I am an extrovert gay man living in Sydney who loves Indian food, current affairs, music, film and reading, caramel anything, and a beautiful guy called Steve who makes every day a delight.

Life is fun, exciting and joyful and I aim to make the absolute most of it!
Weekend Pop Art #8: Grumpy Cat and Disney together? Believe it!
Grumpy Cat, a feline who has yet to find a person, event or circumstance he can’t regard with glum disinterest, and the inhabiter of one of the more prevalent, virulent, and yes, hilarious memes on the worldwide web, has been embraced by Disney. Well in a manner of speaking. Continue Reading
Now This is Music #17: Eleanor Dunlop, Chelsea Lankes, Odesza, The Royal Concept, Client Liaison
I love the modern age we live in. So much wonderful music from so many wonderful artists is available to us at the flick of a switch, so to speak, artists that we previously would never have come across unless we were possessed of infinite funds, time and indestructible Continue Reading

It is an oft used axiom that there are always two sides to every coin. But mainstream movie makers have not always been quick to honour this truism, often preferring to render their protagonists as all-capable three dimensional beings for whom no task is too great and no victory Continue Reading
TV review: The Crazy Ones (pilot episode)
Ladies and gentleman of the blogosphere I have finally found my breakout sitcom of the new season! The Crazy Ones, by TV maestro David E.

Hurrahs all around! Parks and Recreation turns 100 … and Community gets an air date!
My how time in Pawnee flies! Seems it was just yesterday a wide-eyed, optimistic and highly spirited young lady by the name of Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler) was thrilled to be the deputy director of the Parks and Recreation department of this idiosyncratic city in Indiana, dream of turning Continue Reading
Marvellous massing of movie trailers #5: Dear Mr Watterson, The Book Thief, The Grand Budapest Hotel, Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit, That Awkward Moment
Once more to the movies my friends once more! And as always the heralds to what will hopefully be engaging, rewarding and water cooler-sharing worthy films are the trailers which arrive with the sort of frequency I would like my local train provider to follow. I have a mixed Continue Reading
The Walking Dead: “Infected” (S4, E2 review)
*SOME SPOILERS AHEAD (and walkers too, no doubt)* The Walking Dead‘s “bubble o’ bliss and happiness”, never a robust creature to begin with, has well and truly burst in “Infected”. Again.
