I just watched a bloke walking to his car and stomping the sand out of his work boots and it was both manly and a little bit like if someone did panto of Christopher Robin and suddenly the bloke looked about seven years old and I thought you should know.

I was told by a weather report this morning that today would be mostly Saudi, and it’s been a confusing day ever since.

Kids at school call one of their teachers Grunt. I asked why, with some trepidation. He’s Scottish, they told me, and when he, Grant, introduced himself, it took them a few days to figure it out.

Oh hi twitter. I’m not here much. I’m over here, mostly. And I wrote a book? Like, a real one? It’s out really soon. Come over here and I’ll tell you about it and will also post photos of weird Fitzroy things instagram.com/lorin_clarke_o…

I wrote a book about my Dad. And me. And my family. You can pre order it here and rocket to the top of my favourite person list: instagram.com/p/Cvwwlr_hUt_/…

But are you coming to my book launch, is the big question of the day. instagram.com/p/Cvwwlr_hUt_/…

Comedian John Clarke's weekly dissection of dissembling bureaucrats and political obscurantists was a much-loved part of this program for years. His daughter Lorin has now written of his world away from the camera. Adam Harvey #abc730

Matthew Ricketson always had an ear for Dad’s work and I’m so delighted he has reviewed mine. Although I did have to resist the urge to spew while waiting for it to load…

In a new memoir, ‘Would that be funny?’ Lorin tells the Clarke family story from the inside and reveals what it was like growing up with her famous father, and the gift of being able to laugh at yourself. Lorin talks to Jim. rnz.co.nz/national/progr…

In this excerpt from her memoir on growing up with a famous comedian as a father, writer Lorinimus reflects on the mornings she spent in that most fertile ground for storytelling: the parental bed. thestory.au/articles/lorin…
