Come and Save My...

...GARDEN???!?!

Not that I want to admid to being at home on a Friday night, watching Burke's Backyard followed by a stint on the Internerd, but by God, what a good idea that was...

Immediately after a fairly dull segment on Russian Blue cats and a no-bake cheesecake, the Don himself announced a recent letter from a Jenny McCann of Lesmurdie, Western Australia, and a moment later, my screen was emblazoned with Perth Community Theatre's Glamour Family: The McCanns (bald head and baby included)!

Gee, I wonder why it wasn't mentioned on this website? Could it be that they were afraid of clogging up Welshpool Road with desparate actors on a mass exodous to Lesmurdie in a desparate attempt at self-promotion?

And how much did Elliot pay Don for the 'women around Australia are gasping' comment?

But most blatantly absent was a plug for Wolf Lullaby! I'm sure one of you could have improvised a production tee-shirt, cap or coffee mug for the occasion.

By the way, Elliot, I have this weed problem I'd like you to look at, but I'll suffice for the manly roars instead...

PS I think the show will be re-run Saturday 1 September on Channel 9 at 4:30 or so (but check your local guide for details).

...Dignity.

One owner, low miles, not used often. Handyman's dream...

This, I'll have y'all know in all seriousness, was one of The Most HATEFUL Experiences of my life- for reasons which we shall not enter into here...

Suffice it to say- noone could have a higher opinion of The Don than myself- and I doubt I'd urinate on him if he were on fire...
