Get your dose of Offbeat

Many Australian office workers have a busy day so they chow down on lunch while at their desks. So lunch time entertainment usually comes in the form of surfing the net for safe for work websites.

I get my dose from the ABC news using their offbeat tag for news. These news items are entertaining and helpful in modern life:

• UK hotels are already prepared for my visit.


• I'll be prepared for Brisbane's traffic during planned major roadworks.


• Explains how I could break into a shop using a cardboard box.
