Notes on Galway
Ireland has ruined me. Here are some small notes on the past day while I go off and lie down in a dark room with no booze anywhere near me: – Galway airport is officially fun-sized. I followed the sign to departure gates and there were only two of them and one was closed. The […]

You know what I love at a gig? I tell you there is nothing better than an old woman who sits dead centre of the audience with a face of stone and does a perfectly timed yawn on every punchline. Each intake of oxygen, while possibly the result of a tiring day, or general fatigue, […]

Its the semi-finals for the English Comedian of the Year tonight. I’m meant to get people along to support and hopefully vote for me, but the amount of friends I have that are still interested in seeing me gigging are slim to none and those few are not very interested in seeing me do 7 […]

Its around that time of the year once again, when I get hayfever. As soon as the sun starts shining and the plants all start appearing and having a crazy fun flower time my face joins in the fun by slowly falling apart. My nose refuses to do anything useful and just blocks up like […]

Its a pretty lovely day today, and I, for the first time in ages, am without a gig on a Saturday. There is part of me that find this terrifying. I’m not used to gigless Saturdays and I’m not quite sure what to do without one. I had one in, but it got cancelled so […]

I haven’t yet asked Layla to look for it which means its highly likely its somewhere obvious. Layla is like an object finding magnet. I can spend literally hours looking for […]

What seems to happen if I don’t have gigs for a few days is that I get coerced into socialising at events that I would normally avoid by being busy. I then like to combine these events with seeing friends that I haven’t seen in ages and as a result end up like a social […]

Its amazing how concerned the news is with Michelle Obama’s shoes rather than the important decisions that are being made inside the G20. I don’t think the colour of her high heels is really going to have much impact on the financial or environmental climate, unless they going to be thrown at Brown. I’m currently […]

I had planned to make something nice for dinner yesterday. Planned is perhaps a slightly strong word for deciding that I might consider cooking up something considering it was my night off. I stupidly mentioned this to Layla and at numerous times during the day was then reminded about my culinary duties. I had to […]
