Don't You Know Who I Used to Be?

Don't You Know Who I Used to Be?

From Manolos to motherhood....

Julia Morris is the first to admit she does not know much, but these are some of things she knows for sure:
Writing a Logie speech when you are aged eight is not normal
Cathy Freeman is the only woman in the world who looks good in white Lycra
$22,000 Aussie dollars converts to about £23
Mojitos are not one of the five major food groups
'Overnight romance' sounds better than 'one night stand'
Tom Jones is not the only dark-haired Welsh man with sex appeal
The British do not appreciate a 'Title' when it is bought on the internet
A blue cross on a white stick will change your life

With her usual honesty Julia opens up about the good things (making a career in the UK, meeting her husband, getting married and falling pregnant) and the not so good (dealing with homesickness, leaving the party behind and coming to terms with motherhood).

Don't You Know Who I Used to Be? is a delightful memoir from one of Australia's best-loved comedians about moving to the UK, frocking up, dating, getting married, giving birth to her first child and coming home...not always wearing Manolos.

Julia Morris Since returning to Australia last year after eight years in the UK, 'Lady' Julia Morris simply hasn't stopped. She has featured on every major commercial television channel, on shows including Good News Week, Sunrise and Thank God You're Here- and was series team captain on Foxtel's Astra award-winning The Singing Office. Julia and her opera superstar partner David Hobson not only won the third series of Channel 7's hit show It Takes Two, but, with their interpretations of songs like Tina Turner's 'We Don't Need Another Hero' and the 'Habanera' from Bizet's Carmen, also provided the nation with some of the most memorable TV moments of 2008. This is her first book.
