I was feeling a bit uninspired this evening. Don’t want to cook dinner. Don’t want to clean up. Don’t want to do any work. Don’t have a book on the go. Don’t have any “projects”. And then I hear a loud exclamation from the lounge room. The show on the telly is The Biggest Loser. [...]

It is with some trepidation that I wish you all a Happy Easter. The last time I politely wished a lovely old lady Happy Easter, she snappishly returned: “Don’t say that to me! Don’t you know what happened on Good Friday? There’s nothing happy in that!” I was too taken aback to say another word [...]
Watching The Bill tonight I couldn’t help but notice the perfect make-up on the uniformed officers – in particular Gina Gold and Emma Keane. It just looked… wrong. Now I know I know it’s a TV show, but it made me think… how many female police officers have I seen with perfect make-up? Or indeed [...]
(Despite some pretty serious wardobe malfunctions… and by that I of course refer mostly to the dress she arrived in. That was a toilet roll cover if ever I saw one.) You see I was going to start this post with some remarks about Natalie’s choice in clothes tonight but then I saw Shallow Hal [...]
Rove: Who would you turn gay for? Kevin Rudd: There’s only one person for me and that’s my wife Therese. Rove: Is she a man??? Nice comeback Rove to save the segment. Kevin, you boring little twat.
And the penultimate Idol post. You may be relieved to know. Well. On tonight’s performances. I think Matt will win. The Wolfmother performance was pure class. I did like Nat’s Kate Bush song but it was not as good as Matt’s Wolfmother number. Here I Am is the name of the new single. Another BIG [...]
 And so it is Matt and Nat… good.
This Sunday on Idol, was it just me or did you think the stylists took inspiration from the nineteen eighties fashion wise. First Natalie singing Ray of Light wearing what appeared to be a body stocking?! Either that or a very high g-string. I was surprised Kyle managed not to comment! I’m not fussed on [...]
And Marty has finally been voted off. Nice. In the meantime we came fourth (it seems to have changed from 3rd for some reason) tonight in bridge which was a good effort but not enough to raise us from the depths of despair after last week. We reckon we need about 80% next week in [...]
It’s big band night on Australian Idol. It’s supposed to be Carl’s night but it’s Natalie who shines. Carl sings Me and Mrs Jones wearing an untied bow tie and a shirt so thin you can see his shoulderblades. “Cheap shirt” says Groover from the not-so-cheap seats, not now that we’ve got surround sound. And [...]
