The home movies of Mr PC Trumble provide a wonderful record of what it was like to grow up as the sons of a leading light of the Melbourne Establishment during the Sixties. Wonderful, a privileged existence, although as the icon for this YouTube edit shows there were moments of existential teenage angst. Here's Nick, wondering what on earth he is doing at a parrot farm on the Gold Coast.
Thanks to Hank Williams and Bob Dylan for the chirpy soundtrack, a much better choice after Across the Universe was blocked.
After obtaining a law degree from Monash University, Nick taught law. He then worked for a suburban legal practice, something which completely destroyed what little enthusiasm for the law remained after a couple of years of teaching it. He abandoned the legal profession, which had sustained at least three previous generations of Trumbles, and clawed his way into the advertising business. He is currently a partner in the small advertising agency, Jump Creative. Check out their website at jumpcreative.com.au
