So this happened last week (and I think I gave @nonstoptom.bsky.social a run for his money!).

It was worth it 🙂

#HardQuiz #ThanksForPlayingHard #STUFFTHEJAMSPOON #MontyPython
Two screenshots from "Hard Quiz": TOP - Brendan claps his hands in delight when Tom Gleeson (out of shot) declares, "Correct! Which means you are tonight's Hard Quiz champion!" The bottom left of the screen has a score counter for Nathan (scoring 3 out of 5) and Brendan (4 out of 5). BOTTOM - Brendan holds the "Hard Quiz" Big Brass Mug, yelling in the style of the Monty Python "Gumby" characters, "THANK! YOU! FOR! PLAY! ING! HARD!" In both shots, Brendan is wearing a colourful tropical buttoned shirt, and a black-and-gold-coloured Obaku watch on his left wrist.

Tony Slattery, 1959-2025.

Forever one of the true greats of "Whose Line Is It Anyway?".

The magic of a Christmas cruise holiday.

#cruise #Christmas #RoyalPrincess
Photo of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, with various boats travelling near or under the bridge. The sky is mostly clear and blue, with some very light cloud towards the left of the photo. A party snow machine emits foam snow over a Christmas tree in a public lobby on board the Royal Princess cruise. The tree is situated between two gold-coloured spiral staircases. A pastry shaped like a heart; there are sugar-iced decorations including a threaded white border, coloured flowers, and writing: (Red text, top row) I LOVE iT [sic] (Blue text, centre) ROYAL PRINCESS (Blue, bottom) Princess Cruises logo

When a full-on busy year warrants a week's holiday away.

Taken at Tuross Head (on New South Wales's South Coast).

#beach #selfie #rage
Selfie of Brendan; he is wearing dark sunglasses and a black shirt bearing a multicoloured word, "rage" (in lower-case - the logo for a music TV programme of the same name). (He is wearing shorts not seen in the picture though.) He is standing on the shore of a beach with sand in the foreground and a grassed rock formation just behind him.

Just one of many photos I've taken around the city of Sydney - taking a great photo is one thing, but taking your time to know your camera is another.

(Photo taken at Lavender Bay, April 2024)
