A New Era

Its a big day for the world today. The sort of day that heralds the dawn of a new era. Yes, thats right, its the return of Fat Tuesday tonight after our blissful four week hiatus. Its looks like it’ll be a sell out show and its a truly great line-up, but as usual I’m […]

Dog Shit and Ikea

I stepped in dog shit twice yesterday. Those who are believers of superstition might say that I have had two helpings of good luck. Those who are realists would say it is doubly as unlucky to step in dog shit twice on the same day. There is nothing lucky about stepping in dog shit. Luck […]

Death of a Legend

Not much to say today apart from being a bit sad at the death of Tony Hart. True he hadn’t been on telly for 8 years but his legacy of being able to create masterpieces by scribbling with a crayon on black paper and scratching bits off to make a picture and other such wonders […]

Edinburgh and/or Bust

Comedy people are already starting to talk about the Edinburgh festival even though it is not for another 7 and a half months. There are few things that are discussed quite as often on the circuit as the festival. August is spent at the fringe, with most conversations being about how its all going. September […]

Food Glorious Food

Last night my cousin, her boyfriend, me and Layla all went for a meal at a place called Jai Krishna in Stroud Green Road. Jai Krishna is a legendary vegetarian indian restaurant that has been rated as one of the best in London since the 60’s. Amazingly they have not changed the decor in nearly […]

This Is The Longest Evening Of My Life

How amazing is it that 24 is back on? Last night using the illegal powers of the interweb I watched episodes 1 to 4 of the new season 7 and I can’t stop being hyped by it. Season 6 was pants but they have really brought it back with this new season. So far (no […]

Penguin Art

I was going to be in Wales today and now I’m not. Its definitely a bonus in some ways, especially as I am about to go to my friend Louis’ house for free soup. He’s making it, its not free in some cup-a-soup deal. Or at least I hope not. I get excited about soup. […]

Free Parking

Last night was a pretty good start to gigging again after my two weeks of slob. I was booked in for two gigs, but sadly the first one was cancelled due to the bleakness of a January monday. It seemed a nice venue too, but I was pleased it was pulled as I felt rusty […]

Back In The Game

I can’t believe the American’s booed Sasha Baron Cohen’s only decent joke last night. Watching Golden Globe footage this morning, the Madonna gag would’ve gone down a storm over here, even during this post Sachs comedy witch hunt. I have instantly lost a lot of respect for America’s shallow image based Hollywood scene. I had […]

Sunday Productive Sunday

I woke up this morning and wrote two new sketches and some jokes. I’m not sure what has spurred on such creativity but it could possibly be that today I am not hungover which helps everything. Maybe 28 is a creative age especially when not full of booze. The sudden motivation I have acquired is […]
