Don’t give up if you’re in the @V_and_A Bowie queue. I was in it for almost 25 hours and just got two tickets for the exact times I wanted for our trip to the UK in December! Woo hoo!

@midgeure1 Hope you’re not too tired after your Melbourne show later this year Midge. We’d love to say hi - loved your lockdown shows during Covid :)

I normally pop out to the merch area but totally wiped out tonight, tired but can’t sleep. Great audience though 🙏

Just got back from seeing @midgeure1 at Daryl's House Club tonight. Fantastic set, poor Midge got super cold (it's about 50F) so couldn't meet the fans post gig. Thanks to Charlie for the signatures (wink wink) and Chris for the setlist! Love you guys!!

@HelenSnapper @danielmloftus wow, this is spicy! Thank you so much for this. This pretty much confirms Amy also conceived another baby in Marrickville a few years later..

#Genealogy Twitter q: Doing some research and came across this notice in a NSW Australia Police Gazette from 1914. Reginald (25) and Amy (21) were never married and had no known children together, yet he's charged for child desertion. Does this suggest they had a child together??

@MST_Writes Great advice from Clare and thanks for sharing Michelle. I withdrew from the game and it’s been hard to get going again. Good luck!

that unsuccessful male applicants tend to resubmit over and over again (‘but it’s such a good idea!’) while female applicants tend to withdraw from the game (‘I knew it wasn’t a very good idea’). Down with internalised patriarchy!"

@Pulpcurry @Tim_Coronel I second Dennis Severs house. Been twice. You wander in silence and the house really does speak to you and you feel time, only way I can describe it.

None on this list appeal - anything Painters & Dockers is my go to - Melbourne is Australia’s music capital, but what songs immortalise the city? theage.com.au/culture/music/…

@history2wheeler Absolutely Peter! I was a regular goer at their concerts in the 80s and I loved that song!
