St. Murphy to be REBORN

Wow! So that short break ended up being 6 months. That was the quickest 6 months in the world. A very quick 6 months that also feels like a lifetime of crazy shit. One of the many great things that has happened in the last 6 months was the chance to work out what I (we) wanted this blog to be … [Read more...]

St. Murphy freaks out!

Just gonna blurt this out and see if it makes sense. I've had three potentially brilliant blog posts in the last week or so but I can't seem to bring myself to write them. The first is the 'love story' of my amazing friend Sleemol and his beautiful boyfriend Dan. With the legalising of gay civil … [Read more...]

I could do you Brisbane!

I beat for you...

Every time I've come to Brisbane in the last few years I get all excited and want to move here. I've been up here semi-regularly for the past 7 years and this city just keeps getting bigger, better, brighter. This inner-city, middle-aged, poofy Sydney-sider thinks he could be more than happy in … [Read more...]

My dad, the washing machine.

old one in cage2

When my dad died back in 2000 there was some money left over for my bro and I. On the strong advice of my very wise mother I did something practical with it and bought a washing machine. An LG Fuzzy Logic. As you can imagine I've had a rather unnatural love for this washing machine. He's … [Read more...]

Then they all turn up en masse being beautiful and cool. I wanna be a part of this club! Turned up at Daywash on Sunday (yes … [Read more...]

New Year Resolutions ruin my night, I know what I want in 2012!

This Ernie is gonna start looking for his Burt

I couldn't give a fuck about New Year's Resolutions. I've never been any good at them, never stuck to them, always forgotten them before January 2. If I did believe in them I'd be muscled, thin, wealthy, non-alcoholic, educated, relaxed, have broad interests and a delicious, wealthy, devoted … [Read more...]

Bye Bye 2011

2011-New-Years-Eve

I felt like its been a shit year. 2011 was really hard work. It felt so so long and for most of it I just wanted it to be over. I've often thought that I will look back on it as a really rough patch in my life. But as is the way this time of year, you start to reflect. And do you know what, I think … [Read more...]

A Schoolgirls Reunion

A rose between two thorns

Sometimes the stars just align in a perfect night. You know what I mean, when just everything falls into place how it should be. This is what happened for me on Tuesday night. After many, many years apart two of my oldest friends and I finally got our shit together and were all able to be in the … [Read more...]

Cool shit from Christmas!

Lucas and Mater V

First off, this was my favourite toy from this Xmas! Not because it was the one I played with the most, but because it sent me straight back to Xmas' of my youth. Cousin Trude and Cousin Jill had a big one of these which I completely dominated the use of between the ages of 5 and 8. Gay much??? This … [Read more...]
