We celebrate anniversaries and birthdays which happen this week. Today is Towel Day – and if you are a fan of Douglas Adams and the Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy you will understand; if not you can listen and learn.

We remember that actor Christopher Reeve, who played Superman, was cruelly paralysed after a horse-fall; we celebrate [Sir] Ian McKellan as a great positive gay icon, and Bishop Gene Robinson who both have birthdays this week.

This week we commemorate National Reconciliation Week; the 1967 Referendum and the 1992 Mabo Native Title determination. Allan Hollinghurst [gay], Christopher Marlowe [gay] and Kylie [gay icon] are all remembered this week as well. Plus some trivia and mirth.
