My performance on ‘that’ Saturday was a lot of fun, although I could have done with a bit more brushing up on the belly dancing.
I met up with the Howling Fruitcake, one of Luke Wúrmli-Quan's comedy characters. Luke has spent a lifetime performing and has more stories of musicians than my substack page.
You can check out the Howling Fruitcake on the link below, but only if you don’t mind a bit of swearing…
The following week, I was performing with The Flames in the Edinburgh Festival, where I drank way too much coffee. It is storytelling on steroids, accompanied by music and black-and-white footage in the background. The performance is a celebration of age, and I’m so grateful to be a part of it.

The Egg Shed Recap
Mex explains to Bunnie and the gang about fertilization on Planet Hy Man, which, according to Don, sounds as much fun as peeling a hard-boiled egg.
The Egg Shed Part Two
Bonding doesn’t always require words
Woody arrived back as the Ferry appeared on the horizon. He slid into the back, balancing a tray of cappuccinos and bags of rolls, catching the tail end of Mex’s ‘how I saved Planet Hy Man from the perils of men and their inability to put down the toilet seat’ speech…
The toilet seat being a wee joke she had picked up from Bunnie.
When Mex appeared at Bunnie’s door, head to toe in leather—plus whip Bunnie assumed she was heading for a fancy-dress/fetish party and was lost.
Mex was an imposing sight until she removed her six-inch heels, and now, dressed in a ‘leisure suit’ and trainers with a confused look, she was as impressive as an empty bag of crisps. She was more lost and vulnerable than fetish-like, and Bunnie ached to help.
Bunnie assumed that Mex, being a woman, felt the same things she did, that she was bondable. She had no idea that Mex, a man spy who defended her city, had as much oestrogen in her system as a Mallee bull. Just as she had no idea that her woman-to-woman chats were as confusing to Mex as the roll-on-off system of the ferry, she just assumed Mex always looked that way.
But this shed had her intrigued.
