Hi everyone,

I've struggled this morning.. woke up with a cold so makeup artist, Sonya, had her work cut out to get rid of the Rudolph look around my nose!
She keeps coming in to the set between bulletins to patch up the snoz!
 
Human Nature are always great to have on.. they're so professional.. in before 6:30 warming up in the studio.. with Mary Wilson from the Supremes today.
 
A big day for Beretts too.. he's usually sitting next to me at the back of the studio.. checking scripts between sport bulletins and reading through emails.. but today he's in Canberra ready to run the Torch Relay.
 
Gee Human Nature and Mary have just started and it's an amazing sound inside the studio.. Brownie just emailed to say how much he loved it too.
 
Bit of controversy today though.. about my beautiful Carla Zampatti jumper.. which Kochie and some viewers seem to think looks like it has a rogue sock attached to it.. or is somehow storing some kind of bandage!
 
How mean!
 
This is what I have to put up with!
Too bad.. I love it.
nat.

Nat in my opinion you would have to be the most beautiful woman on TV. The way you put up with Koshie is admirable you have more talent in your little finger than he has in his whole body. Thank you for being such a wonderful ambassador for Bunbury WA. Hope you are over your cold soon.

In Wollongong, some parking areas are taxi zones 6PM to 6AM but taxis don't use them. People often get booked $135 fine, especially Thursday night when the shops are open. I warn people, but cops told me I have to move on or be arrested. I plan to be there Thursday 6PM! Can you come & see?

Nat,
If you were at home in Bunbury and needed an ambulance would it be staffed by paramedics or first aid volunteers? How would you know? Is that fair to you and your neighbours?

Kurt Fearnley: I was relief teaching in Blayney when I met Kurt as a young school boy. The first thing that struck me was his smile and contagious positive outlook at all times. I see nothing has changed with this outstanding Australian. Although I never saw him again, it is a testament to the power of his personality that I have not forgotten him more than 15 years later.
