A pleasant surprise to see Rose Porteous make an appearance on Failblog, right below an unfortunately dildo-shaped ET "finger light".

Where is this from?? I think I need to watch this doco... I love it when she refers to her "goodie bag"!

It was from a doco aired on the ABC in 2002 called 'Rose'. It was brilliant. I had it on videotape, but sadly no longer have tapes...or a video player for that matter. Sort of rare thing that'd be hard to find on the internets.

But here are the hightlights:

- She places a nappy on her dog who is on heat, to act as a contraceptive.

- She buys her husband William 7 shirts - for $2,400.

- She is super proud when she 'only' takes out $11,000 this month for housekeeping.

- She spends $700 a week on her poodles.

- She abuses all the staff.

- She loves to have her gay friends around who come over and play dressups in her giant walk in wardrobe

- She prepares a dinner party for her 10th wedding anniversary, including 4kg salmon, 4kg garlic prawns and a 24kg roasted pig.

- In front of said crowd, she serenades her man in karaoke...and absolutely cannot hold a note. I think the song was 'You are so beautiful'.

I was gold, I tells ya.

Apparently she used to live around where I once worked in Hawksburn. She built up quite the reputation for abusing shop people. I also visited Prix de l'amore in Perth, which was quite the event. I could just glimpse her giant portrait beside the "grand staircase". I practically know her!
