There are 2 kinds of people in the world
Those who say "If you've got it, flaunt it"
& those who say "If you've got it, spare a thought for those who haven't"
2022 what a year!Spent 7 incredible months in Oz and NZ. Played Mike again after 37 years (& got the girl). Got my bike licence again after a 20 yr absence. My divine son turned 6. Got my first tattoos. My ex wife married her girlfriend. Met Billy Joel & my mother turned 87 HNY!!
Lost my beautiful Mum today. ‘Kicked the bucket’ as she would say. What a sharp, fierce & witty woman Anne was, until Alzheimer’s struck in 2010. It’s been a long & winding road. A fitting song 4 ur departure Mum. Tracy & I will miss u enormously. We’ll always love u XX
Thanku to everyone who watched our
@NeighboursTV
finalé and for all ur lovely words. I’m so glad to have been invited back to join the current cast & forever grateful for everything this show has given me. Of course I’m also very happy Jane & I found each other once again too! X
Being a die hard Billy Joel fan since the 70's it was more than an honour to meet the man himself and finally get to see him in concert. Of course being invited by my dear friend
@kylieminogue
made it all the more special. I still cannot believe it. Thank you KM...Always a woman!
I posted a tweet yesterday that I shouldn’t have, which to prevent upsetting anyone else I have now deleted. A fuller apology and explanation of the point I was raising is attached xx Guy
I’m perplexed by this referendum result & devastated for all of us, especially 1st nations people, but all of us who share this land. Are we so confronted by our history that we can’t face it? This is a great shame. Reconciliation will prevail in time. I am forever hopeful.
I just want to say a big thank you to all of you who shared ur love & support after my beautiful Mum, Anne passed away. Her funeral was so moving and she will be greatly missed. She was so proud of me & Tracy & would be overwhelmed to see such support. Thanku, thanku! Xxx
Holy cow, seems I just won a logie! Thank you so much to all who voted and all who watched Jack Irish over the years. A big thank you to my friends Matt Cameron, Andrew Knight, Ian Collie, Andrew Anastasios, the ABC & all the creators of the show, & of course Peter Temple....
Dec 2nd 1985. On this day 35 years ago I started filming a little tv show in Ramsey street. Some of you may have heard of it. I was just 18 and a tad nervous. I met wonderful people and have great memories. I'll always appreciate this incredible opportunity. Thanku!!
@neighbours
So happy to be back in Northern Ireland - One of the most evocative places on earth……working again with my pal, the incomparable Andrew Baird, & my very talented friend Alex Pettyfer. Dream job!

I'm so sorry to hear Neighbours will end. Aside from being the incredible launch pad it's been no one can deny the effect it's had throughout millions of homes around the world. It's bonded all of us in immeasurable ways. A true honour to have been a part of it. Great memories Xx
In this world of man made wars, man made climate change & man made offence because we struggle to evolve as a species, the beauty of a new

song sadly won’t bring back innocent lives lost, however it is a spark of light that might just inspire some well needed love❤️

hotel quarantine here in Perth. I have Jack Irish new scripts,
@kylieminogue
new album, A Maton acoustic, my mini Protools rig, the USA election and some Cadbury.....I should be right......
We all want attention, sure. But why has ‘Taking offence’ become the only or ‘normal’ way to get our heads above water? It’s a sad state of affairs. We’re better than that in 2023, aren’t we, people?

