Chris Bath Instagram - I never worked with him, in fact I always worked at the opposition network in Sydney.  But I’ll never forget the day he made a beeline for me at a funeral (of all places) & blew me away with his praise & kind words of encouragement & then his sense of humour.  I spent my childhood with him in my lounge room telling me everything I needed to know (never imagining I might try to do the same when I grew up), so that day, as we mourned a much loved colleague was the ultimate personal “Brian told me so” moment, & so very special to me.  Vale & thank you Mr Henderson.
Chris Bath Instagram - My Dad didn’t want a funeral, didn’t want the “hoo ha”, he said.  At the risk of having him haunt me forever, which I wouldn’t mind because I’d really like to have him around, I’m posting this because celebrating the dead is for the living, & there are so many people who will read this who also loved him.  Dad was a people person.  He loved people and people loved him.  He was one of those Dads that all your friends loved, one of those magic people with a gift for effortlessly making other people feel good. He wasn’t loud. Dad was just quietly, effortlessly funny, a larrikin energy tractor beam that drew in anyone in his orbit. He would’ve killed it in show business but he was a draftsman by trade who ended up a precast concrete guru, the son of a welder & a machinist (who had to give up work once she married 🤦🏻‍♀️). The thing is, when Dad had two girls of his own, and lived in a house with three women (interesting during teenage years, he used to say, as we all “cycled” together), he was never sexist.  We grew up thinking we could do anything because he told us so.  I’d hang out with Dad in the garage learning to use tools, how to mow & edge the lawn perfectly and wash the car.  Terrified, I’d cling to his much loved Hobie Cat as he taught me to sail, pretending I loved hooning at breakneck speed across Toowoon Bay and heading out to sea, just to be near him.  Dancing concerts probably evened up the terror score - more like an endurance event for Dad, he’d sit at Parramatta Town Hall, tortured for hours, just to see his girls on stage for a poofteenth of a second.  I always wonder if in those moments he regretted working so hard with Mum, to give us the opportunities they never had.
Of course, it wasn’t all roses.  Early boyfriends sometimes created “issues” for Dad, but then later on in my early 20”s, after an absolutely disastrous experience…

Chris Bath Instagram - We became mates when we worked together during the Sydney Olympics as she gave a 7 months preggers me impending first time motherhood advice (as a veteran mother of two). Now @johgriggs7 is about to embark on another @olympics & @ausparalympics broadcast, with an unconventional prep & covid complicated production set up, beginning with the Tokyo Opening Ceremony tonight.  Regardless of the covidness of it all, @johgriggs7 is the most prepared, researched Olympic commentator I’ve ever worked with.  She’s passionate about athletes and what it takes to be an Olympian & Paralympian & respects their achievements by knowing everything she can about them.  Go nail it as usual Thelma!  We’ll be watching in awe.  With love Louise xxx
Chris Bath Instagram - Trying to pluck up the courage to watch “The Newsreader” @abctv & wondering how accurate it might be.  And then the husband arrives home with this - salvaged from the destruction of regional television news by metropolitan centralisation & “commercial reality”. I was lucky enough to work in regional TV in Albury and Newcastle. And I still believe that a vibrant local media is incredibly important to regional areas to tell local stories with local knowledge and local empathy.  Those years in regional telly taught me many valuable lessons in front of a forgiving audience & I’ll always be grateful for it but….. here’s proof I worked too close to the last gasp of the ‘80’s. Thank you @nbnnews (where this pic is from) & so many wonderful people who worked there like @craigsidell & @david_threlfo for making me a better journo
Chris Bath Instagram - About last night….
He’ll kill me but so worth it.

Chris Bath Instagram - Thank you so much for your beautiful messages about Dad.  It means a lot to me & my family, especially Mum who spent so many years caring for Dad.  I also need to thank the amazing staff at McQuoin Park who cared for Dad for almost a year & when the end came, treated all of us so gently, along with a Geriatrician angel who appeared, Dr Alexandra Annesley who I wish we’d known Dad’s entire medical life instead of for a brief moment at the end 🙏🏻
Chris Bath Instagram - So yesterday this happened & I finally got to say thank you for the amazing job she did 20 years ago.  On September 11, 2001, I had gone to bed early, preparing for my ten month old nocturnal party animal to wake me up at least five times, when the phone rang. I picked up, half asleep, & my executive producer @sabra.lane 🙌🏻 from the Sunday political interview show I then worked on said: “Sorry to wake you.  Get out of bed and turn on the TV” & hung up.  So like thousands of Australians I sat horrified with tears rolling down my  cheeks watching @shortblack_ & wondering what sort of world I was bringing our baby boy into. And there was Sandra, watching it unfold too, processing it with the same shock as the rest of us but working live on air delivering the news to us all with none of the resources that television production teams have today for rolling coverage.  Knowing what she must’ve been facing at a purely professional level, in the horror of it all, I was in awe of what she was doing and remain so to this day.  You were incredible that night Sul.  It’s a mark of the amazing human you are ❤️And thanks to the very excellent face fairy @kim_anderson1 for the pic
Chris Bath Instagram - For everyone who’s had a tough day.  Here are some big tough farm dogs ❤️❤️#swipeleft #steveandrambo #birdnerdsrusfarm

