Last chance. Only 5 hours to go.

Donations close tonight at 12pm (30 Nov). I'm still hoping to raise $ toward the cost of venue hire for my Melbourne International Comedy Festival show - Anything But The Dyson and Other Excellent Monologues.

It’s been 23 years since I did a Melbourne International Comedy Festival Show, but I’m coming back, with Anything But The Dyson and Other Excellent Monologues. I’m fundraising to pay the venue hire fee for another week, if you can help, you’ll go on a mailing list for early release discount tix!

So I know we’re all tight for $ right now but I’m supporting four projects fundraising today as part of @CreativeAustralia’s #AusArtDay. If you can spare $2 or more, please consider donating:

So we’re in Catania in Sicily, Italy. Mt Etna is erupting. It’s pretty amazing. #mtetna #Volcano #sicily

Love #StKildaFestival. Always a highlight is discovering new artists at the New Music Stage. Here’s the gorgeous #Yara, accompanied by the fabulous Sasha, who is presenting the song in auslan. So good. instagram.com/yara.music_

St Kilda purely magical this morning.

Hanging out with some rays, enjoying the holiday and birthday vibes.

Best way to start the day. The beach. The dog. The coffee. The fog. The smalltalk with strangers.
