Well. What a game. The mighty Brisbane Lions won the first year I arrived in Australia, followed by 2002 and 2003. They secured another three-peat again today! An unbelievable finish. What a team. Go Lions!

Time to leave beautiful Zug. Had a lovely month in Switzerland and Edinburgh. Back to reality. Until next time.

Sometimes the best shows are unexpected. I didn’t know how much I’d enjoy 17 year old @watsoncomedian.bsky.social being romantically eviscerated by an improv musical group. Mark portrayed pretty accurately I think, although Chris Watson was done a bit dirty. Amazing show with David Magidoff

Watching some NMJ. What a bloody joy. Garry Kasparov from Key, ‘No more people where there’s footage of them moving something a small distance’. Delight from Mark, pain for Horne. So bloody good. More, please, I miss it.

Happy Birthday @coldandabsurd.bsky.social - I hope it’s a lovely day and you don’t only get Easter eggs as gifts which I did in 1984 and definitely don’t still have a chip on my shoulder about.

Deserves resharing. Brisbane looking resplendent at sunset. This is from 2019, feels like a hundred years ago.

Happy New Year from Brisbane! I’m stuck at home due to illness but here are the fireworks I wouldn’t have gone to see anyway. I hope everyone has a lovely evening. Image 📷: mahdii.travel

Received an incredible gift from one of my coworkers today. Look at this beautiful @taskmaster.tv bookmark! One end is a task and the other a duck. So bloody good. You need these in the gift shop @alexhorne.bsky.social

What an amazing show. No surprise, Tim Minchin is so talented. Played my favourite song, Seeing You, so I’m absolutely stoked. Incredible.

Here for Minchin. Could have stayed for Sir Cliff!

Melbourne this weekend. Hotel has a Gotham City vibe. And a free mini-bar. Lovely.

Lovely last few days with a short visit to Germany. Had a wonderful holiday. Lovely to see the Edinburgh crew and the Swiss Family.

A good game, the second half came alive. So lucky to have such an incredible stadium in Brisbane that hosts these games so brilliantly.

Finally, someone admires my personality and good sense of humour. Thanks pretend Joel Dommett. Unfortunately I reported you rather than adding you as a friend as I hate compliments.

Seems they’ve gone in slightly a different direction for the US market launch @watsoncomedian.bsky.social - fingers crossed for the UK launch.

My very clever sister has written a book. She has investigated the gender myths prevalent in medicine and society that undermine many people’s negative experiences of menstrual related symptoms, specifically emotional distress and physical pain. Available now! www.amazon.co.uk/Menstrual-My...

Five years ago today I swapped a 12 pack of toilet rolls for a large bunch of bananas in my work car park. It feels like just yesterday and a lifetime ago all at the same time. The only thing I miss from those days are the lunchtime naps.

I think I’ve become a bit too local over the 25 years I’ve been in Australia. There’s a cyclone coming, I’ve taken the ‘she’ll be right, mate” approach, so if I lose power I’m eating crackers and cold baked beans and reading books for entertainment. Could be a lot worse. Should find my power bank…

The brilliant @timminchin.bsky.social at The Foundry Theatre. An incredible show with some of my favourite songs. Phenomenal to have such a fabulous new venue. Pretty good seat too!

Today is a day when I am a bit over it. The world is going to hell in a hand basket and I still had to work late, go grocery shopping, put the bins out and cook my dinner. I’ve got to wash my hair tonight too. It’s relentless. I need April to be sooner than it is. 83 days til fun things. /whinge

The start of holidays is always signalled by taking off my socks. No socks or proper shoes ‘til Jan 6th. Lovely. See you soon Sunshine Coast.

Just finished watching Live at 9-5 having slept through the last two hours. I weirdly ‘remembered’ some of it having absorbed the chaos in my sleep. Thanks @matryer.bsky.social @alexprestonpod.bsky.social and the main man @watsoncomedian.bsky.social - a joy as ever.

The cicadas are so loud and constant I keep thinking I’ve got tinnitus. The Kookaburras waking me at 5am aren’t helping. Welcome to an Australian summer I guess!

Flying home from Hobart and everyone on this Virgin Australia flight has been knocked out of Whamaggedon. We also got Mariah. It’s the 1st December. Superb trolling by the crew.
