I turned 30 today.
The last year was an emotional roller coaster. However, aside from some frustrations, I think I came out on top. I'm engaged, the new Hot Cross record is out, I pay a little rent for a lot of space, I inherited an amazing dog ... I really cannot complain.
Now, down to business. Here are some Hot Cross dates. Please come and say hello; it might be your only chance to lambast me in person for all the stuff I write that you don't like. Don't be shy, I can take it like a man.
