I was supposed to be writing this on the Tuesday. Instead, I am writing this on a Thursday. And I can only blame it on myself.

Review: Annie The Musical in Brisbane

Review: Mary Poppins at QPAC: Practically Perfect!
I did not know that the author of the Mary Poppins book series was born only about 255 kms (161 miles) from where I sit today (Brisbane, Australia), in a sleepy old two called Maryborough (The name of the town probably has nothing to do with the name of the character that the author created).