Chris Bath Instagram - Still not quite sure who I think I am (sadly not the long lost Tuscan Princess I’d hoped to be), but thanks to the outstanding researchers & crew of “Who Do You Think You Are?”, you can watch me trying to find out at 7.30pm tomorrow @sbs_australia @sbsondemand It’ll be the first time I see it too but I suspect you’ll also see many reasons why I shouldn’t be trusted to do my own hair and makeup
Chris Bath Instagram - “Who Do You Think You Are?” returns to @sbs_australia on June 8 at 7.30pm & thanks to the fabulous production crew (#swipeleft) I spent two socially distanced weeks with last November, I now can explain why regional & wild Australia resonates so much with me, which is something I never fully understood until now.  I was hoping to uncover an ancestral home in Tuscany but Covid meant we couldn’t travel overseas to find that side of the family (that’s for another episode one day) 😜 It was an amazing experience nonetheless on so many levels, from working with the magnificent production crew, which included one of Australia’s most talented directors & post EP’s Tinzar Lwyn & DOP’s Luke Peterson @creativeimmersion , to finding out things about my ancestors that I never knew.  I cannot wait to see whether I am crying through the entire episode that I’m in, because there were lots of tears!  But it’s a wonderful series & big thanks to SBS for asking me to be part of it 🙏🏻

Chris Bath Instagram - Happy birthday to the Vaseline Petroleum Jelly Prince of 1970.  He’s an absolute champion of a human - a giant man with a giant, generous heart & back in October 1970, they already knew it 🥳❤️
Chris Bath Instagram - I see pesto…
🍽️ 💚🫙🍃
Cannot believe the basil has lasted this long #birdnerdsrusfarm #yum
Chris Bath Instagram - Imagine this little girl’s delight (I mean, look at her face) being cuddled by this giant human after we found her this morning, wandering alone & injured on our hill, then picked her up in some old towels & popped her in an esky before calling the amazing Roz and Kev from @wombatrescue who reckon she’ll make a full recovery in their care & return to our hill to have a lovely life. 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Chris Bath Instagram - Steve #sideeye It’s a dog’s life.

Chris Bath Instagram - Love me a misty Sunday morning far from the madding crowd.  Why does fog enhance the birdsong?  And how about the green “lawn”, so insanely different to our last few years at #birdnerdsrusfarm #nofilter
Chris Bath Instagram - Sooooo proud of The Husband.  While I was at work on Sunday, he caught his first swarm, with zero experience & zero idea of what he was doing, despite his fear of bees.  He dialled 1800 @johgriggs7 for advice because he didn’t want to bother me & off he went on his own & caught them 👊🏻 #accidentalbeekeeper #gojimmygo #birdnerdsrusfarm 🐝
Chris Bath Instagram - Every time I have the honour of emceeing the @nswpolicelegacy #blueribbonball I meet incredible people like Senior Constable Margaret Richardson.  Margie lost her husband Sergeant Geoffrey Richardson as he tried to assist colleagues apprehending a criminal. She says telling their seven year old son that his Daddy was never coming home is the hardest thing she’s ever had to do.  His five month old brother was too young to understand.  You could’ve heard a pin drop as Margie told 800 people her story & what happened when NSW Police Legacy stepped in to help. Thank you to everyone who donated or bought a table or sponsored tonight’s fundraiser, the first in two years (thanks Covid 🙄) And thanks to Margie for making people rip open their wallets 🙌🏻 then dance & sing & mingle to tunes from the actually live on stage, awesome @nswpolice band featuring the magnificent Belinda Parsons on vocals.

