Grouse is well used in Sydney as well...we may not be the cultural hub but we're still cool

Thanks for the grouse help...

Just had a look through the Melb Jazz Fringe website. It is awesome. All the info is great and the festival looks amazing. It's going to kick arse over Umbria-fest.

Please raise your glasses and join me in a toast to the Jazz Fringe crew - you know who you r. Here's to a great festival!

Can't wait.

Instead, I sign off with this short test:
