Three Unwise Men

This blog was going to be about my dismay at yesterday’s poor attempt at a veggie roast. I had in my head about 15 complaints about the exact lack of effort that was put into throwing my poor selection of vegetables and two non-crispy roast spuds with an overly spongy Yorkshire pud onto my plate […]

Coventry, Squished People and Hardee

In two hours I’m going to have a roast. Thing is, I’m hungry right now. This is that terrible conundrum whereby if I eat now, then I won’t be hungry enough to eat all of the roast, and if I don’t eat now I’m going to complain about being hungry endlessly for the next two […]

Passing on Wisdom

There’s an odd thing your brain does when it knows you have to help out at a Comedy 4 Kids workshop. It starts by thinking of all the worst jokes you could possibly tell them, followed by which are your favourite highlights of say Jim Jeffries material. Then after you realise that is just too […]

The Angry Making Thing

Hey you. Do you like getting angry? Or are you a more patient human being than I could ever hope to be? Well lets put that patience to the absolute limits or make you get so angry you punch your own face, with my newly discovered ‘most angry making thing ever.’ What I’m about to […]

Professional Stand-Ins

When I arrived at the TV studio last night, they were in the middle of a rehearsal run through. Mark, Tim and Alex were all onstage but instead of the celebrity guests, there were two men, each of whom had a sticker on their chest stating which guest they were pretending to be. As questions […]

Sub-Standard

Adverts are generally full of lies. I know this. Its something I’ve been aware of for many years ever since I could read the tiny print on the bottom of the screen or the poster that said things like ‘please note this toy does not actually shoot web’ or ‘this pack of chewits is not […]

A Not Very Good Blog

I have a lot of things to blog about today but my brain is 100% not complying with what I want it to do. As you read, this is the 4th incarnation of today’s blogging attempt and as yet I’m already unhappy with it but laziness is insisting I keep typing this time otherwise it […]

Non-believers

Yesterday a 6 year old child told me that there was no way he could be scared of vampires as they didn’t exist. He then went on to explain to me and the entire audience at Comedy Club 4 Kids in Brighton, that monsters do not exist and that I am a ‘stupid’. Its very […]

Epic Transport Fail

It appears no matter what type of transport I invest in to get me to my gigs, they all have made a special effort these last few days to epicly fail me. Today, I need to get to Brighton. I’ve made the decision to get the train because trying to park in Brighton on a […]
