If you want to buy anything from Amazon.co.uk, consider clicking on this link which will bring me untold riches, apparently.

Still at $19.87 on the Google cash!

Red Raw at The Stand, 20th October

Had a quality meeting with my comedy chums about our upcoming Glasgow Comedy Festival performance last night! Very enthused!!!!!

I used too many exclamation marks there…. they should be used sparingly as F. Scott Fitzgerald said, ‘An exclamation mark is like laughing at your own jokes.”

Anyhow. That went well. Then, I went through with Chris Scoular and Jeff Brighton to Red Raw at the Edinburgh Stand – Jeff was performing. It wasn’t the most enjoyable of nights for me – didn’t really feel in the mood for it somehow. Still, Jeff did well if not brilliantly: I think he is suffering from the repetition of the material. Also, didn’t feel that the audience wanted to laugh much; if that makes sense.

I’ve asked for more gigs at The Stand – I had to cancel my last slot – so here’s hoping!
