If you’ve watched the YouTube channel, Scotland History Tours, or ABC’s Stuff the British Stole then you’ll have heard Bruce Fummey telling stories from Scotland’s history. In April, he comes to Hobart to tell you stories from Scotland’s history LIVE… and with more jokes.
Named Scottish Comedian of the Year in 2012, with numerous appearances and award nominations at Fringe festivals in Edinburgh, Perth WA, Adelaide and New Zealand he now brings his brand of crass, but self-deprecating humour to Tasmania with a taste of Scotland.

Jazz isn’t always gritty, big-city music.
Float in the interstellar peace of Nova Nova.
Contemplate the mystery of a Low Moon.
Lie back and watch the Clouds, or a wedge tail Ride the Thermals.
Spend a day by the Seamless Sea or the River Jordan ….
Join us for these natural delights and many more.

FREE EVENT – Everyone is welcome. No registration, reservation, or sign-up required; it’s a first-come, first-seated event.
Timber Hawkeye is the bestselling author of Buddhist Boot Camp, Faithfully Religionless, and The Opposite of Namaste. His books and the Buddhist Boot Camp Podcast offer a secular mindfulness practice to be at peace with the world (both within and around us).
His intention is to awaken, enlighten, enrich, and inspire.
A recent interview that briefly sums it all up:
“After trying to find traditional success, love, and happiness by working in Corporate America for over a decade, marrying and divorcing young, and living in a condo with designer clothes and a sports car, Timber Hawkeye looked at his imported Italian furniture one day and realized Tyler Durden was right: the things you own end up owning you, and it’s not until you lose everything that you are free to do anything. So, Timber quit his job, sold everything he ever owned, and moved to Hawaii with just a backpack and the intention to live a simple and uncomplicated life.
With nothing but newfound time on his hands, Timber simultaneously studied world religions and psychology to better understand what people believe and why we believe what we do.”
Mindfulness doesn’t make other people less irritating, it makes us less irritable. It’s not about living in a bubble where nobody pushes your buttons, it’s about getting to a point where you don’t have any buttons that can be pushed.
