Mort

Death death death. No one likes death do they? Except funeral directors. And those Americans who make the electric chairs. In fact without death both of those people would be completely out of work. That and the world would be really full of old people. Ultimately it would really help with things like history lessons […]

I’ve already done a radio interview today which is pretty bloody productive for me by this time of day. Normally by now I’ve had two cups of tea, some toast, watched a bit of This Morning then shouted at Loose Women before quickly turning it off. Today however, I’ve done all of that and a […]

This blog is not allowed to blog about the question it was going to blog about. Sadly I can’t report who it was going to be about, what the subject matter was or why I’ve been told I can’t blog about it. So as freedom of speech has been destroyed by to the extent where […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Some of you might have noted that the title of today’s blog is also the title of Richard Herring’s daily blog. This blog has nothing to do with Richard Herring or anything his face has done, its just that the title matches perfectly to what I’m doing today. That and hopefully loads of his blog […]

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 […]
