No Limits update!

No Limits has started! 6.30 pm Monday nights in Australian capital cities.

It is truly a privilege to be a cast member/writer on the show. I have made brilliant friends. I just feel like I fit in with these people. Everytime I see them it's so much fun.

And the messages we put out there are very important. When I see the credits, tears well up - I am so proud to be a part of No Limits.

You can view the website.

And the bio page.

Watch past episodes here.

Here is Phin's arm, me, Louis and Elvira on set.

This is a sketch I wrote and acted in. Kate Erin Miller is the other actor. It's based on an actual event.


No Limits. Get it into ya!

Louis Rowe benefit concert - The Corner Hotel, Richmond

I've met some pretty fantastic people this year! One of them has been Louis Rowe, who is my co-star on No Limits. Louis is a muso working at a cafe in Melbourne.

A few years back Louis had a scooter accident in Thailand and severed his spinal cord. This meant he lost all feeling from below his belly button, and is now unable to walk.

Louis has been receiving stem cell treatment to help him walk again. He has traveled to India and China a few times to receive this treatment and plans to go back to India next March to receive more treatment. The treatment is working slowly for Louis.

Here is a video of Louis training for stem cell treatment.


A benefit concert was held yesterday at the Corner Hotel to help fund Louis' next trip. I caught up with my friends Elvira and Jo and a couple of others, and Louis of course.

It was a fantastic afternoon featuring music by legends of Australian rock, and a song or two by Louis.

The line-up was Charles Jenkins, Nick Barker (from Nick Barker and the Reptiles), Kim Salmon, Dave Graney, Brian Hooper (from Beasts of Bourbon) and Ash Naylor (from Even). I loved the story telling through their music.

I met and interviewed a few of the musicians for a future article, and though I was only familiar with a few of their musical histories, I was a little star-struck.
