Don't bring the kids (there is some hilariously bad porn read right out of Herbert's book) but do bring some spice (ie some nutmeg or something), as he can't do the spice skit without it.

My 2nd show was Dune but Worse from AoNZ performer Sean Burnett Dugdale-Martin who sends up both film and book brilliantly. Very silly, epic production where the audience gets to play multiple characters, if they want, but don't have to. The sandworm is a suitably huge part of the show. Hilarious.

What an awesome first night #melbournefringe tonight. So excited to start with one of the best Cabaret artists in the country, Jude Perl. Jazzy piano playing & a voice to send you into the ether. She's inviting talented friends on stage and tonight was Kate K-S and their voices blended perfectly. 🤩

There's just way too much to be very cross about, today. The Australian government investing OUR MONEY in EllenMusk's stupid space project and weapons companies is next level crap. I've disagreed with governments before but I've never been this disappointed in one.

Is this like the conspiracy where there are Americans that believe Australia doesn't exist (which really sounds like something Douglas Adams made up)

Aww I loved this show, esp on repeats after seeing Daniel live on Stage here in Melbourne playing Dr Frank n Furter in The Rocky Horror show live at the Comedy Theatre. He did a bloody great job. And Arthur Lowe being grumpy is always cute.

In the lift, 3 suits get in talking about a meeting "Is it online or a fleshie?" My skin crawled. It was a fleshie and they were all saying fleshie and I couldn't get out of that lift quick enough.

Hey, if you liked the song and you don't know who Stella Young was, I recommend you hustle to your search engine of choice and type in her name. Watch her famous Opera House talk and you'll see why! 🥰 She was only 32 when she died, but holy shit did she make it count.

This is well known by IT experts, and was the advice to government. It was ignored for commercial, and worse, reasons amounting to treason. Lawmakers failed the corruption test, and now we pay the criminal tax.

Here he is in Carry On Teacher, Richard had a long fabulous career until his stroke at 59. Of course I loved him in Man About the House and Robin's Nest but also whenever he popped up in anything really. Saw him play Liz Taylor's little brother Ptolemi in Cleopatra recently. RIP sweety.

I used to camp south of Cambelltown every year for many years. I would think that it's a long distance from Sydney, through tough terain for back then! Gorgeous area at the foot of the blue mountains. I dream of being back there every autumn.

Tonight for dinner I made the dish Rumbledethumps. A sort of Scottish version of Colcannon; lightly mashed potatoes, cabbage and onions with cheese melted over the top in the oven. I added some herbs from the garden. A delicious side to steak.
An enambled dish with half eaten cheesy potato cabbage bake with a big spoon on a linen tablecloth.
