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. I am trying to get two novels in a trilogy ready for e-publication, love my iPhone & iPod, and am secretly Canadian in my soul. Life is fun, exciting and joyful and I aim to make the absolute most of it!
Review: “Chitty Chitty Bang Bang” is wizard … smashing … keen on stage
Last night, for exactly two hours and thirty-five minutes, I was a kid again. A whooping and hollering kid, delighted with life, and frankly not caring who knew it. No, this delightful reversion was not due to some bizarre act of DNA-reversing science, cooked up in some off-the-grid lab Continue Reading
Behold the bright pink unicorns of “Community”

We all know the feeling. You’re enjoying a luminously transcendant night out with someone special, enclosed in your own perfect bubble of a world and quite naturally enough, you don’t want it to come to an end. It’s an odd mixture of exhilaration and melancholy as you’re carried away Continue Reading

Some lighthearted “The Big Bang Theory” fun for the weekend
I discovered this gem on the web today, traced it back to its original home – made sense it was the official site the-big-bang-theory.com – and had to share it since (a) I love this show and (b) the “Soft Kitty” song rocks and this homage to it is wonderful Continue Reading
R’ha: the future of sci-fi greatness
There’s a huge amount of buzz on the interweb today about a little six minute sci-fi film from an aspiring German film director, and not without good cause. It is, quite simply, amazing. Made over seven months and drawing from established sci-fi properties like Terminator and Battlestar Galactica without Continue Reading
Teaser poster for “The Walking Dead” mid-season 3 return released
As I suspected the Governor, who lost an eye and his zombie-fied daughter in a violent tussle with Michonne in his very own secret fishtanks-full-of-zombie-heads chamber o’ horrors – the perfect place to rest and relax after tending to your Stepford Wives-esque refuge from the apocalypse don’t you think?
