Can someone please fire the whole committee that puts on Stockholm Pride?
And get some people who actually have advanced organisational skills instead?
What is it about these Swedish Gays that makes them so useless in organising a major event after years and years of experience?
Pride Park is a fiasco this year. A dangerous fiasco where lives [...]

I’m over half-way through my overseas trip and currently in Stockholm after being in London and Birmingham.
My host in Stockholm, the irrepressible Gustav, said to me last night that I hadn’t sent in an update to TheBestJudge in ages. Too true unfortunately.
Time is the problem. Yoda and I have been on the go since Day [...]

Crash, crash, 48 crash…crash, crash…waaaaaaahhh….
Not the song.
Me.
When I first visited London I was in my early thirties. I had jetlag for a few days and then never looked back.
I am no longer in my early 30s.
Walking around London last night – Oxford Street, Charing Cross Road, Piccadilly Circus etc. – I found the crowds and [...]

Overheard as we queued at passport control at Heathrow Airport:
One passport officer to another (in disparinging tone: ‘Here comes another lot of bloody Koreans! What do you call them?’
2nd passport officer: A swarm of Koreans?’
I also personally witnessed a poor Korean guy being grilled and verbally tortured by one of these passport guys. The Korean [...]

As I write this I’m sitting on a plane that left Seoul, Korea about 8 hours ago heading for London, England. And there’s still over three hours to go .
Thursday night was chaotic trying to pack and do ‘last minute’ stuff. I am still not over my illness of last week so I was knackered [...]

Well, we’re here! Presently sitting airside at Sydney airport waiting for the boarding call.
Loaded up with all sorts of medications, masks and snacks. Apparently the first sector isn’t too busy so we’ll have a bit of space to stretch out.
Check in was very smooth – we were among the first to arrive and there was [...]

I’m off to work today – my last day before three weeks overseas. No doubt work will be a nightmare with last minute stuff and trying to handover to someone.
I haven’t packed – haven’t even madea packing list. Still a number of things on my ‘to do’ list that haven’t been crossed off. I have [...]

It was the week from hell and luckily I’m still here to bitch about it!
It all started Monday morning – I got woken up by a text message from a friend in Sweden at 6.30am. I’d gone to sleep late and the beeping sound of the phone really made me jump up. After looking at [...]
