A very proud Father
« on: March 07, 2016, 09:13:57 PM »
 It makes me very proud to see my son achieving his dream in acting.

He is currently traveling Australia in the Gold: The ABBA Tribute 'Dancing Queen: The 40th Anniversary Tour' 2016.

He is heading to WA after the Tassie Leg.

If you get a chance to see him let me know how he goes  ;D

Great news, my son Jack, will be playing the son of Paul Hogan in a new mini series being made by Ch7. His role in the mini series will be helping Paul Hogan write Crocodile Dundee.
