Opinionated

By Opinionated

It all began in 1999 when Amy and Steven met on the first day of primary school in the sandpit (we know, it sounds like the intro to a romcom). Throughout the years these two have shared first kisses together that tasted like birthday cake, have almost gotten arrested together, many failed attempts to win talent contests, one coming out of the closet, a couple of near death experiences, and the odd bad tattoo........ and well, after 20 years of that, they're bound to have some opinions. If you’re like us & want to know the news, without having to actually read it... Opinionated is for you!
