Circus Oz

Last night Mycroft saw Circus Oz.  This is a truly amazing experience.  Acrobats, clowns, music and showpersonship combined for a fun evening.  Particularly impressive are the names of the performers - 'Count Blowhard' I thought was a pretty cool one.  For now I shall have to get by with 'Mycroft Snooks'. 

The Circus Oz program for the evening did welcome witty heckling.  There did not seem to be any, probably one needs to practice first before attempting witty heckles in public. 

Less impressive was the tennis I watched tonight from Brisbane.  The match was quite competitive, but was let down by a woeful interview by the courtside interviewer.  The interview began as trivial and annoying and went downhill from there.  "Do you like Vegimite?" was one of the less annoying questions, which is saying something.  Broadcasters take note - you can do better than that!
