What's in your pocket right now: My mobile, 70 cents, a beer bottle top (hey, I liked the trivia question on it!) a receipt that’s been through the wash.

Best ever thing that has happened to you: Neil Young concert, Myer music bowl in Melbourne a few years ago!!! (Or, if my wife is reading this, you and the kids are the best thing that’s ever happened to me darling!)

Worst job you have ever had: Opening the local newsagent on Saturdays at 4am. Freezing, wet, heavy hard work.

Movember Mark, doin it for the blokes.
