I don’t think we need to worry about Gen Alpha. They’re cool. This is my 13 yo boy.

What a night! @The_Waterboys - simply sublime. Best live show I’ve ever seen. Incredible. Go well Mike and the team!

Since March a good friend and I have been challenging each other to avoid phone doom scrolling and instead use spare time to return to books. I’ve decided to focus on some modern classics and have so far devoured Toni Morrison’s Beloved, Song of Solomon, and Sula, as well as F Scott FitzGerald’s The Great Gatsby and Tender is the Night. All extraordinary books. Recommendations for others very welcome. I’m thinking Grapes of Wrath next?

So my boy continues the recent trend of meeting his musical heroes heroes. First was @OfficialOpeth in Sydney and now Adam Jones from @Tool here in Melbourne. He’s appropriately stoked!

The scene of our first date some 18 years ago. And now, our last hoorah at Florentino’s before the change of hands at Grossi.

A win for the ages. Go Australia! Bring on Brisbane! Great to see the @originenergy sponsorship on the players’ arms! #Ashes #Cricket #SummerOfCricket

So ahead of our Sydney trip a day ago my metal crazy boy said to me, “imagine if we ran into Opeth while we’re there”. And we did! One of my boy’s FAVOURITE metal bands since he was 9 years old. @OfficialOpeth

Her Dad’s bat and cap out for young Ben Austin, who tragically died playing cricket. Alice was moved and wanted to celebrate Ben. Our ❤️s go out to his family. So awful.

A very good piece I only just came across about the rise of diagnoses of women and girls with autism (and no, it's not a medical conspiracy or trend. They tend to present differently to autistic boys and men, and are good at masking). My daughter masked beautifully until her diagnosis. bbc.com/news/articles/cpvl7d…

So proud of my boy Will and his band. Their original number performed today at the Gershwin Room at the legendary Espy in Melbourne is incredible.

One of the greatest cinematic moments. She was excusing Hubbell for not being man enough to accept and embrace her complexity, intellect and challenge, and accepting his embrace of taking the easier path. Love this scene so much. share.google/EjxgLyNCGxYZfQg…
