Noosa National Park. Sublime.

Noosa itself. Heaving with people and Coolcabanas. Nope.

OMG. I saw Kate Ceberano live at Hamer Hall last night. She showcased 40 years of Australian music - The Church, INXS, Renee Geyer, The Divynals, AC/DC, Sia, Bernard Fanning, Daddy Cool, The Saints - the list went on and on. She was a powerhouse, her band were phenomenal. We had so. Much. Fun!

Reading much tonight on Charlie Kirk, who he was, what he said and believed -- from both admirers and those deeply opposed. It does not matter. None of it. What matters is that political violence made routine against any voice, left or right, marks us as a failing, dying republic.
This is horror.

Paul Kelly is a national bloody treasure. Brilliant to see him in a stadium, killing it at 70 with an incredible band and a stunning 40-year calendar of simple yet evocative songs. Left this gig feeling immensely happy.

My dad was diagnosed with dementia three years ago. Every Father’s Day together is extra special now.
