David Foster: Tazmazing!
I'm not sure why but this made me cry...
'WORLD champion axeman David Foster may not be a likely poster boy for gay rights.
However, these days the prominent North-West Tasmanian is just as happy to be championing same-sex marriage as he is woodchopping.
The reason? His daughter Sally, her partner Lily and their daughter Wren, who soon turns one.
Foster will speak on Tuesday in support of same-sex marriage at a forum in Hobart - something he admits would not have happened before Sally sat down with him and his wife Jan four years ago.
"I think she (Sally) didn't want to (come out) earlier, because I was a bit anti-that and maybe she didn't want to upset me," he said.
"She sat my wife and I down and said `I want to tell you something' and that's how we spoke as a family."
