star party for our region. Check out our village, venues, and sky conditions. We seek your feedback, thoughts, and suggestions of how we can make this work with a view to a more promoted event next year, April, 2018.
We seek your arrival here in time for the Sat night, 22nd April. That is the public night. If we have sufficient interest and telescopes (we have two so far we think) it will be a chance to do a little promotion to gauge public interest for such an event.
If you want to stay a few nights after to do so some astronomy, we would be delighted. We have booked the Hall and the village oval for 4 nights with the local groups responsible for managing these facilities.
At this stage, given we have no idea what sort of response we may get, if you have thoughts of attending we would ask you to fill out the online questionnaire at the top and bottom of this post.
This questionnaire will give us an idea of how many people might be coming, if we will have enough astronomers with telescopes to warrant promotion of the public night. We also ask for a contact email address so that we can update you on what is happening. We will need to organise ourselves according to the level of response. At this point, if we attract a dozen amateurs, some with telescopes, we will be delighted. Naturally if you bring a telescope we are hoping that you will offer time to share objects of interest with those that come to the Sat night as public night.
So there you have the situation and opportunity. We hope you will discuss this opportunity with others in your local astronomy circles.
For a name, we have adopted StarGrazing Festival, or NE NSW StarGrazing Festival, depending on the context. Agriculturally we are grazing country. A rather obvious play on words.
Please consider. Ben Lomond Village StarGrazing team. Email: [email protected]

Gadgets And Accessories For The Ultimate Road Trip
How ultimate are you looking to go? Because you can pick up your roots, jump on the road, and live there perpetually. People do it for years at a time and even raise families on the road. There’s a new way to live called van-dwelling that is soaring among millennials.
Of course, just a week-long road trip in a city where you sleep in the back of a Subaru could be fun for some; but there are little things you can do to make things easier on yourself. First, find a means of location-independent income. There are various options in the new IoT economy. Lyft and Uber are options, though probably not ideal for a road trip.
There are also task options in crowd-sourced economies where you can download an app and perform various construction or errand-related tasks for clients. Additionally there are online surveys to take, articles you can write, you could be a secret shopper, or just be a journeyman construction professional of some variety; bouncing between crews.
The point is, provided you’ve got some way of making a little money on the road, you can live life to the max. If you get a solar panel and sequence batteries, you’ll have enough power for one, or maybe two, to use the internet almost all day, every day. It will depend to some degree on the weather; but you could buy two panels and sequence them to two batteries for well under $1,000.
https://pixabay.com/en/van-vw-travel-trip-holiday-2786078/
Trailers, Tech, And Preparation
Or imagine you’ve got a small vehicle that has enough horsepower to tow a small trailer. You could install a hitch, throw panels on the trailer, and live like you’ve got an apartment on wheels. If you’re looking for towbars in Brisbane, Speedy Towbars offers a variety of solution`s for a variety of needs, and can help you find the best option.
It’s rather popular to go on holiday in The Outback; for many reasons it makes sense to have a caravan-style RV, otherwise known as a fifth-wheel, rather than a full-sized motorhome. For one thing, such trailers are more accessible. For another, it’s easier to maintain the vehicle. A third positive revolves around your ability to travel. You can park the trailer at a safe location and have a home base, as it were.
If you’re a bit adventurous, and have the proper resources, you can find all kinds of travel accessories which will make popping off to the country or across it for a few weeks more comfortable. Consider a pocket projector, as an example. This device can project from your smartphone onto a surface in a small vehicle, and give you a big screen experience on the cheap. All the comforts of home from the convenience of your hatchback.
A relatively cheap necessity for the off-road survivalist may be an ever-ready match. You can strike this metal innovation multiple times and achieve a flame. Crucial for an unexpected survival situation, such innovations can also make general travel more convenient. When you’re striking a fire in the wilderness, an endless match simplifies things.
https://pixabay.com/en/ayers-rock-australia-landmark-bush-3768427/
See The World And Save As Well
If you’re savvy enough to save a year’s rent, you can buy an RV which will pay for itself by giving you rent-free living for the rest of the year. Proper preparation and strategy can give you all the amenities of stationary living for about 40% to 50% less than traditional rental costs.
Using the internet to make your money can make the world your backyard; but even if you’re only traveling for a few days, you want to prepare for the unexpected, and perhaps seek new innovations as they develop.
