    A brilliant PM. Brought down by the corrupt LNP and class system. Suggest everyone read the brilliant book by Professor Jenny Hocking who fought to the High Court so Australians could find out the conspiracy behind Whitlam’s sacking. ✊✊✊

    Lovely Sunday stroll with wife Lola and children Sally & Pericles up past Chadwell's fantastic new theme park. And for those wondering, the council budget was a bit tight so the theme of the park is 'Existential Despair.'

    For me, Mahler is the root of the Second Viennese School [...] But getting to know Mahler for me has been discovering the missing link between Wagner & Schoenberg. And now I understand much better Alban Berg, who absorbed so much Mahler.  - Pierre Boulez

    I reported a cosmetic bug to last November - it wasn’t something that could immediately be fixed but they didn’t forget and as of 21.6 it is fixed (and they even emailed me to let me know) - no other software customer support comes close to Ulysses! Bravo!

    Today I took the difficult decision to dismiss Town Hall receptionist Helen Nuttall, on the grounds that she's a waxwork. I hold my hands up & admit I never noticed. I just thought she was very calm. Quite how she's managed to stay in her job for 15 years is, frankly, baffling.

    My wife Lola will be selling her crocheted dolls in the precinct this Saturday, all proceeds to the drop-in-centre. For God's sake buy one, she's made 600 of the bloody things. They're all over the house. Every time I open the airing cupboard it's like being attacked by Chucky.
