Today marks the anniversary of the referendum that gave the Aborigines of Australia the vote. It just doesn’t seem long enough does it? It’s scary to think it was only 11 years before I was born.

Now don’t get me wrong, I love Australia and there’s a lot to be proud of. However, the natural beauty, the work hard - play harder ethic and the myriad sporting achievements of the Clever Country don’t excuse the way we’ve treated those who were there first.

I know it can’t take away the hurt but this Australian is sorry.

The annual festival of wonderful Eurotrash has been and gone for another year. Serbia’s boring drag king may have won but the Ukranians were the real stars.

The weirder the better as far as I’m concerned, damn that Balkan vote stacking…

I miss the Late Show, Australian Broadcasting Corporation style.

“Wait until I’m alert and aware Mick!”. Yeah, for yer mind.
