STRANGE THINGS I HAVE DONE IN MY SHORT LIFE THUS FAR

(and other oddities)

Eaten dinner with The Doors (remaining members thereof)

Been in the Big Brother House whilst housemates were inside

Hidden reconnaissance style in the middle of a film set photographing a “tornado”

Adjusted the bra straps of some well endowed ladies for a TV shoot

Built and plastered a wall of tiles and attached a toilet roll for a photo shoot

Pressed the live feed button on the sound mixing desk to allow live broadcast of a concert

Served champagne to Gough Whitlam

Bumped into (literally) Mr Big – Chris Noth

Created a 10 meter high curtain of mixed media tape for arts sake

Escorted a TV personality to the ladies and had to hum lightly to drown out the sound

Been heckled at by Josh Kelley

Snuck backstage at a premier industry event to mingle with the famous emcees

Covered an entire two rooms of about 50 square feet in tin foil

Moved approximately 60 different animals from one shelter to another in a day

Written 4622 words in an effort to say three important ones

Sung in front of 10,000 people, but not in front of my mum – ever

Put my hand into a rabbit hole, only to retrieve two baby rabbits who then became pets

Owned a pet echidna

Been a radio announcer reporting on childrens ski activites

Dated a child star… when they were no longer a child star

Which of the Doors? You snuck backstage! ooooo

Writing the words~ Did you find that there are many ways to say it, or is the simple three word way the best?

You must really love your mum to be shy? about singing for her~

Baby bunnies for pets... I loved the Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter~ I had to have it read to me every night, I think! Cute bunnies with clothes~

Radio announcing seems like a fun way to use the voice! Was this live announcing?

It must have been a dream come true to date a child star~

In no particular order...

Ray Manzarek, Robby Krieger and Ian Astbury

Saying something simple is always harder than saying something complex

Mum = a very wonderful woman without whom I would not be who i am today

Bunnies are pretty neat

Live radio announcing was an excellent experience of which I didn't then understand the value at the age of 10

Child stars come with BIG problems!!!
