I now know how Papa Bear felt after the Goldilocks home invasion. Someone not only had been sitting in my chair for the opening night of Dusty at the Lyric Theatre last night, they were still in it - and they weren't going to budge because they had a ticket for the very same seat on the very same night. Nobody could tell me how it happened and the usher, who was overstretched as it was looking after two doors, was clueless as to what to do (so she just started looking after other people instead). I'm just glad a friend of mine was also there, and that his wife had got sick at the last moment and was unable to come. I sat in her place instead.
It's been a busy week of broadcasting for me, with spots on ABC Coast FM on Wednesday (now a regular weekly gig with Mary-Lou Stephens) and Thursday (a half-time report last night on Dusty) and this morning's chat on 612 ABC with Spencer Howson. Spencer and I spoke about the sacking of Extra host Rick Burnett, the Dusty opening night and what happens when you type "Windsor Station" into the Translink site.