We grew up thinking we could do anything because he told us so.  I’d hang out with Dad in the garage learning to use tools, how to mow & edge the lawn perfectly and wash the car.  Terrified, I’d cling to his much loved Hobie Cat as he taught me to sail, pretending I loved hooning at breakneck speed across Toowoon Bay and heading out to sea, just to be near him.  Dancing concerts probably evened up the terror score - more like an endurance event for Dad, he’d sit at Parramatta Town Hall, tortured for hours, just to see his girls on stage for a poofteenth of a second.  I always wonder if in those moments he regretted working so hard with Mum, to give us the opportunities they never had.
Of course, it wasn’t all roses.  Early boyfriends sometimes created “issues” for Dad, but then later on in my early 20”s, after an absolutely disastrous experience…

Of course, it wasn’t all roses.  Early boyfriends sometimes created “issues” for Dad, but then later on in my early 20”s, after an absolutely disastrous experience…

Caption : My Dad didn’t want a funeral, didn’t want the “hoo ha”, he said. At the risk of having him haunt me forever, which I wouldn’t mind because I’d really like to have him around, I’m posting this because celebrating the dead is for the living, & there are so many people who will read this who also loved him. Dad was a people person. He loved people and people loved him. He was one of those Dads that all your friends loved, one of those magic people with a gift for effortlessly making other people feel good. He wasn’t loud. Dad was just quietly, effortlessly funny, a larrikin energy tractor beam that drew in anyone in his orbit. He would’ve killed it in show business but he was a draftsman by trade who ended up a precast concrete guru, the son of a welder & a machinist (who had to give up work once she married 🤦🏻‍♀️). The thing is, when Dad had two girls of his own, and lived in a house with three women (interesting during teenage years, he used to say, as we all “cycled” together), he was never sexist. We grew up thinking we could do anything because he told us so. I’d hang out with Dad in the garage learning to use tools, how to mow & edge the lawn perfectly and wash the car. Terrified, I’d cling to his much loved Hobie Cat as he taught me to sail, pretending I loved hooning at breakneck speed across Toowoon Bay and heading out to sea, just to be near him.

Now @johgriggs7 is about to embark on another @olympics & @ausparalympics broadcast, with an unconventional prep & covid complicated production set up, beginning with the Tokyo Opening Ceremony tonight.  Regardless of the covidness of it all, @johgriggs7 is the most prepared, researched Olympic commentator I’ve ever worked with.  She’s passionate about athletes and what it takes to be an Olympian & Paralympian & respects their achievements by knowing everything she can about them.  Go nail it as usual Thelma!  We’ll be watching in awe.  With love Louise xxx

And then the husband arrives home with this - salvaged from the destruction of regional television news by metropolitan centralisation & “commercial reality”. I was lucky enough to work in regional TV in Albury and Newcastle. And I still believe that a vibrant local media is incredibly important to regional areas to tell local stories with local knowledge and local empathy.  Those years in regional telly taught me many valuable lessons in front of a forgiving audience & I’ll always be grateful for it but….. here’s proof I worked too close to the last gasp of the ‘80’s. Thank you @nbnnews (where this pic is from) & so many wonderful people who worked there like @craigsidell & @david_threlfo for making me a better journo

Chris Bath - 1.7K Likes - Thank you so much for your beautiful messages about Dad.  It means a lot to me & my family, especially Mum who spent so many years caring for Dad.  I also need to thank the amazing staff at McQuoin Park who cared for Dad for almost a year & when the end came, treated all of us so gently, along with a Geriatrician angel who appeared, Dr Alexandra Annesley who I wish we’d known Dad’s entire medical life instead of for a brief moment at the end 🙏🏻

Chris Bath - 1.5K Likes - So yesterday this happened & I finally got to say thank you for the amazing job she did 20 years ago.  On September 11, 2001, I had gone to bed early, preparing for my ten month old nocturnal party animal to wake me up at least five times, when the phone rang. I picked up, half asleep, & my executive producer @sabra.lane 🙌🏻 from the Sunday political interview show I then worked on said: “Sorry to wake you.  Get out of bed and turn on the TV” & hung up.  So like thousands of Australians I sat horrified with tears rolling down my  cheeks watching @shortblack_ & wondering what sort of world I was bringing our baby boy into. And there was Sandra, watching it unfold too, processing it with the same shock as the rest of us but working live on air delivering the news to us all with none of the resources that television production teams have today for rolling coverage.  Knowing what she must’ve been facing at a purely professional level, in the horror of it all, I was in awe of what she was doing and remain so to this day.  You were incredible that night Sul.  It’s a mark of the amazing human you are ❤️And thanks to the very excellent face fairy @kim_anderson1 for the pic

I was hoping to uncover an ancestral home in Tuscany but Covid meant we couldn’t travel overseas to find that side of the family (that’s for another episode one day) 😜 It was an amazing experience nonetheless on so many levels, from working with the magnificent production crew, which included one of Australia’s most talented directors & post EP’s Tinzar Lwyn & DOP’s Luke Peterson @creativeimmersion , to finding out things about my ancestors that I never knew.  I cannot wait to see whether I am crying through the entire episode that I’m in, because there were lots of tears!  But it’s a wonderful series & big thanks to SBS for asking me to be part of it 🙏🏻
