1. I haven't been to the movies since 1986, & have never owned a television, tho I did have custody of my brother's TV while he was o/s in 1978.

2. I have a friend who is an actor & didn't realise for months after meeting him that he is very well known. Several years ago I ran across him & a few of our friends, & a stranger, Tony. Everyone else knew they were meeting Sir Anthony Hopkins, I said hello Tony. Well, what else would I say?

3. I am definitely the only non-performer running a folk club in Sydney & maybe Australia. I love singing along with the choruses but can't hold a tune on my own or recogise a note. I just love it when the choir leaders blow a little note & all hum it then start singing. I also watch bemused when guitarists are tuning up (sounds all right to me, I think to myself!)

4. Back in the days when I had my brother's TV, I lived on Bondi Beach (everyone knows Bondi, it's Australia's most famous beach) & I never stepped on the sand, nor did I dip a toe in the water. But I did look at it every day when I caught the bus to work. I like looking at the ocean. I was reminded of this by Mudlark's wrong guess on the Mystery Santa Goofy Hints thread.

5. All Australian's love sport (generalisation) I hate sport - playing it or watching it.

6. All Australian's love beer (another generalisation) - my normal drink is water, with an occasional fruit juice.

maybe I'll think of more obscure facts later
