There was a song in Melodifestivalen this year called “STOP” by Sibel. It took me a while to latch on to it but, when I did, I wasn’t impressed with the performance. Sibel’s notes seemed to be all over the place. And the two false endings of the song confused both the audience and me! [...]
Watching the Melodifestivalen final
If you go to the Social page on this website, you’ll see a stack of photos from last Sunday’s get together to watch the Melodifestivalen 2010 final on the big screen. Shots are lacking captions because I am waiting on the lovely Patrick to get back to me and remind me of all the names [...]
Yoda wants to go to Iceland
My BFF Yoda has suddenly announced he wants to go to Iceland for his 50th birthday. I’m all in favour of it! Although I am a little bit surprised he wants to do a 5 day tour of Iceland – I didn’t think it would take that long. Must be one of the larger stores.
9 hours in my undies
What a strange day it’s been. I’m hoping to head off to bed soon and forget the whole thing! Tomorrow we have a small, but expectant gathering of the faithful to watch a DVD of the final of Melodifestivalen 2010 in a nearby pub. As I write this, the final hasn’t even commenced. In fact, [...]
Sometimes you just really need a sassy Gay friend
Why didn’t Shakespeare include any sassy Gay friends as characters in his plays? Why wasn’t there a Queer Eye for that Shakespeare guy? As these videos show a sassy Gay friend could have prevented a lot of needless death and heartache all those centuries ago. Come to think of it, even today everyone needs a [...]

How about a nice big cup of BORING BALLAD?
“Barfing (known medically as emesis and informally as throwing up and a number of other terms) is the forceful expulsion of the contents of one’s stomach through the mouth and sometimes the nose. Barfing may result from many causes, ranging from gastritis or poisoning to brain tumors, or elevated intracranial pressure. The feeling that one [...]
Blown away by “A Single Man”
Yoda and I went to see “A Single Man” yesterday. It’s been a weekend of movies actually – we also saw “Up In The Air” today which we both liked. But it was “A Single Man” which really blew us away and which continued to stay with us long after we left the cinema. I [...]
James is in Stockholm
My good friend James has arrived in Stockholm and a 24 hour journey covering Sydney, Bangkok and Helsinki. James isn’t frigid but Stockholm sure is as you can see from the picture here. It’s all ice, ice baby in Sweden. They’re having the longest winter they’ve had in eons. Normally the people and the weather [...]
Maggie Burns & Co – Patchs, Sydney – 1985
These are the last two songs from Maggie Burns & Company’s “Games” which was performed at Patchs, Oxford Street, Sydney for several months in 1985. Generally at 2am! And I should know – I was there for quite a few of those performances. Home video cameras were new and expensive and a then friend of [...]
