Who Gives A Crap Friday

You can almost set your watch to it. Every year, around Spring Racing Carnival time, Barry Humphries pops back home, the Australian need for international validation kicks in and the press fawns all over whatever pithy little one-liners appear at the front of his motorised tie-rack of "wit".

Gather round then, little Melburnians, and let good old Uncle Barry tell you what your city's all about.

Few people know that I always travel with a copy of Melways street directory - an increasingly chubby volume - in my hand luggage.

"How delightful! Even when travelling the world in a lifestyle infinitely more glamorous than ours, he carries a secret little reminder of the quaint little city that hasn't been his home for thirty-odd years. And he's right! The Melways is becoming rather cumbersome. He knows us so well."

At a cafe table in the Piazza San Marco in Venice, or a ski lift in Switzerland, in the garden of a ranch in Argentina or a beach in Denmark, I peruse this well-thumbed guide to my birthplace

"What a marvellously humble man. All those outrageously exclusive locales with their rich American tourists and $14 coffees and all he can think of is Melbourne. Those foreigners don't know what they're missing out on."

and I dream of Hawksburn, Rosanna, Aspendale, Gardiner, Dennis and Spotswood. The still-to-be explored heartland of my favourite city.

"Look, dear. He knows the names of all those suburbs that Judy and Daryl from Canberra had never heard of. He really is just like us, isn't he? Aren't we lucky that such a wonderful fellow thinks our city worthwhile."


He can say whatever he likes, I just don't know why we listen.

I had a good laugh last year when there was all that coverage of his involvement (and Geoffrey Rush's) in the protests against the redevelopment of ... Camberwell? Elsternwick? Whatever Station. They were all marching down the mean streets of the inner east with their thermos flasks and someone in the paper said they appeared to be 'protesting the rights of middle class people to wear tartan in public.' Heh.

(my grammar has gone to shit, by the way)

Haha, Gold.

You are so right, and watch out for Nick Cave who is becoming/is the new Barry Humphries - with his annual swing into Melb between Sao de Janeiro and his preferred neighbourhood in Brighton England near Julie Burchill, Jools Holland and Dame Judi Dench

Oi, Nick's all right!

But don't forget Clive James, fast disappearing up his own expansive backside, consistently fawned over by the Aussie media. I even recall Andrew Bolt of all people saying that James is "a fine poet"!

Nick is a songwriter, a novelist, a screenwriter.
This does not mean that he is 'all right'.
If you would regard his achievements as a pier, I can tell you there are many dead bodies supporting it.