I just want to shout out to everybody in Melbourne and Victoria. I know my word is probably meaningless but I want to say I'm thinking of you and thinking of what you're having to endure.
Hang in there.....XX
To anyone with their own Youtube channel. It’s pretty clear you want us to ‘like & subscribe’. So you can stop saying that now. Just like we don’t need to say ‘www’ anymore, right?
A wonderful piece of writing my beautiful Mother gave me many years ago. Sadly her Alzheimer's means she doesn't know me anymore. However, I know I'll carry her wisdom with me forever.....
I’m in shock & utterly devastated at the news of losing my long time friend & mentor Brian Walsh. Your compassion & support will never be forgotten mate, nor will ur guidance as we journeyed down Ramsay st & beyond. Love you Walshie. May you travel peacefully sweet friend. RIP xx
Merry Merry everyone! Hope your Xmas has been wonderful! I finally Watched 'Barbie'.
I've been a fan of Greta's since Andrew Bujalski intro'd me to her work years ago. But wow, so impressed yet again! Not to mention the onscreen superstar presence of MR and RG! Bravo, Brava! xxxx
Like I said……Say no more!!! A big congrats to all the boys & people involved at
@GeelongCats
. Such an impressive performance. I’m in tears!!!!!!! Incredible!!!
How lucky am I…..I just bought this stunning Canadian Boucher HG 56-B acoustic. What a beautiful instrument! From one of my favourite places in the world; Toronto. Loving being back here again & working with David Cronenberg & Vincent Cassel. All such an honour!!

Such a pleasure to finally be working with my old friend Lee Tamahori, also in my father’s homeland of NZ. Only took us 25 years…….Week 3 of ‘The Convert’ underway!
Always nice to discover an old pair of ladies undies stuffed down the back of the chair during hotel quarantine. So much for the 'deep clean' between guests......
Thirty years ago today,Neighbours was broadcasted in the UK, and it was watched by over 19.6 million people! Originally broadcast in Australia on 1st July 1987. In the UK it was 8th November 1988.

Putin is killing children.
His offence taken by the 'unfriendly' international response is irrelevant. He will die miserably within 2 years more pathetically than Saddam Hussein. In a dirt hole without honour, nobility, humanity, manhood or history. Just paranoia. Lesson learnt.
Thank you everyone for all your lovely kind messages re my Mum. Alzheimer's, like most illness' is pretty cruel really. It's comforting to know there's a bunch of us in this together. My heart goes out to you and your loved ones too. Life, eh !! xxx
Hard to find a better soundtrack…….
Of course there’s - Last temptation of Christ, Betty Blue, The Piano, Jackie, Birdy, Gallipoli & The Mission, but this - ‘Once upon a time in America’ undoes me every time…..
#Morricone
What a win !! Congrats
@GeelongCats
from here in Kentucky USA, & a big congrats to Tomahawk for turning 30 & kicking 7, and of course to Zach Tuohy for keeping Harry Taylor out of your mind........Condolences to the D's - Impressive stuff.
Working with one of the best I know -
@adrienbrody
What an honour. What class. What a privilege. Thanku to Brady Corbet for having me on board. Ah life!!!!!!!
This declaration of war on Ukraine will bring nothing but heart ache. I feel useless as I stand here in Bucharest wanting to help Romania's Northern neighbours. Putin has finally secured his place in history as nothing more than a miserable version of Hitler. Certainly, no man...
My sincerest condolences to Peter Temple's family and friends. It's truly an honour to play one of your most beloved creations. Thank you for all the colourful characters you've introduced me to and the dark paths you've led me down. Respect and Peace PT.....xxx
'BLOODSHOT' - Film # 60 !! Well, that's if I count MILDRED PIERCE, WHEN WE RISE, JACK IRISH & THE INNOCENTS as 8 films of course. Does that mean I'm cheating? No, I don't think so - It just means I'm........old (ish)....nearly....
It's not everyday u find a free working toaster on the side of the road. It's also not everyday u get 2 be in a
@radiohead
video clip. Both happened a few weeks ago. Thankfully my son (Monte) was there 4 the toaster, which he appreciated each day afterwards. He likes the clip 2.
Delores O'Riordan you woke our minds and broke our hearts with your honesty & unforgettable voice. You were a tender but powerful spirit. This is a sad day indeed. RIP beautiful lady xxx
David Gulpilil - I shall never forget the time you played didje for me. It is one of the greatest gifts I've ever received. What a welcome. What an awakening. Rest In Peace beautiful man. Your spirit shall reverberate in me, and us all, forever.
Incredible night last night seeing my extremely talented friend
@scottmatthewsuk
