Cowgirl junkies

CM and I couldn't get enough of The Sunny Cowgirls when we attended the premiere of "Dust Will Settle", a documentary about the Aussie C&W sister act. Free booze and gourmet nibblies; a chat with the lovely lasses themselves, Sophie and Celeste Clabburn; an enjoyable 30-minute doco (coming to the Country Music Channel on July 3); plus a squiz at "Acting Stupid", the first clip from their third album. These ever-smilin' chicks are the dinkum deal – they were raised in rural Victoria, have worked as jillaroos, live on a farm outside Tamworth and, where possible, travel to gigs in a ute with their dog!


Topnotch telly: I'm enthralled by TVN's live coverage of Royal Ascot Week. Top-hatted to-do, eccentric pundits, universally well-spoken interviewees and unfamiliar champion gee-gees (except for Henrythenavigator – I know him). And horse racing, of course!

My back continues to give me grief :-(
