Billy Connolly show at Hyatt Regency

With Anthony on Thursday I went to have a look at Billy Connolly’s exhibition of prints at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Darling Harbour, the works are whimsical and charming. Anthony did most of the talking with the event organiser and we found out that the prints’re mostly in runs of 295. The price for some of them is around $1500 unframed so they’re quite dear.

Afterward I made my way to the Rocks and had some food because I’d skipped lunch, then waited in the antechamber of the State Library ahead of a talk involving Michelle Cahill and Bri Lee who would talk about Michelle’s recently-published novel ‘Daisy and Woolf’. It just so happened that it was the day the novel was being released in the UK. The conversation between the two authors was lively and informative, covering a range of topical issues.
