It is international Pretend You’re A Time Traveller Day today, and as I am going to spend most of my day indoors writing, I won’t be able to run around pretending to be from a Dystopian future, nor would it be particularly sensible to host the whole of Fat Tuesday constantly screaming ‘WHAT YEAR IS […]
I’ll be honest. Its a bit too early for me to blog. I don’t officially wake up for several hours which will make all the activities I’m meant to do this morning probably a tad shit. This is a shame as the entire reason I’m up this early is to do some fun stuff. Firstly […]
Thats it. I feel festive. I tried to resist as long as possible but a number of events yesterday have firmly secured that I feel all a bit Christmassy. This is probably appropriate around now especially as today is officially St Nicholas Day, which is when said saint goes round leaving little presents in children’s […]
Gotta go teach kids stand-up again today, which once again will involve me being all a bit sleepy while I get asked if I ‘eat poo’ or ‘ wash my face in scrambled egg’ or any other number of seemingly insane questions. I quite enjoy this bit as it just provides me with easy material […]
My head doesn’t hurt as such but it has more made itself very clear exactly how heavy it is, and exactly how tired I am due to last night’s consumption of booze with Craine and Luurtsema. As penance for a lovely evening of wine, beer, whisky, nachos and some cakes that were better than expectation, […]
I’m trapped at home again today. I say trapped but its just that I have absolutely no reason to leave the indoors. My gig tonight has been cancelled, as was last night’s which was a massive shame as the audience consisted of 4 people and a dog. I’ve had gigs where dogs are in the […]
I blogged about music yesterday and I realised that I probably don’t blog about it enough. This is odd as I’m a very big music fan and if somebody threatened to take either comedy or music away from me, I would probably cope less well without music. Actually that’s crap. I wouldn’t cope if someone […]
I’ve decided I’m a fan of electro-swing. For those of you who are uninitiated in such things, it is not a type of futuristic playground ride, nor is it some sort of gangbanging with robots. Instead its a new music genre that has done that clever thing of being called after two music genres that […]
Happy Saint Andrews Day for any of you Scotch people what read this. Or if you are Scottish then it called St Androoos Day, I believe. I’m not really sure what St Andrew was famous for, apart from at some point being a fisherman. Technically if that’s all he’s famous for then I would suggest […]
How brilliant are baby monkeys? The answer, really very muchly brilliant. The one in question was only a month and a half old and was having a proper spak around its cage. Its mum was just casually holding its tale as a rudimentary leash to make sure it didn’t hurt itself, while she just sat […]
